It all depends on the chinchilla because they all have very distinct personalities. Both of mine love to be scratched and templeton doesnt mind being held (wilbur tolerates it) They are also really smart and they can be taught tricks. And no, you cant take them for walks, they shouldnt go outside at all actually because they are so freakin fast that they can get away from you in a second. But they love playtime out of their cage. They are just a barrel of laughs though, they are always doing something silly.
