RIP to Smitty ):
he was a good chinchilla.. We Just got back from the Vet and he wasnt getting any better.. i was told to put him in the freezer with the door open.. also to put a fan on with ice bags.. i tried my best!!! :'( to the stupid ass comments go fuck yourself.. i though making this video would atleast help others out there on saving their chinchillas.. this same case happened to a friend of mine and tried this technique and she survived so hope this helps.

  • you obviously didn't try hard enough to avoid the heat stroke... Avoiding a heat stroke staying hydrated and cool (the temper for chins should NEVER be around 75 degree). PLEASE never own another animal since you incapable to provide air conditioning and water.

  • ..Why would you film something like this? Kinda morbid and disrespectful, don't you think?

    Also, you seem to have a large number of pets, some which you take poor care of.. you let your chinchilla die of a heat stroke, handle your gecko poorly to the point that it hates your guts, etc. Maybe you should slow down with the pet collecting and focus on caring for the ones you have.

  • She tried everything, but taking it to a vet. THE INTELLIGENCE LEVEL, BRILLIANT!

  • I think this video was uploaded for the person to feel closure and get other viewpoints due to feeling guilt over the loss of their Chinchilla and I can safely say I do not agree with it at all and think it is just sad. You filmed your Chinchilla dying? You don't feel guilty enough, you have to rub it in your own face with a video? Do not own anymore Chinchillas because you do not know how to take care of them. This is just ridiculous.

  • if i ever get a chinchilla i'll name it after smitty ill call him or her smitty jr.

  • this makes me wanna cry, i never wanna see this happen to my incocent little guy, can you plz tell me what temperature your chinchilla was at to cause this, plz respond???????????????????????­???? ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Chins are very sensitive to heat, the owner made a mistake! Hope this all shocks you into being super careful with your Chins...

    I'm sorry for your loss :(

  • @Pokesonicfan123123 which is? maybe how NOT to treat your pet, or to prove to everyone that she's a shiity pet owner?

  • @Libra3lilly I SO AGREE SEROUSLY PEOPLE HE MAEBYE MADE THIS VIDEO FOR A GOOD REASON

  • Guys, she probably didn't know that it was dying of heat stoke until it was too late.

    And she probably made this video in memory of him.

    Yes, I do agree that she shouldn't have filmed him suffering; and she probably could've made a video of happy pictures of him and whatever.

    But she probably wanted to show us what can happen to chinchillas when they get too hot.

    @wendy6592523

    I'm sorry for your loss. It's not easy. I found my first chinchilla Whiskers dead in the morning, when I tried everyth

  • Chinchillas cannot be in an environment above 70 degrees. In face 65 is more appropriate for someone to say they didn't know about that is ridiculous given YOU SEE THEM WITH THE MASSIVE FUR COATS ON THEIR BACKS RIGHT?????

  • dont buy no more animals if u dont know how to take care of them. fuk u
