I live in Las Vegas and since 2 month I have this animal living in my rocks above my whirlpool. I'm wondering if this is a chinchilla.
I asked some people, but everybody had a different opinion.
thanks in advance

It is certainly not a chinchilla. It looks like a mouse to me.

It isn't a chinchilla because it has a rat/mouse tail. It sure looks like one at first glance though! How big is it. Could it be a degu?

i think it may be a blue degu? i have degus and they look similar but are brown/ginger, i know there are blue ones but have never seen one so not entirely sure what they look like. would you have a picture that shows the end of the tail?

I don't know, we have wild mice here that look a lot like that. How big is it?

My brother lives in Fallon NV and he said it was a kangaroo rat. He found one in someones brakes on their car while working on it. I thought it was a chinchilla also.
