Dust Bath Grey Chinchilla White Poodle

I don't know why this is funny but it sort of is ...

Yeah, chinchillas do look like Martian rabbits. And all tired and weary round the eyes. Did you know they need special volcanic chinchilla dust to bath in? Otherwise their fur goes horrible. Siberian dwarf hamsters need dust-baths too: but the idiot book I used as a guide never explained this. So I thought they were rolling about in the sawdust because they had fleas ...! Also, btw, once I swopped sawdust for catlitter their coats came into much better condition.
