Sage

[Sage12]

Sage is a female standard grey chinchilla. She is about three years old. One thing she has learned which is very funny is that when I walk over the cage and start reaching for the treats, she will place her paws on the cage and stare at me.

She looks so cute.
Does it mean she's grateful?

She's very cute!

Thank you! She seems to be. She is probably a little spoiled though. I can walk by her cage and she will come down from her tube and expect scratches and treats.

Yeah, that's part of being cute, isn't it?

Oh definitely. She is adorable and knows it too.

Feeling like she's the center of attention?

 

[Chinmin]

Hey, how's Sage, any new skills?

 

[Sage12]

She is doing good. However, she has decided that even though I give her many toys and pumice stone to chew, she wants to chew on the metal house I have in her cage.

Maybe challenging because it's metal?

 

[Sage12]

I think it may be a learned behavior because I would give her attention when she would do it.

Yes, like she's feeling entitled? Cute chin, though.
