Dusty was 7 years old. She died last week from a common chinchilla disease. She was a Standard Chinchilla. My son and my husband were at home together due to a school snow day about 7 years ago.
To my surprise, Dusty joined our family that day. She loved to run around in our basement and "bounce" off the walls. We loved her very, very much and will miss her every day!

She's so beautiful. I am sure she's up there in the spirit world perhaps playing with my cat who died a few months ago so I understand your loss. May she rest in peace.
I am so sorry for your loss but I am so glad you were all able to love each other for seven years. What a Blessing.
What a beautiful girl!

All the animals who have been ill and old are restored to
health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made

and looks into the distance. His/her bright eyes are intent;

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend
meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted
again. The happy kisses rain upon your face, your hands again
caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting
eyes of your pet, so long gone form your life but never absent
from your heart.
Then together you and your special pet cross the Rainbow Bridge.
She was adorable! I don't know much about chinchillas, but she looks like she'd be a lot of fun. Sorry for your loss!
