My chinchillas love to dig.  Some clean out the same spot every time, others just redecorate as the mood strikes.

she loves to do it as im trying to sleep and she will stop if i get up and to look at her (her cage is at the foot of my bed) she will look at me and then just sit there as soon as i lay my head down she gos crazy! lol i think she does it to mess with me lol

idk, have you tried turning it? mine will turn her chew log (its made of hay and dried honey somehow) and push it back to the same spot every time if i move it. maby thats what she's trying to do?

Can you screw it on so she can't move it around? If it's a bother that is 
I keep mine in the basement so noise is not a problem.

Dexter will attempt to rearrange his whole cage (although moving the marble is a but tough for him) but I will wake up and his house will be across the cage, his log turned over and toys moved to different levels. I think he was an interior designer in his before life!

My chin, Pufy, does that as well. He always tries to change everything in the cage. And yes, he does it only when i sleep

ive cleaned it and ill mess with her (not in a mean way its just funny ) if i put bedding in her house she will dig it out and well in doing so she will leave some and will get it all out but if i leave some in there she doesnt dig i think she is just looking for stuff to do i guess i cant let her out all the time i also have cats and they try to attack/play but they dont know what she is so i kep her in her cage mostly but when i can let her out its for a few hours i leave her cage open so she can run in and out if she wants and she lets me know when shes done

she is probably a little bored, they're nocturnal, so your day is like their night, and you're night is their day, so maby thats why she does it only at night
