Chinchillas NEED cold temps. They have very thick furry coats and can not sweat to loose heat so anything over 75 degrees Fahrenheit will make them upset and can die. Best to keep them in basements (cold rooms) or air conditioned rooms. If it is very hot out you can freeze a plastic bottle and they will sit on it to cool off.
