My teardrops can't stop rolling down my cheek, when ever I think of them...Hopefully someone found them and take good care of them for me. There's a lot going on in my mind right now, all the horrible thing that could happened to them..I pray to 'GOD' hopefully it is not true or could not happened...!!
These bound to happen to those unfortunate one, in one way or another and I have to accept it......because that's human nature in/of life(for the unfortunate ones ) that is....... STILL....WHY....!!

yea, cant imagine what till happen to them...
cheer up~ allenna

cant blame your mom, i used to take the bus...it's hard to handle several small items all in one go..if you're the owner then OF COURSE you'd be checking all the time coz dah jadi habit already but if not..we cant judge..she was trying to help.

have you tried contacting the bus company?maybe if your mom remembered the bus number and route/time..you might be able to check if they found the pouch (which may mean you get to collect them at the lost and found) or if not then maybe some kind soul found them already?

whichever way, i hope you and them will be alright.

Oh god...sad to hear that...i really hope that ur gliders will be alright...God Bless*
but wad done is done, u eventually have to accept it...

eric u study in tarc?

sorry for your lost..i'm sure your mom herself cares a lot about them even take them along in bonding pouch..it's due to carelessness and hope someone good hearted to give the suggies a proper home..cheer up..just wish for the best

Thanks you guys..I feel a little bit comfort and a bit relief after reading your comments, and glidermama......, I already called the bus company to check weather my pouch is in the bus but they said they didn't find it. Like you said before, maybe someone found them and took them home......
My mom feels really..really bad for abandoning them (without realizing) and then, have the time to go and buy another (that same morning)....to replaced the lost. And now she's the one who carries the pouch to bond with them cause, they keep crabbing all the time. I will be coming back this weekend and hope to bond with them. It will be hard at first because I have to start all over again and not to mention........the time.

i came across this pic in GliderCENTRAL..and wad the hell is this?!!

is it sick, over grooming or something? sad to c this..

hi everyone~

i just adopt a pair of suggies, the female's ears looks shrunken a bit..the owner said,its normal cz the male are quiet aggressive while ehem2

izit so?

So sorry to hear about what happened. Well, things happen. For now we all can just hope they have found someone good to take care of them.

You can try your luck by putting a few notices around bus stops and also in pet forums to see if any pet lover found them.

It doesn't look like over grooming. Could be it was born with a hairless defect coz from the look of it, it is not sore from overgrooming.

Do ask the previous owner, did he/she bath them and use a hair dryer?

Got 3 possibilities, the ears were either eaten away by mites or they were eaten by the mom when it was a joey or it was burned by heat from a hair dryer.

Aggressive gliders do not attack ears....

I also hope you are not thinking of breeding them.

hi guys......

Has the diarrhea stopped? 6 months, if it is out of pouch then it is close to adult already.... it's like a teen, juvi glider.

But it is not normal. This is why I don't like to recommend Dr Yeoh, he don't really know much about glider. He can only treat mild things but when it comes to stuff like hair loss and UTI, I find he not so experience in it.

What have you been feeding? How have you been keeping? Use any bedding? Where did you bought your joey? What it sleeps in? Does you joey scratch and lick her fur alot?

From my experience with seeing many joeys that have this kinda hair loss problem, it can be a lack of nutrition, bad hygiene, mites or overgrooming.... but it is rare to overgroom till so much hair loss.

any1 hv any other vets to recommend other than dr Yeoh? cz i oso find him inexperience in gliders in the way he reply, but for dogs he is really good at it...
Is dr Jenny really retire d ar?

u can ask kelvin-faye or petshack for boarding~
i dun mind boarding if u got extra cage~
i'm tearing up my junk store-room n goin to make a giant cage jus behind my room since my mom no longer nags me for keeping my lil girl Aki given by wafizul[if i recalled his name properly~] XD

~


awww,i wan ur doggie~ XD

jus hope nobody will sit on them,like i use to hop into bus n jus sit without looking on my seat~

Yes, There are no other vets. Dr Jenny really resign from being a vet anymore and will no longer treat sugar gliders.

"REALLY" ......what are we supposed to do 'IF' any of our gliders are seriously sick...I remembered like my dear Gizmo was having trouble moving both of it's hind legs, I thought that he had this HLP but Dr. Jenny examined him and said that it wasn't....he had a muscle tear and gave a tablet which was cut into 4 and to be given once at night only. Every night I had to crushed the tablet to make it into powder, mix it with water and fed him with syringe.....and today, Gizmo is able to move, jumped and climbed after the treatment. I never tried Dr. Yeoh before and I don't know where his/her clinic is (location) , because...Dr. Jenny's name was highly recommended by exotic pet owner's especially sugar gliders...

So, in the meantime if our gliders are sick then we have no vets to bring to is it? Think we better start searching and asking vets clinic around our area n post it here to share if we able to find vets who are able to treat gliders issue.

Thanks for your replied even i know u still sad about your bell n bella....sory for your lost....

I got dis cute little creature from my fren dat feel uncomfortable with its diet dat contains meal worms n other such thing. she buy it at melaka; 1st may dis year..she told me,the pet shop's owner said dat dis sg r 3 months..im quite sure dis pet shop r not the professional breeder...

2 days b4 i bring minie to Dr Yeoh,i changed her diet from HPW to suggieslurp.i think she juz not suitable with HPW.juz after 1 days she have the slurp,her poo become better.but i still bring her to meet Dr Yeoh bcoz her underweight problem (20.2gm)
Dr said she will b ok since she still active n he give me some deworms med n vit...

I put her in 3 feet cage with sleeping porch n some other accessories..i give her SG premium diet n fresh fruit (day time) n at night i give 4-5 mealworms n suggieslurp..i also blend her veggie with some of your slurp+honey..is it ok?

I will absolutely say YES to your last question..now,she doesnt like to play anymore even at night..after finished her meals,she will go into her sleeping porch...not to sleep but to scratch all over her body!! her abdomen around her pocket r hairless!!! her tail's fur also become thinner...

Plez...help me...i dont know what to do..i've clean her cage n the tray below every 2 day with clean water..i wash her porch every 2 weeks..is it anything else dat i have left?......

Ok, glad the diarrhea stopped. But the weight is a bit disturbing. 20g is underweight, most of the well bred joeys are 20g at 14 days Out of pouch. So it is worrying. But I have seen joeys that are 18g but after follow my diet, put on weight and now are big size gliders.

Now the possibility is mites. coz if very itchy, it could be mites. So have to take ivermectin injection for it. It can also be allergies but it is hard to say, it can be anything.
