Hi Everyone,
I wanted to introduce myself properly to y'all. My name is Kristine and I am the proud mother and wife to John (hubby), Alex and Andrew (kids), Moon, Fluffy, Kramer (cats), Thumper (rabbit that thinks he's a dog), Caramel (guinea pig), Squeeky (squirrel). We just lost our beloved Furby (chinchilla) and I am just now able to pick myself up. My other family members help so much! I have decided to start my hunt for another chinchilla. It will probably take me a long time 'cause Furby will be a hard act to follow. I'm in no hurry, though. I have been overwhelmed by the love and support here! I have always felt sort of embarrassed about the way I treat my animals (like family) and now I feel totally accepted; everyone here loves their animals just as much!!!
We live in Houston, Texas and are blessed every day with friends and family. Thanks for being so welcoming and I hope to be posting more in the future.

Welcome Kristine! I am so sorry about Furby. It is always hard to lose a pet, particularly for people whose pets become like part of the family. I think that is true for all of the members of this forum.
I'm glad you joined the forum! Keep in touch!

Welcome to the boards! :::grins:: ::silly::

Hi and a big welcome from the "ROCK" Newfoundland, it's better know as the Rock. LOL
I'm so sorry for your loss, and yes if he was a cuddlier he may very well be a hard act to follow.
But ya know they are all as unique in their own way, so I'm sure you'll be happy with a new one no matter what the personality.
Besides you wouldn't want to replace him, could never, just love another the same but different.
I am very close to all 26 of my pet chins, and have to try not to get too attached to kits or I have to keep them. ;)
So have you though about a colour you'd like to have?

I was thinking of another Mosaic like Furby. If I can't find one I like, then my next choice would be an Ebony. Just today my daughter, Alex, started looking at chinny videos again, so I think she might be ready to give another one her love :) I have learned so much just by reading the boards so I think we are prepared to give our next little one everything he/she needs. Does anyone here know of any good breeders in the Houston, Texas area? I don't want to get our next one from a pet store. I want to know background etc.
Thanks again!
