American Chinchillas have a
short coat that is fairly easy to care
for. Weekly
groomings with a slicker brush are fine,
except during
shedding season when bi-weekly grooming
may be
required.

Breed
From Ashley, Maryland I have had my American Chinchilla rabbit for six years. The are larger than
most breeds which, in my opinion, makes them easier to handle. Mine tends to be
a bit aggressive but he loves to throw around his rattle.
