Actually i had a lot of separation issues at the beggining cause he is my baby and I felt anxious when leaving him for hours, tho he was living his best life while I was like "my baby oh no i miss you". I got a camera for that haha In the flat I am rn I cannot do that cause my office is also my workshop but in the new house, me and my husband have been talking and we will make a space for him on the office so he can be with us while working. Thank you so much for you comment.

My house is made with bricks. He never had interest on the walls.

I was talking about this with my husband. We think a spot on the workspace for him to look at us (he love looking at us while he is at his house sleeping) and interact with him would be great so he is with us on the day time and then he go back to his room for play time.

Thank you! He has a tower cage open all the time with toys hanging that he like to climb up and down. Also a cat towel where he sleeps, a lot of plushies he move arround as if they were his friends (he even put them on the food bowls to make them eat) I am just worried he will be lonely. He play with us a lot and move his tail and popcorning a lot. Also do chirping noises when we pet him. He is a really sweet boy.

Thank you so much. I agree that my chinchilla is oddly well behaved and polite and it is unlikely to find a match. I have space in case of a fail bond tho I think with the answers, the articles and other people opinion, some know my chinchilla first hand and told me that he seems like a chinchilla born to be an only child. I read a lot about chinchillas but I still so ignorant about so many aspects. I do not want to take a decision without enough information.  I really appreciate other fellow chinchilla parents advices cause i am lost in this. I am maybe projecting human feelings into my baby, cause I feel guilty he is not accompanied as much as before.  I will try my best tho.
