The may not perceive music the same why we do, but chinchillas in general love music. A good way to socialize a chin is to sing to it. They don;t care if you sound god awful. Or at least mine doesn't. When I sing or hum, he pauses and tilts his head. He also acts differently when different music is being played. When chins hates something it's very obvious, they "grumble" and grind their teeth at you. When I play something electronic, he hops on his flying saucer and run like no tomorrow.
