Introduction

My wife and I have two chinchillas, four rabbits, two rats, and a gerbil. All are of course house pets.

Our chinchillas came from the Erie County SPCA, where we adopted them a couple of years ago as a pair.

I am a mathematician. My wife is currently studying comparative psychology and animal cognition. In fact, I found this forum while searching for information on the eyesight of chinchillas, as we were trying to see the types of visual learning of which they might be capable.
