Welcome to Chiquito's Page - let me introduce you......

Chiquito is a Silver Chinchilla, and came to live with us in November 1999. He was so tiny when we first collected him, he has certainly grown! Chiquito is very inquisitive and friendly, and it didn't take long to tame him.

Chiquito likes to run around our living room and hall, but he has had his fair share of gnawing at our skirting boards and tearing wall paper - you can't take your eyes off him for a second!! He loves to jump and climb on things, namely the dining room chairs, coffee table and our sofas. Everything that he see's he must test it out first to see if it's edible!

Chiquito has a strong personality, and he will persist at his little challenges until he succeeds, for example trying to jump on the window legdges and the diningroom table, or pulling CD's out of their wracks to name only but a few!
