Ah of course. Just like birds and most other pets.
You mean you want two. Keeping just one is not good as they need to be kept at least in pairs so that they don't go depressed, loony etc.

To see a world in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

You can easily get chinchilla sand in every pet shop. My gerbils also loved to take sand baths, so I would buy them chinchilla sand, it's a fine sand like you can find in a sandy desert. You have to clean it regularly as after the bath they like to use it as a toilet. at least my gerbils did. I gave them away when I went to university as I couldn't take them with me and at home nobody was really happy to care for them...
Have you ever touched a chinchilla? They are about the softest thing on earth. And they take dust baths to keep their fur clean. You have to have a bowl of special dust in their cage for them to roll in to keep their fur clean. Strange. But they are unbelievably nice to touch!

Eep..I never really thought about the implications of university on pets..I'll be leaving for uni next year and then I'd have to worry about my budgie, who's aggressive with everyone else but me.

We are now really trying to find a home for Kitty, the cat that showed up at our house on Christmas. But here is a picture of how bored my cat Morgan was today.

Haha! So cute! My cousin's rabbit used to roll around into weird positions as well. She was incredibly fast..Always had to watch where you were sitting and walking when she was having a wander around the house..She was a black rabbit as well, which made it harder to see her at times.
