Chinchillas can live for quite a long time as pets! The typical lifespan for a chinchilla in captivity is somewhere between 10 and 15 years, with some living even longer. The record for the oldest chinchilla is over 29 years old! However, the average lifespan is closer to 10 years.

A chinchilla's natural habitat is in the Andes mountains in Peru. They do not reside high in the mountains or low in the mountains, but usually in the middle where the temperature is most comfortable. Chinchillas also live in cages around the world as pets.
A chinchillas natural habitat is high up in the mountains. They live in cool areas, and should not ever be kept out in sweltering heat. It could kill them. They sell tile at pet stores for chinchillas to use because they conduct heat good. So the the rock they live on in the mountains.
I have 2 chinchillas and they are lovely. I depends whether you want a pet which you hold or just look at. Chinchillas do not like to be held due to large back legs but are lovely have watch in their sand bath or running around a closed room. They can have lots of medical problems such as overgrowing teeth which can become expensive. Chinchillas also live between 16-20 years so are a very long term pet. Overall they are lovely pets to watch and to let jump over you, but it requires a lot of commitment. Hope I helped :)
Pets at Home does sell chinchillas along with hamsters, gerbils, and guinea pigs.
There are any number of exotic pets, such as pigs, dolphins, and chinchillas.
