• It is important that your chinchilla not get wet
  so dont bathe them in water. This is because
  they have dense fur that is almost impossible to
  dry in the air. So moisture stays on their skin
  and makes this area perfect for problems with
  fungus on the skin. So if your pet gets wet
  accidentally then rub the fur with a towel or a
  hair dryer on cool. In other words, dont let
  your pet get wet.

• So, of course you are wondering how to keep your
  chinchilla clean simple, use dry or bath dust
  put in a large container. Your chinchilla will
  love it and roll around like a kitten with new
  kitty litter. A dry or dust bath will remove any
  excess dirt and oil that have accumulated on its
  fur.

• Chinchillas also need to get plenty of exercise
  regularly due to stress as well as getting
  overweight. The signs of stress are when your
  usually loving chinchilla gets hostile and is
  biting and scratching not just you but other
  chinchillas that you might have. So you might
  want to think about getting your pet an exercise
  wheel for inside the cage. If your home is rather
  peaceful and your pet will be in very little
  danger get him or her, a large ball or race car
  that they can roll all around the house in. Let
  your pet play with these wheels especially if you
  notice any signs of stress. Be sure to take a

  same sex if you dont want any little ones
  running around everywhere also. The two will be
  great companions for each other and then you and
  your family dont have to be chasing chinchillas
  through the house every night to put them to bed.
