A squirrel-like rodent. some people like chinchilla coats, BUT DO NOT BUY THEM! YOU WOULDN'T SKIN A HAMSTER, SO DO NOT BUY FUR COATS! Dont forget they are the cutest animals to animal lovers, but to everyone else: Fur Coats and Uglies. (PS they have the thickest fur of all mammals!!!)
Chinchillas are mammals in the order rodentia (rodents). They have a squirrel like tail and like squirrels can hold food in their hands to feed. Chinchillas have very thick fur which is too dense to harbour parasites such as fleas and ticks. In the wild they "bath" in volcanic ash to remove debris and oil from their fur
There are 2 known wild species: Chinchilla chinchilla (an endangered Bolivian species) and Chinchilla lanigera (the Chilean species from which the common pet is descended).

The chinchilla is classified as a crepuscular rodent. The word "crepuscular," in regards to animals, birds and other species, means "active at twilight or just before dawn."
The website Chinchilla Advisor advises that chins are nocturnal, and this should be taken into consideration before the purchase or acquiring of a pet chin. A chinchilla needs to have a quiet indoor location during daytime so that it can sleep.
A chinchilla is a rodent, a close cousin to the rat and mouse. It has large front teeth, like a rodent, which continuously grow. It also is small in size, has fur, and a tail, which most other rodents have.
