Dear Tiddleywink,


Some of the advice given when you posted a week or two ago still is very good. I tried searching on www.dogpile.com for Chinchilla Rescue and came up with a lot of links -- some more helpful than others. A lot of chinchilla rescue work in UK, apparently. There are several sites in the US that frequently include chinchillas, although none that I visited have any now. I was particularly taken with the info posted from San Diego, CA, combined shelters (other creatures):
Calif. (San Diego) Animal Rescue (Other)

You might try searching for rescue sites in your vacinity.
