My new pets

My family has grown wif two new memebers. They are Chin Chin & Chi Chi. Who are they?? They are my 2 new pets, 2 super cute chinchilla.

Hmmm, many have said that chinchilla r ez to take care. They eat dry products, they clean themselves and require little care. Somehow, after having them for 2 days, I feel that it's not that ez afterall.

Jus the very first day I've them, I've gotten a shock. Probably we din close the cage door properly, the first nite I came home to see them, I saw Chin Chin running itself at the balcony. The minute he heard us, he starting jumping around and within seconds, he was on the resting wall abt to jump off. Arhhh, jus the first day, I tot I was to witness my pet committing suicide. Luckily, we stood still to watch hoping it will not doing anything stupid. Soon, he jumper back to the ground. We quickly picked him up and put him into the cage. I guess tat's all the freedom he will get.

Chin Chin is the super active one, can't even let him out for a second. Chi Chi is much more tame, less active. Thus, I mge to let him out to roam around the mini balcony, taking pictures of him.

I'm still not too sure how to take care of them. They seems to be really afraid of us. I din wanna frighten them, so I hardly disturb them. I tried to talk to them like I talk to my puppy, but it's a world of different. For Kirin understands when I say come, sit, no, etc. Also, Kirin is toilet trained and knows hor to roam around the house without getting into mischief or danger.

I guess for me, a puppy is easier to take care of though Kirin is an attention seeker. At least I'm more comfortable wif her. Nonetheless, I'll try my best to take care of my chinchillas.
