Chinchillas for rehoming-special needs

Ames IA

Description

Ezlo and Gizmo are two bonded boys looking for a new home. Please be aware that Ezlo has some special needs, and that the boys are inappropriate for homes with children due to this. Gizmo is 8 years old, and is the sweetest chinchilla I have ever met. He loves scratches and will run up to you to let you scratch his chin. He is super sweet, loves all kinds of treats like rose hips and petal and is an energetic ball of fun. He loves jumping around, although sometimes he miscalculates and bonks his head like a dummy. Ezlo's age is unknown due to his background. He lived the first years of his life neglected and as such barbers his fur and requires someone who will keep the temperature low for him as he gets seizures from overheating. He is a no touch chinchilla, but loves to take treats from my hands and acts like a big tough guy by barking and making funny noises, although he has never bitten even under stress. He adores coming outside the cage and sprinting around with Gizmo and really loves tunnels. Both boys require someone knowledgeable about care, and will require proof of space for their set up and a phone call to verify you are the right home before they can go home. Please be aware that these boys will live another decade, require the temperature to be 70 degrees or lower, and have very specialized diets before you message me. The boys will come with their double ferret nation cage, wooden shelves, wooden hides, apple sticks, wooden chews, food, hay and dust and dust bath. Price is $500 firm. If you message me please let me know if you have any background with chinchillas.
