Just did a browse on Ebay and me and my bf came across two chinchillas for sale, we have reported it but it did make me mad. Its like they are selling some old clothes or something !!

Thank goodness it's been removed, but at the same time it worries me these owners still have them then. How can you treat a chinchilla like some inaminate object. Mine are my babies!

I know i always call my chinchillas my babies, it did sort of make me want them though because they didnt look in the best health and they looked like they needed a good sand bath... and maybe some good love and attention !! It also worries me that they still have them but hopefully if they need to go to a new home they will find a proper way to advertise their pets. I think im still sort of in shock that they were on there, they have a heart beat and they are not a piece of furniture or old clothing, poor things !!!

You have to wonder about some people, makes me upset!

You should never report animal listings on ebay, before advising them listings of rescues able to take the animal. All too often, when ebay listings are reported, people just dump the animals At least if you had sent them a list of rescues, there would be a chance the people would do the right thing.
