Description
Native to South America, chinchillas are small mammals known for their luxurious, soft fur and boisterous, playful personalities. They are quiet creatures and very low maintenance pets. However, there's a lot you need to know to keep this long-lived rodent happy and healthy.
This updated edition of the Chinchilla Handbook provides a wealth of information on:
- History, including ancestral origins and human interactions
- Guidance on choosing the right chinchilla for you and your family
- Creating a safe and natural housing environment
- Dietary needs, including good and bad vegetables, amounts, and the importance of hay
- Understanding behavior and social cues
- Keeping your chinchilla healthy – potential concerns and common preventions
- Planning for and raising kits when births are expected
- More!
The Chinchilla Handbook and other books in The Pet Handbook series have a large page count and are written, designed, and illustrated with more extensive and detailed coverage of each title's subject pet.
