I am a small in home chinchilla breeder. I started breeding chinchillas because I wanted to share the joy and love that these amazing animals bring to our lives, and to help maintain and improve the species.
At XOXO Chinchillas, my program is rooted in a genuine passion for raising well-socialized, healthy, and happy chinchillas. I believe that socialization is one of the most important foundations for a chinchilla’s lifelong success as a companion, which is why it is at the center of everything I do. From an early age, each chinchilla is raised with consistent, positive human interaction, helping them build trust, confidence, and familiarity with everyday handling and care.
I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach, handling each chinchilla regularly and tailoring socialization methods to their individual personality. This allows them to develop calm, friendly temperaments and transition more smoothly into their future homes. Alongside frequent interaction, my chinchillas are provided with enriching environments filled with safe toys and activities that encourage curiosity, mental stimulation, and natural behaviors.
My commitment to excellence extends beyond my home. I am a proud member of the Empress Chinchilla Breeders Cooperative (ECBC) and the Mutation Chinchilla Breeders Association (MCBA), where I stay connected with a community of experienced, ethical breeders. I also strongly believe that showing my breeding chinchillas for unbiased evaluation is essential to maintaining and improving quality. Participating in shows allows my animals to be assessed against established standards, helping ensure I continue to produce chinchillas with sound structure, desirable traits, and exceptional overall quality.
At XOXO Chinchillas, my goal is to raise more than just beautiful animals—I strive to raise confident, well-adjusted companions that are ready to form meaningful bonds with their families. I am passionate about providing each chinchilla with the best possible start, ensuring they are not only healthy, but truly thrive in their forever homes.
