Chinchillas recognize their owners, and chinchillas recognize their owners. Some chinchillas only recognize one owner in their lives. If they are kept for a long time, they will become more dependent on their owners. Chinchillas, like many animals, will feel close to the owner who raises them. This is a normal conditioned reflex. After changing to a new owner, because it is unfamiliar with the environment and the new owner, it will show behaviors such as ignoring others and being angry. This is a normal reaction.

Cultivation of emotions in chinchillas

1. First, provide a comfortable living environment. Chinchillas are raised in cages. They are very active. The larger the The more space they have, the better for their health. Chinchillas like to jump, so multi-level springboards should be arranged. Do not use cedar or pine for chinchilla cabins, as they release phenolic compounds that are very powerful and can cause serious respiratory, skin, and liver problems in chinchillas. It is recommended that the chinchilla house you choose should be at least 50cm long, 25cm wide and 25cm high.

2. Feeding them is actually not difficult at all. Just use about a large teaspoon of "Chinchilla Food" every evening when they first wake up, plus a small amount of alfalfa. Grass will do. Alfalfa is their favorite hay, so don't just pick some weeds from the roadside. There are also alfalfa bricks pressed into cubes that they can use to grind their teeth. Remember to disinfect the kettle when changing the water. Algae growing in kettles can cause liver problems, severe diarrhea, or kill them. Use bottled or filtered water, not tap water. Chinchillas are not immune to naturally occurring water bacteria, which can be fatal to chinchillas.

3. They also like to eat many snacks such as dried raisins, melon seeds and even a small piece of apple. There are also snacks made specifically for them available on the market. Although they love this type of food, be sure not to overfeed them. Because they will become a partial eclipse and may also cause gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea and other phenomena, they are not beneficial to the body.

4. Chinchilla food actually contains enough vitamins, but if your chinchilla is thin, you can add a little liquid vitamins to the water for it to drink. In addition, place a mineral stone or wood block for small animals to allow them to grind their teeth and absorb minerals.

5. When holding a chinchilla, hold one of your hands under the chinchilla’s belly and the other hand on the chinchilla’s back. By supporting its hind legs and buttocks with your hands, your chinchilla will feel safe. Don't hold the chinchilla too tightly and allow them to move gently. Do not squeeze the chinchilla's body because they have what is called a "floating rib cage" and your movements can cause serious internal injuries to the chinchilla.

6. Appropriately increase the frequency of appearing in front of chinchillas, talk and communicate with chinchillas more, and use gentle language. You can usually feed it some favorite food and hold it with your hands to increase interaction and cultivate affection. Play more with your chinchilla. You can use some of its favorite toys to play with it.To enhance feelings.
