Where to buy Chinchilla Accessories

With pet shops and so many high street retailers selling items that are unsuitable for chinchillas, it can be easy to get disheartened and feel there's no where you can buy safe accessories for your chinchilla. Luckily this is not the case, there are plenty of chinchilla safe supplies you can spoil your chinchilla with, you just need to know where to look. From everyday necessities to fun treats and toys, listed below is a full shopping list of where you can buy everything you need for your pet chinchilla. Follow the hyperlinks below to each of the retailers to find out more information and buy.
Please be aware that these businesses may also sell items that are unsafe for chinchillas, so before purchasing check any items are made from safe wood, metal or non pill fleece only and do not contain any hazards such as plastic, sisal or other fabrics. Please also ensure any treats are from the safe list only.
Money Saving Tips!  When purchasing online, always do a quick search for any valid voucher codes. Sign up to cashback sites, such as Top Cashback both in the UK and the US - it’s quick to sign up and you can earn cashback when you make purchases from a range of stores including Pets at Home, Pet Planet, Petco and Etsy. This is particularly worthwhile when purchasing more expensive items such as cages or air conditioning units. 

​Pet Smart price matches competitors’ in-store and online prices, so if you’ve seen something online at Chewy cheaper (which is actually owned by Pet Smart) then they will price match in store for you. Petco also price matches, but on in-store items only.
