The chipmunk is a squirrel species which has been kept as a pet by enthusiasts for many years. Although one can find more and more chipmunks in pet shops, it is still very difficult to find information about this species, which is why we dedicate this book to these lovely pets. This book has been written to provide you with the basic information you need to keep chipmunks as pets in a responsible manner. Besides general topics, such as origin, purchase, feeding, housing, care and reproduction, we also deal with a number of illnesses. Furthermore, we pay attention to a number of associations which focus on these special pets and where you can get more information.
