Adoption

Adoption Overview

Welcome to our Adoption page, we are glad you are looking at adopting a Chinchilla as chins make wonderful pets.

Chinchillas live long lives averaging 16-20yrs. If you are unable to commit to that length of time we have plenty of lovable senior chins too.

It does not matter to us whether you are looking to adopt now, later or just want to learn about Chinchillas. Starting is as simple as setting an appointment at our Sunnyvale, CA (SFBay Area) location where you will learn how wonderful chins are with a simple Chin 101 introduction while interacting/playing with the chins. All our appointments are handled in-person at our Sunnyvale location as we have no Online/Virtual Meeting capabilities.

We recommend you do not get a cage until after Chin 101, as we will go over cage/cages accessories during the session. Yes, we do have some new/used Midwest Critter/Ferret Nation cages for sale along with wheels, tunnels, shelves, and other cage accessories (visit our online store to see availability). If you are not ready, we can hold a selected chin for a few days until you are ready to bring the chin home.

Hopefully, if you are ready, you will find a chin with a personality that matches you and creates a bond that will last a long time. You can even take the chin home that day.
