They do it accidentally, so get a heavy bowl.

But sometimes, it does it with purpose.

The one I have, when it got spoiled, grabbed his bowl and threw it down from cage 3rd floor and emptied the contents of the bowl when it wanted a treat. I got extremely pissed and did not give it anything until it ate up the food that lay on the floor. Now it's not spoiled anymore... LOL

A pet chinchilla dosent need much to survive, but to live a good mental and physical life, they do need more stuff. A chinchilla will need the basics: a good sized cage that they can not escape, a ferret cage is good, a water bottle, a food dish, and chinchilla food. Also they will need bedding for the bottom of the cage, wood chews to keep their teeth short, a dusting house and bath dust to keep themselves clean, and an igloo or somewhere for them to hide. All of those things can be found at a pet store
