One thing about chinchillas: they love to watch television.  We learned this from our friends the Blackes, who have rescued hundreds of chins and have many, many as pets.  And not just any television: cartoons.  We got cable hooked up on Tuesday in what will be the "chinnie room" at home, and Chihiro spent the night watching Boomerang, the classic cartoon network.  (We don't think she's ready for "Adult Swim"; we'd rather have her watching Penelope Pitstop and George of the Jungle.)
