"You could be reading a book and one would be sitting on your shoulder. It was amazing," the "Klara and the Sun" star says The post Jenna Ortega Is Still ‘Jealous’ Her ‘Wednesday’ Foster Chinchillas Got Adopted by Someone Else: ‘Good for Them’ appeared first on TheWrap .
Actress Jenna Ortega expressed her jealousy on Monday’s episode of "Late Night with Seth Meyers" over the fact that the chinchillas she once fostered during filming of "Wednesday" in Ireland were adopted by someone else. During her interview, Ortega revealed that she gave her dog Twigs various names because none seemed to suit her well.
It was while filming "Wednesday" in Ireland that Ortega also fostered three chinchillas, naming them Alma, Donal, and Basil. However, when asked if she revisited the chinchillas during the Season 3 shoot, Ortega said she couldn't as they had been adopted. Ortega admitted to feeling slightly "angry" about this development but emphasized that the purpose of fostering was to find the animals a loving home.
She noted that her friends typically start fostering their dogs and then adopt them, realizing how difficult it can be to let go. Ortega explained that she couldn't continue fostering the chinchillas as she had to leave the country, and they were better off staying in Ireland. If it had been possible, Ortega would have brought the chinchillas back to America with her.
The "Wednesday" star joked about the idea of bringing chinchillas home, saying they were indeed quite unique, even sitting on her shoulder while she read a book.
