I just got my first chinchilla today. Her name is Rinny, or Rin for short. She is only a few months old.
Her birthday is on September 19th.
She is a violet with sapphire blue genes I believe.
She seems to be enjoying her new cage already and she lets me pet her but just for a short period of time, then she jumps around and climbs on things.

Here are some pictures of her!
