Chinchilla vs Cat 

LOL

Thats What my cats Think of my chinchilla

MOM DAD HELP A GIANT RATS CHASEING ME!!

XD

my cat wouldve made kebab out of this chinchilla already ngl 💀

squirrel too

Well... Damn son i never thought of it that way. Rat, Bunny, Squirrel. They gotz it all.

Simmons yeah they're considered a hybrid type animal

I think of them as squirrel rabbits

rat bunny

My chinchilla bites our 25 lb Maine coons toe hair or chews his tail then humps him or he tries my cat doesn't seem to appreciate the attempted rape so he goes into "whack a mole" mode

MegaMaxiepad i share your view it is quite disgusting.

MegaMaxiepad holy shit chinchilla coats exist? damn!

MegaMaxiepad so true fuck you petco and petsmart im a birb fan XD but i still support you

Makes a nice coat but ..very soft .

Your fucking right

Yeah, they clearly understand the needs of an exotic animal which is why experts totally agree with them. Idiot.

+Alyssa Wall Two replies? Upset much?

+Alyssa Wall Fallacy upon fallacy.

uh hello im sehun :)

Jessica Gurney Lol

Yeah, cats attack anything that runs away, run away from anything that moves towards them and climb on the head of any bald man who uses the computer.

And in the very most cases, the rat gets ripped apart.

+Auxkom Yeah, if you don't feed them and assimilate them for long enough.

+Auxkom it's a chinchilla not a rat and I doubt it will get ripped apart....

nope I never have how cute.

Warrior Wolf 123 it reminds me of jacky chan cartoons. chinchilla was the password lol

Warrior Wolf 123 i own a chinchilla

+Dazzle Are they friendly? How much do they cost? Do you need to keep the house to a certain temperature like suggested? Is that dust expensive? easy to find? how much do they live? What they eat? Should I get two for company? or are they solitary like hamsters? I'm an asshole that doesn't like to google things? Am I sorry for that? Yes I am. lmao.

TheDorianTube I used to have two chinchillas​. Price depends on color and if their make or female. The dust is easy to find in any store that carries pet supplies and to be honest I had the two chinchillas and they always fought

Mate like you won't believe. Haha

Warren Webber wow soooooo inapropreit

+Aiden Cloude wow so inappropriate

my god.. thats some seriously bad spelling

No cat boss

They're the softest animals in the Animal Kingdom. They have like 50 hairs per folicule or something like that.

Because cats carry a baceteria If scratched can kill a chinchilla. Dislikes is because cats and chinchilla shouldnt get mixed together

***** aren't bunnies and rabbits the same?

thats what they are saying

there is no such thing as a bunny... but there are rabbits and hares, and no they are not the same. One digs holes and one just runs around.

The wires are scary, my chin got electrocuted when I first had her. Now I don’t keep wires around. Defs not safe 🙃

sand.

AllAbout Lara I know I was just kidding

+AllAbout Lara *Dust

+flippedcheese Oh man, imagine a Chinchilla on cocaine ? That would be hilarious! :D

Grumpy ol' Boot I fucking know right?! x)

Always :)

im looking to adopt one right now..so many people buy small animals then after a year no longer want the responsibility..im hoping I can find a nice young one to keep for the next 15-20 yrs they seem like wonderful pets

+Michael Bauers Yes I learnt this too ahaha

Michael Bauers the only way we could even truly know how aggressive the chinchilla was being would be through the noises

won't it stress them tho ? They don't really seem to get along very well or maybe that's just me

vent flocon if they weren’t getting along well you’d know. And you wouldn’t be asking. It’s very apparent when a chinchilla is scared or really stressed. They were just playing

Obviously this cat has met the chinchilla before or is just a wuss so the chinchilla isn’t in danger

Shadow Fiend Or Minccino vs Purrloin.

The BrightDiamond TP Even better

I wanna call u Donald puff because ur name in pokemon is jiggley Puff and u have Donald’s trump hair

+Anar Chy Pretty much the same situation here

+Awesome amazing pets Actually that is a great idea for a future video the two chinnies at our house jump so high.

+Warren Webber how high can they jump?

+Gogreendreamer 123 1.8 metres, that's about 6 foot

it was probably thinking "what the heck is this giant fluffy Mouse!?"

+gretchen ortner Lots of maintenance and care needed though

Agreed, before i got this chinchilla i saw videos of people just using a plastic square open container, it is just way too messy that way.

Lol I thought it said, "when you're young you get sad" and I was wondering why something like that would play in a video like this haha

you cried? lol

dylan bird You d*ckhead

lol. ikr

well thats a huge mouse

soulcreampoopcontrol idc if I'm late it's a chinchilla

that is NOT a chimichanga

MegaDace ITS A CHINICHANGA

It's neither. That's the size they're supposed to be

Hi mate, I often wonder the same. Chi chi developed an inner ear infection at the age of over 11 years old. I took him to an exotic vet that said these animals do not survive these things. I spent $4k across 2 exotic vets to keep him alive. They did 2 operations, several courses of different antibiotics. It didn't matter. He was very clear 1 day that he had enough and it was time. Chi Chi was surrendered to me. All I had was a back story. He was with another kit. Apparently which ran off a balcony and passed away. The person that surrendered him to me was the 2nd person to have him. I arrived and he had a filthy rusted outside cage. It was raining like hell and a typical 10 degree celcius auckland evening. Which I think is where he got his temper from. I have never ever seen a chinchilla with such a temper. I still miss him incredibly much. He had another rescue friend Bella which I got from the SPCA. I still have her she is very healthy and I believe around 8 years old.

@@Mrwarrenlwebber Is the cat still alive?

Chinchillas can't take baths because their undercoat is too thick to dry, so it will get moldy. As a result, they "bathe" in dust.

Chinchillas take dust baths because they have so much hair that if they took a bath in water, they would literally grow mold.

jbmp1390 your creepy too

That says a lot about your personality

But I thought it was rolling in cocaine. I mean listen to the song.

Why? It’s the cutest thing ever. They just automatically know that it’s time to roll around in the dust when you set the container out. They don’t smell bad at all. They are very clean also in my experience They are very sweet . We have an 8 yr old female named Chloe and my wife absolutely loves her . The dust bath is far easier than a water bath would be. Just keep a little hand held vacuum near by and it’s no biggie at all .

why? are they super ultra sharp like getting bitten by a stapler? i got bit by a groundhog (also known as woodchuck for some people). and that literally felt like getting bitten by a stapler. went numb for a short while.

drakke125Channel mine has bit my ear multipe tiems while beign on my shoulder..that shit hurts lol

+drakke125Channel It is frekin sore i know, does it sometimes when ive stroked the cat

+Orghidan Stefan Most of the time it is as soft as you say but if i have touched the cat and tried to handle the chinny he proper nails my finger with his teeth but together they are sweet.

+Mad Moxxi ahhaha awesome experience mate.

+Chris Hall Do i know haha

Hi there: it is volcanic dust, not sure if it is exclusive to NZ. I tried red desert sand from australia but that was just way too messy. They bath in extremely fine grained sand, dust or ash but it needs to be bought from a pet store, can't just use any old sand :)

Cocaine !

Warren Webber Haha you probably had red dust everywhere!

don't use sand you dumb idiot!

Justin Knight No one said anything about using sand... Warren said don't use sand...

Fair point everything in life is subjective.

Yeah, the song is pretty damn atrocious.

+Jonathan Longoria fair point everything in life is subjective.

dont listen to any of these people, this song is a great choice

turn it down=problem solved

They are endless haha

Warren Webber Need one of those small robot vacuums it seems like.

The poop pebbles get everywhere

Brony Twelve Why would you take away our focus with that! you will go to hell for this!!!

+nomellocreampig That is actually a really good idea

YESSS THIS IS SOOOOO BAD! ITS WAY TO DANGEROUS

+joan smith 'That won't happen to my chin'? That is like saying my chin won't fall off one of its high wooden ledges? Accidents happen you clever human (NOT) and it is important to be prepared for them. Thanks for commenting my cat and chinchilla get on really well :)

Natural predator and prey? Right on! Two domesticated species separated by major climatic differences are suddenly thrown in the mix and a catastrophe is about to occur. Sounds a bit dramatic like your youtube name and narrow minded belief. The cat and the chinchilla actually get on very well together. I am assuming that you don't win any religious arguments and so you thought you would try another topic. Notice no question mark. Well as a vegan I would like to tell you that your knowledge of animal behaviour is shocking.

Just because an animal is a pet or 'domesticated' does not mean there natural instincts are suddenly gone. Its a plain fact. Cats and dogs are a predator species. Chinchillas are a prey species. Cats also pass diseases to chins. Similar to how a rabbit can live with pasteurella with no problems, but can pass it to a chin which can a pretty nasty way for them to die. The most certainly should not be out playing together like that.

DominionofGod Yes my chinchilla the other was at threat of being attacked by a praying mantis and I had to stop my cat from catching a sheep in the field. Humans can catch a cold, dogs can get cat flu. But you're not going to believe this, I mean seriously: science helped formulate A c.o.n.t.r.o.l.l.e.d e.n.v.i.r.o.n.m.e.n.t. Amazing right.

Warren Webber ikr man! lol well my cats and chin usually get alogn pretty well.. my old one we ut down got along with her super well.. sometiems she woudl swat at her..but usually was like 5-10mins after she got sick of the chinchilla chasing at her lol/.. but she and ellie were best friends.. he white oen though i try nto to keep thouse to around each other..the white one can get along with her..but usualyl after a few mins..she can get pretty mean so.. but the chin is usually good with the other cat we had.. i mean she would even try to flying headbutt the cat.. was jsut to funny

facebook.com/notes/lets-love-chinchillas/princess-auroras-story/395800567215256 And this is the happy story.

I enjoy it when bigots attempt to be informative about a topic they know nothing about. Your narrow minded sight should be taken from you and given to the physically blind because they would far more appreciate something as funny as this. I look forward to your reply.

He clearly knows his chin- as long as they don't chew plastic, it is fine to keep it in their cage. Some chins are chewers and some are not; of the 10 that I have right now, 2 are chewers of everything, so their cage has no plastic in it, but 5 others only chew certain plastics, which I keep out of their cages ( soft, margarine container plastic). The others are fine with anything in their cage, and only chew wood. Chinchillas are some of the smarts animals out there; a study was recently done at Stanford that compared their intelligence to Squirrel monkeys and parrots. My chins are more my companions than my pets; they have their own tv, and choose their ownshows- well, the 3 that enjoy television do- and you better watch out if you try to watch something that they don't like- they love Phineas and Ferb and Adventure Time. Each chin has its own personality, and they cannot be lumped into " they all do this"just like you cannot do it with people . A chinchilla will not screw around- if that cat was actually scaring it, the chin would have taken it down and gone back to its cage for dinneralready-they may be considered prey animals, but they don't act anything like any prey animal I have ever seen ( and I have kept and bred many different kinds).

sweets08816 haha should see mine..there is not anythign she wont chew.. she seriously will chew anything.. evne has tried to chew the dry wall off her bedroom o.o.. thought we try to keep lastic away from her for sure and anythign else.. my cas usualyl dont bother with her much.. but they are old.. like almsot 20 yrs old.. and shes liek eh 1 yr maybe maybe almsto 1.5 yrs old so obvious shes super hyper..but my old cat we had to put down.. she would be in the room with me.. and her and ellie would get along great for the msot part.. like one time i was sitting on my pc chair and the cat was behind me and ellie jumped on the chair and my cat bitched slapped her right off the chair lol.. but didnt realyl faze her cuz she still wanted to play with the cat lol but the cat usually let her be

+Let's Love Chinchillas! Some people need clarification (ie. you). 1 This is not an example video of how pets should be placed together. 2 This is not a video that should be reproduced or attempted to be practiced by someone that purely is attempting to get publicity or trying to be a show-off. 3 You need to stop buying & breeding chinchillas pretending you rescue chinchillas. 4 Everything stated by anyone on youtube is an opinion and extremely subjective, open to debate and other opinions. 5 The previously rescued chinchilla and cat in my care get on really well.

+Warren Webber I don't need to do anything you tell me to do. I can buy any chinchilla I want, but I choose to buy from reputable breeders who don't abuse or neglect their animals. I can breed whomever I want, but if I do breed I will choose to only breed animals that are pedigreed, vet approved, shown, and approved by judges and mentors. I rescue animals who need to be rescued, not re-homed. There is a fine line between the two, all of which you wouldn't know about me unless you've met me face to face but I assume we never shall meet. The difference between you and I? I don't put my animals in dangerous situations like you simply for a video to share on RU-vid. They will get on as well as they do until one ends up in the dirt.

+Warren Webber you're simply a one hit wonder on youtube at your poor pet's expense

+Let's Love Chinchillas! Wow super reply do you have meetings in your facebook group to decide on replies. Agenda it for next meeting.

+Let's Love Chinchillas! Worst response I have ever had, not even sure how I am going to sleep after this. haha. You are clearly missing the point of animal husbandry. To you it is just a hobby and something that makes you happy or even brings in income perhaps (the worst kind), however for me I accept animals and provide a home in which they are safe, comfortable, free to explore and best of all... incident free. But please carry on trolling, I implore you to continue questioning my techniques but kindly on behalf of chinchillas,., you really should stop breeding them.

Hi there, so sorry for late reply. In my opinion it can be a very scary situation for a chinchilla not used to cats. My current chinchilla girl would not jump out of her cage for about 7 years with the cats roaming. Currently she is getting more confident. Never ever forced them to be together. If they interact I am present within 2 meters. Younger cats are more inquisitive and may be a bigger problem than older cats which aren't generally bothered (not all cases, just in general). Dont leave them alone by themselves please :)

+ProdigyAngel Thanks for that I actually appreciate similar experiences

+Rebecca Poitras haha
