Foster Chins -- Introducing Henry!

Henry is another chin of ours that is currently in a foster home.  He is fostered in Chicago.  He was not initially a chin that was a candidate for a foster home, as we usually send the problem chins.. .but then he decided he wasn't comfortable here at the rescue, and started losing weight and eating less.  Long story short, after moving him to a foster home with more schedule and consistency, he has gained weight, is eating well, and is doing awesome!

Henry is the chin who's been here the third longest, after only Livia / Miracle and Cheechee.  He was born 6/2013, which means he is currently 6.5 and will be 7 years old in a couple months!  He is an awesome little guy! 

Because he didn't do well in the busy rescue, we don't believe he'd do well in a super busy household with a lot of kids / pets / things going on.  Here's what our foster had to say about him

Henry is a very vibrant and energetic chinchilla. He loves to cuddle and play outside his house with his humans in a safe play space. He’ll need to go to a home that has the time and energy to devote to him and he’ll require a chin spin (wheel) for his extra energy. Since he seems to love human interaction, I’ve found that he is happiest when at the very least I give him scritches when I walk by and spend a few minutes with him on a consistent basis. He’s really good at begging for attention with this super adorable face (he wins 9 times out of 10)! He’s been good with children 7 and up.

And of course, some recently updated pics of him below!

Henry is available for adoption for $65 during our current sale.  This guy wants a nice home of his own... is it you??
