Chinchillas

Chinchilla Supplies

Chinchillas are active, curious pets with specific needs when it comes to housing, diet, bedding and care.

At Zoar’s Ark, you can shop a wide range of chinchilla supplies in one place, from everyday food and bedding to cages, enrichment, chew toys and health and care essentials.

Whether you are preparing for a new chinchilla or restocking supplies for an existing pet, our range makes it easier to find products suited to their everyday needs.

Chinchilla Food & Treats

A high-fibre diet is an important part of keeping chinchillas healthy.

Good quality hay should form a major part of their diet, alongside a suitable complete chinchilla food or pellet and constant access to fresh drinking water.

You can also find chinchilla treats for occasional feeding, helping add variety without replacing their balanced everyday diet.

Chinchilla Cages & Housing

Chinchillas need plenty of space to move, jump and explore.

A suitable chinchilla cage should be secure, well ventilated and provide enough room for platforms, hideaways, feeding areas and enrichment.

Tall cages with multiple levels can help make good use of vertical space while encouraging natural activity.

Bedding, Toys & Enrichment

Suitable bedding helps keep the enclosure comfortable, clean and dry, while enrichment gives your chinchilla opportunities to stay active and occupied.

Chew toys are particularly useful because chewing is a natural behaviour and helps support normal dental wear.

Tunnels, platforms and other activity accessories can also add interest and variety to the enclosure.

Chinchilla Health & Everyday Care

Chinchillas have dense coats and should normally use a suitable dust bath rather than being washed in water.

Regular cage cleaning, a balanced diet, appropriate chew materials and close observation all form part of good everyday care.
