The Chinchillas' Full Morning Routine | Get Ready With Us! 🐭

- Hi guys!
We wanted to share a more in depth video of how I start the day, every day, with the Chinpals. Remember, this is just basic care, and even though it may seem like I'm going above and beyond for them, daily cleaning and maintenance is absolutely necessary. Now, having a whole room for them, the shop vac, the shelving, the Ruggable Rug, etc, those are human extravagances that are definitely not necessary, but sure are helpful!
Like I said at the end of the video, taking care of chinchillas is not extraordinarily difficult, but it does last for 15+ years; and with a pet who isn't even that affectionate! I think a lot of people are perfectly fine vacuuming up poops every day, but the fact is, chins don't really want to snuggle! Ask yourself before getting a chin: "Am I okay with an expensive, high maintenance pet that doesn't want much to do with me, for the next 15-20 years?" Odds are, probably not, which is completely fine because you canjust hang with us and enjoy the Chinpals! ❤️
Let me know in the comments what questions you have or how you start the day with your own pets! 🐕 🐈 🦜 🐠

I am so happy that you let everyone know that this pet is not a pet that usually likes to be touched. So many buy them because they are so cute and then get bored of them because they cant snuggle with them. So many chinchillas are for sale because the owners dont want them anymore. So sad. I have two males myself and I love them so much. Both of them pee in a glas pan like the one you have. So easy to clean. Ikea sell those very cheap aswell 😀 I never planned to have chinchillas but 4 years ago when my neighbour asked me if I could take care of their chinchilla for 6 weeks while their apartment was renovated I said yes. They came to me with Emil 3 years old. He was living in a small bird cage!!!! I had googled about chinchillas before I got him and also talked to a breeder. OMG! Everything Emil had was not good for him. Wrong food, paper bedding and that small cage. He only got to have playtime once a week in the bathroom while they where cleaning his cage. Sand bath once a week only. They fed him 4 raisins a day. When he came to me I set up a playground for him in my living room and every night while I was watching tv in the sofa he came to me and sat on my legs and had fun running around in his playground. After 2 weeks my neighbour asked if I would have him permanently. I got him a proper chinchilla cage and after 6 months I got him a friend to live with. Little baby Milo came and he was then 3 months old. They make me happy everyday 😍
how did you have time to write that and great story
@@drea2152 there is always time when it comes to chinchillas ☺
Wow! Thank you so much for saving that little guy! He must be soooo happy now, what a horror story! And yeah, I absolutely tell the truth about owning chins 😅 mine are unusual sometimes and I want to make it known most are not okay with handling!
@@chinpals How do you interact with chinchillas if you can’t snuggle them?
I love chinchillas a lot so even if they don't want to be touched, I'll just watch them play and ill pet them whenever I can.
They're so ridiculously cute, I can't handle it! There should be laws against such levels of cuteness!
I love the way you take such a good care of your chinchillas!!🥰
Thank you for your beautiful care of these Chinchillas!! If ALL humans were like you, it would be a kinder world for Animals!!👍🤗💕🥰
No toxic plastics, I love that!!👍🥰
Imagine having to clean up that every single morning. Hey kids, think twice before falling for their cuteness.
Thank you so much for this video. I just rescued two chins from a not great situation so I'm learning about them and this video helped a lot! Thanks!
You certainly take excellent care of your pets. Love your cage set ups. 👍I am considering getting one or two chinchillas but first I have to do more research. Your videos are great.
These videos are so calming and nice, I love when you pet them gently :D so fluffy! Truly amazing little animals. I loooove them so much :0
Such dedication to run the routine every morning! It sounds like having cute babies that never grow up haha Thanks for the video, it was very interesting to see your routine in more depth. Looking forward to the next video :D
Chinchillas are so cute, I love them 💕I’m so glad I found your channel ❤
Little chins having their play time is Adorable and cute beyond words
Twilight Chinchillas mades adorable chin furniture! Custom pieces that are stunning. Stuff for piggies, hammies and ratties too.
They look so happy and healthy
For some reason this video cured my heartburn 😔🤌
When I am able to get my own place, my chinchillas are going to get their own room! Right now they are in my room and don't behave enough to free roam. One of my chinchillas likes to shew things and the other likes to get stuck behind things lol. So they currently just have a play pen and if the temperature permits, they can go in my huge sunroom. But when they get their own roomI am also thinking of getting two more chinchillas so I'll have 4.
are you planning on making more videos for your official chinchilla care series? looking into getting a chinchilla and love your videos!
hi! yes definitely, I’m so sorry for the delay in that. I didn’t realize how much time long form content takes to edit, create, and plan, and it became really intimidating. But yes, absolutely! And your comment is inspiring me to finish the next episode! 💪
@@chinpals Awesome, excited to see what you come up with! take all the time you need!
These everyday routines are so pleasant to implement! Because we love our pets and it is important to pay attention to each part of their life. Cleaning among them :)
I love that the autogenerated subtitles at 8:51 say "applause" when you're giving Knox his stick. He is applauding the stick with his teeth, hehehe :)
I love your cages ❤❤❤
All of them are so cute
They look so soft....I bet they would make a nice coat
I LOVE THEM❤
Where do you get the metal piece you put at the bottom to keep the bedding in?! I want to change to this type of cage rather than fleece. I have three cages and it’s a lot
I absolutely love your set up it gives me more ideas but where did you get those wood steps and add on ones ? And do you not let them play together? Is that stone you have on the flooring of the cage?
Omg can u pleaseeee make more videos of the care series???
I love this new sub btw
I ❤ chinchills ☺
Where do you get all your ledges from? Ive been looking for those condo type ledges for my chins but I cant find any good ones!
i find it so interesting that you are able to have aspen bedding in their cages! i have 4 chinchillas, and ive always caught them eating the bedding, i personally use fleece fabric. did you start using the bedding when they were babies? tia
Do you just lay the tile in the cage or do you set it and grout it?
what cages are these?
new here and doing lots of chin research where did you buy or make the tile ledges !?
Once my brother moves out for college we should have an extra room for the birds and chins
Hi! Thank you for this amazing and useful video! Is there any chance you could make a list of those amazing wooden shelves and houses? I’ve seen some of it on Amazon, but won’t be able to find it again ))
Most of it’s actually from Etsy and not Amazon! We recommend PandamoniumPets and Woodnstuffga on Etsy, but also NOLA chin rescue, ChinChic, and Whimsys Menagerie online stores 😊
@@chinpals Oh wow, thank you s much! Those stores are just amazing )
Sadly my black velvet did not recover from the anaesthetic after having his teeth filed down at the vets. In his wonderful life ‘Chivers’ did not like cuddles. He could jump down a whole fight of stairs! Love biting any type of wood almost just to taste it. He would make a hell of a noise after 8pm in his square meter cage. On putting my head close to him he would make many brilliant sounds and put his little hand on my cheek. He loved his sand bath. It is great to see your babies so interactive.
What kind of water bottles do you use for your cages? I have a Kaytee one that always leaks. I wanna replace it but I don't know any good brands.
I've had four chinnies but can't have one now where I live. I enjoy your videos as a substitute to ownership! When do they get their dustbaths? Do you do that in the cages or out in the play area? Can they all be out for bath time, or one at a time?
Loved seeing your process!!! We just went from 3 chins (our youngest passed unexpectedly 💔😞) back up to 4 chins (we adopted baby twin girls! 🐭🐭)! Cleaning cages becomes such an important part of daily/weekly chores!
May I ask a few questions?
- Where do you buy your thin apple sticks?!? I can’t seem to find any quality apple sticks that aren’t suuuuper thick and not yummy smelling to my chins?
- We have the MidWest Critter nation for our older bonded pair, but don’t love the “storage space” beneath the first floor! (It makes it very tall, and they love to hide underneath it! 😅) I noticed you have your cages on the floor, and wondered if you could show us how to do the same for ours? It would be even better if we could keep the wheels on, but I’m thinking that won’t work with how the cage is constructed? (Wish I had a brand new cage to test the theory? 😂)
Hey! Thank you so much and I’m so sorry for your loss 😢
First Q, we actually get them from a friend, BUT we like NOLA Chin rescue and Whimsys Menagerie for sticks!!
And for the cage, you can just put the cage on its side and unscrew everything so there’s just the little metal stubs sticking out. They will tear up your floor though, so might want to put it on carpet or a rug or something if you have nice floors! The wheels sadly can’t secure into the cage this way though!
Where did you get that food bowl? it looks really cute!
where did u getv the cage?
Are you able to feed a chinchilla farm fresh hay or should you just stick to special hay for small pets?
Kudos to you ❣️ how do you manage vacations?
Oh I wish I could feel his soft coat beautiful sweeties ❤
Would you mind telling whats the name of the wheel you got them? Or a link to buy. I have tried to find one that fits the size of a Chinchilla but had no luck
Hello! I’m planning to get a chinny in about a year and am determined to knowing all I need to about taking care of a chin. I was wondering if a vacuum hurts them in any way? Like with their sensitive hearing?
And how do you make sure that the vacuum stays running and not clogged up due to the little bedding pieces? What do you do if I’d does get clogged?
I love your videos! I am a first time chin mom and it’s so nice to have something to reference and learn from. Sometimes I watch to reassure myself that I’m doing correct things with her, and I really appreciate that validation. How can you tell where they pee on the bedding? I only have my one girl and it’s hard for me to spot where she goes in the aspen bedding. I do have one layer/shelf of her cage that I line with fleece, so she could be peeing there? I really don’t know where she goes haha. Thank you for sharing!!
I thought they needed to have a friend...
doesn't the hoovering scare your chinchillas ? or do they get used to the noise of the hoover etc ?
Where did you buy the huge metal house and wood house on the floor
I need to know where you got that black/metal house with the ramp.
Amazon! Felix and Fido Safe Haven XL, it’s a recent purchase and I’m obsessed!
I actually wish you did more instructional videos! We’ve had our chin for 4 years and I have no clue how to set up my room for her in the past she chewed the crap out of my doors, walls and baseboards! I think there is some metal that can be used but I have no clue what to use or set up a room and there are literally no helpful videos online!!!!
I do the same thing when i clean
Did they have to get used to the shop vac? does it frighten them? I got a shop vac but it's a lot louder than I thought it would be so I'm worried to spook them with it.
Hi ! Question, i thought the bedding was bad for the chi’s. Is it ok because its just for the bathroom or ?
Hi how much does a cage cost
Btw im getting a Chinchilla and Linus is so adorable❤
So where did U get the sticks from that they hold / chew on. Like do U buy them somewhere ?? Xx
I have several African pygmy dormice. They look like small, chinchillas and act like it to, except they are smaller than your palm.
What cage do you use because I’m going to buy a chinchilla but idk what cage to buy
where'd you get the hay holder from?
CUTEeeee
Hi! I recently got chinchillas and would love to learn somethings from you and ask several questions!
Is it ok they my chinchilla won’t bound with any chinchilla I’ve tried with different chinchillas but she keeps fighting/ peeing on them
Hii I'm Thinking Of Getting 2!! Do They Bite?? If They Do Does It Hurt Like Make U Bleed??
What brand of aspen bedding do u use?
I Love them I wish I cod have one
can i substitute every wood on the cage with stainless steel? im avoiding the Chinchilla to pee on it or chew it, i will make it blunt ofc so it won't be hurtful for them im accidentally jump on the edge.
Where are the cages from?
Question: Do you just clean the pee off the ground with a napkin? I don't know what to use or how to do it.
Can you do a video on your type of cages and where you got the things inside?
The cages are critter nation for the horizontal bars and ferret nation for vertical bars!
Where do you get the hammock?
What kind of cage do you use? Where can I get one?
Where did you get the cages from?
Does that mean that you keep Linus away from the rest?
I clean all of my bird and reptile cages with bare hands. I can't be bothered with putting on gloves EACH time I see animal waste. Soap is an amazing cleaner.
Such dedication to their morning routine! Those cages are also huge! I'd love to increase the space for our little guy. What brand and model are they?
they look like the model 162 of the critter nation cages. i’m not entirely sure tho
Aren't you supposed to have more than 1 so they have a friend?
Why not get a large dog cage and put all the enrichment in it?
Where do you get all the accessories in your cages.
Most of it’s actually from Etsy and not Amazon! We recommend PandamoniumPets and Woodnstuffga on Etsy, but also NOLA chin rescue, ChinChic, and Whimsys Menagerie online stores 😊
Can you do a video about how to make cage chew toys?
Do they play with each other if no the why
Ill be more tha happy to know
Also love your content
how are the chins around loud noises like your shop vac? Are they just used to it?
I think they are yeah, it’s only on a few minutes a day so even if they don’t care for it, it’s not much!
Im thinking about adopt or buy a chinchilla 😊 You can aconsej for mi? Im shpanish if I put some think bad wrote sorry😅
What are the cages Called?
Your chinchillas are cool I have chinchillas that don’t even let me touch them if you can make a video about if you have a chinchilla that bites you how to train it not to and be playful but your chinchillas are also cute
У меня тоже живет шиншилла Шушик. 😊
I have my chinchilla for about year now she sleeps a lot but at night she very active so my question is when she starts getting older will she more active in the morning
Chinchillas ARE evening/ nights active…
If you don’t interrupt her/his nature, they will stay like this.
