Learn what the Chinchilla pet does in Grow a Garden, how to get it, its ability, and why it’s a top divine pet this event.

The Chubby Chipmunk Event in Grow a Garden added a bunch of new seeds, cosmetics, and six new pets. One of the rarest pets that you can obtain in this event is the chinchilla. This divine pet isn’t just cute; it has a powerful ability that can help your garden run more efficiently. Every 40 minutes, the Chinchilla rolls over another pet in dust, forcing that pet to perform its ability three times in a row. This makes it a valuable support pet, especially for players focusing on maximizing rewards and efficiency.
