Puri loves chin-chins~

The biggest birthday present this year? A brand new chinchilla. ♥

I'll have to wait four weeks though. The baby chins aren't ready to be weaned yet. :3 The breeder says she only has females, but because Ryu is so old, she feels that he wouldn't care about trying to breed anymore. I hope she's right. She's not sure what colors they'll grow into yet. There's also a new chin that just got born and she doesn't know its sex yet. So here's some names I've been thinking of naming my future darling~ ♥

Lyra - After the female protag of my favorite Pokemon gen, and also because I like the name. I still haven't finished reading His Dark Materials, let alone The Golden Compass. *hangs head in shame*

Poe - It's perfect for a gray or black chin! Plus I love the mental image of a chinchilla named Poe bouncing off the walls while Ryuichi, named after a hyperactive rockstar, just sits there. XD

Homura - For a black (maybe gray) chin! Plus I'd be able to call her "Homu-chin."

Geno - Ideal for a beige or chocolate chin. :3 I've been wanting to name a pet after Geno for a long time. Especially for one as wise and active as a chinchilla~

Vivi(an) - For a gray, black, beige or brown chin. Named after Vivian from Paper Mario 2 or Vivi from Final Fantasy IX. Nothing quite like having a little chinchilla mage! :3

I hope Ryu and the new chinchilla like each other. I wanted to get Ryu a friend for so long. ;;
