I love this organization! I can personally vouch for how well their chinchillas are taken care of and how much consideration goes into placing them in good homes. And the organization puts their donations right into caring for the chinchillas. Always happy to donate!

Wonderful people who are so good — they’ve rescued so many chinchillas, and take good care of them while finding them permanent homes where they will be loved. Plus, once they place the chinchilla, they are supportive to owners, ready to answer any questions. No question is too small! I’ve adopted 2 chins and happy all around!
Furthermore, this is a well-run organization. Strong management, finances, outreach, all staying true to their mission. I have a 20+ year career in the non-profit sector, thus speak from experience in such matters.
Michelle is truly a delight to work with. Having to surrender our fur babies after I had my first born, i was terrified to give them up. Michelle walked us through the entire process, reassured me about everything and even offered updates if I asked for them. I love chin friends - they put my heart and mind at ease and took great care of my babies. From what I heard, my two boys were the fastest adoption yet!! They came in on saturday morning and left by 3pm
This is an amazing operation run by an amazing lady who obviously cares for chinchillas so much! I have interacted with them on social media to help raise awareness for their efforts, and they are so kind and appreciative - especially with their 20+ new chinchillas that were taken in from a hoarding situation, they need all the help and support they can get.
We needed to find a new home for our wonderful 12 year old Chin, Freddy. This organization was so warm and understanding. They made the whole process so easy and found a new forever home for Freddy within days. They even said they would keep him forever if they were not able to place him as he is such a little love. I can't say enough wonderful things about this kind. compassionate organization. And what they have just done for 22 chins recently rescued from a terrible hoarding situations makes these people truly angelic.
My boyfriend and I found out about this rescue when we were interested in a chinchilla. After months of thought we decided we we're ready and Chin Friends was very helpful. They were great in helping us pick the right one and give us as much educational support as we needed to be comfortable. They truly have an amazing operation.
