Hi. I have a question to ask all sifu here.

My sis sugar glider recently became very afraid of her cage. She wouldnt go down to the bottom of the cage. But once out of the cage, she will be alright. The night before she was still alright. But we are not sure what happen. Everytime we put her back in the cage, she will go up to the cage and when she stare down, she will move her tail around and it looks like a cat with its tail raise. Like she is afraid of something. We already wash the cage and took her to the vet but the vet say she is fine and healthy.

So anyone experienced this before with their glider? Need some help here. Thank you very much in advance.

can the sifus tell me the best diet for sg?

i notice that my sugarglider have watery nose and his hand and leg are kinda cold..what should i do?bring it to vet?Or what fruits should i give him to eat?
any recommended vet in Klang?

Sounds like normal, gliders like being in high places.

Sometimes......better safe than sorry, so probably should go see a vet.

Hey guys! I'm super glad to find this thread! The information is so complete I'm super amazed! I learnt a lot from here too. Thank you to those who provide those information ya. Good good good job! Keep it up! ☺️

Anyways I own a male sg. His name is Timmy. I love him very very muchie. Such a cute glider. He is quite fat but that's what I love about him. He just barked because there are ants on his hpw (!!!!). Super cute!

Better to call any vet you know and ask them if they will treat sugar gliders. Not all vets will accept or knows how to treat gliders, so better you check first. If they don't, then ask if they know any vets willing to treat exotics.

How is your glider now?

Congratz on your baby. Enjoy glider parenting.

well..it's weird..after another day..he back to normal..look like he having his pms? haha

hi guys, question here.

Do i need to buy a new glider to bond with my current one? he is almost 4 years old.

he doesn't seem lonely or what, he's healthy (as per our observation, not sure if its true :/) so can anyone here tell me should i buy another new glider to accompany him?

Many would say yes, everytime I bring my glider to doctor....sure kena scold because of this. But ultimately it's your call.

Thx for ur reply

anyway i'm really scared he will fight with the new glider. will he?

There's some tips on introducing gliders to each other in the 1st page. Maybe you can read up some more online.

There's no guarantee cause each glider behaves differently, just like us humans. So you just gotta be patience.

hai peeps. I wanna get some advice :'(

I'm in UK but my mom in malaysia bought a sugarglider because it was being abused by the family of the previous owner.

(i didn't approve but she did it anyway). And now the glider is just in the cage because it wouldn't come out. I think its scared. It's been less than a week. I thought sugar gliders need to be out and in pockets or some stuff? I read that it's a sociable creature and loves company. so i feel like its really depressing to just sit in the cage.

Is there away to make her open up to my mom so that it would at least spend time out of the cage?

Patience young padawan.

Firstly, your glider need to get used to the new environment (your house). Normally it'll take a week or so for joey, but yours is a matured glider (i assume?), so may be longer. Also I think it did came out, just that you never notice lol. Mine won't come out if there's light on, she likes the darkness hehe.

Once she got used to the environment, feeling less scared & stressed, she'll come out when she's comfortable. Mine absolutely love the dried yogurt drops, to the point that just by hearing the sound of me opening the yogurt drop container, she'll pop her head out to see if there's really any yogurt drop waiting for her or not. You can buy those yogurt drops from most pet shops.

Then you can start keeping her in a bonding pouch with you during the day time. They're nocturnal so daytime it'll be sleeping, so if you're bringing it around in a bonding pouch, try to avoid noisy places. This bonding period varies from 1 glider to another, some people need more than a year to be bonded with their glider. So be patience, give it time to grow into you.

BTW they're not like hamsters that will be roaming around the cage most of the time. They're usually asleep throughout the day & only comes out active for several hours at night. Unless you've really trained yours to be awake during the day & be less afraid of the light.

my mom is scared that she would go missing at night if she opens up the cage. is that possible?

Super duper possible!!
Secure all the cage doors properly.
