I wish chinchillas were naturally friendlier
A local pet shelter just got 26 chinchillas that need homes and OMG they are so cute.

I wish they were cuddlier like kittens, though. We chinchilla-sit for our friends sometimes so I do get a bit of a chin-fix. 
Re: I wish chinchillas were naturally friendlier
oooh, I love chinchillas! I wanted one for a while but ended up getting a sugar glider instead because of the size.
I would love to have one!
They got 26? Damn.
Yay cuteness!
Oh, he's fine. He'll let you pet him and pick him up, but they're just rodent-y, like hamsters and guinea pigs. They're not so much interested in hanging out with you the way that cats and dogs are. More friendly than hedgehogs, though!
Well, thank gawd for that!
