Need to check for few day is it like that, are you guys sugar glider got happen like this before ?

hi guys,

If your hands have allergy and itchiness, you can try this. Apply ice to the hand, the reason is when the skin surface is numb, than you will feel the itchiness lesser. I've tried it.
Well see if this works for you as well..

ubi keledek i think?

hmmm yeah i think its ubi keledek...

Yes, must kesian kan these animals, but don't kesian until buy. I don't recommend buying any live animals from PW, actually, because they do not care for them properly which will result in a lot of health problems. Even some of their dogs look so unhealthy. Whenever you feel compassion and buy them, you're actually supporting them to get more stock and more will suffer the same way.

There're only so much you can save.

Hi slurpee_slushee..
Hello,
This is a cream that you can use. Namanya Betnovate Cream. I regretted a bit, because didn't buy, haha..
You can get it here in local pharmacy, eg Caring Pharmacy.
This is the detail of this cream. It's similar to hydrocortisone in the sense that both are corticosteroid.
This medicine contains two active ingredients, betamethasone valerate and chlorocresol (a preservative).

Betnovate cream is one of a group of medicines called topical steroids.

"Topical" means they are put on the skin. Topical steroids reduce the redness and itchiness of certain skin problems.

Here are the details. How it can reduce rashes and so on..
Betamethasone is a type of medicine called a corticosteroid. Corticosteroids are medicines used for reducing inflammation. Inflammation of the skin happens due to the irritation of the skin, and is caused by the release of various substances that are important in the immune system. These substances cause blood vessels to widen, resulting in the irritated area becoming red, swollen, itchy and painful.

When betamethasone is applied to the skin it works by acting inside the skin cells to decrease the release of these inflammatory substances. This reduces swelling, redness and itch. Betamethasone is a potent corticosteroid that is applied to the skin to treat a wide variety of inflammatory skin diseases, such as eczema.

Nice day, slurpee_slushee...

Yes corticosteroids are anti inflammatory drugs and also use for allergic reactions such as type I hypersensitivity to reduce inflammation. It helps prevent shock too but all these are administered intravenously not topical lol. But since ur hands are itchy topical will do.

ahaa slurpee_slushee, u are finally here . welcome .. see . got more sifu here right ?

dude ... long time ago . i did bring my suggies and put it inside my jacket. riding 200kmh also ok .. but ar . start the speed slowly .. let them get used to it ..

annyone here having problem with little ants (not the biting type one,this one very small and seems harmless)? i'm in night shift so have to leave the fruits inside the cage early since i had to go out around 6pm.

Hahaha... cute glider. Look at that belly.

Those are not joeys.... the joeys all sold, and they cost more. 50% are adults... poor things have been there for a year.... so now year end sale, the slash the price to make it more attractive to buyers.... pity the gliders there. They are so stressed out from all the bright lights, constant finger tapping from naughty or curious people....

PW do not care much for their health. A diet of catfood and apples....

Just give her more. She will gain weight soon. You can give some yogurt too. Change to crickets and see how.

Yah.... yours small... could be diet.... you never get my mix also LOL.... what have you been feeding lah?

Suspect the fruits..... soft is ok, as long not poo watery. If watery means diarrhea already.

I also dunno what it is called but I saw on TV yesterday it is called ubi keledek....

Then keladi is what? Tapioca?
Then what is yam in Malay? Hahahah.... I forgot my malay studies already....

Ants.... what you can do is apply some cooking oil on the legs of your cage..... ants can't climb the oil.... or apply vinegar.

Hey, I went to 1 Utama today. I visited the Jusco Home centre and saw that they're selling sugar gliders. They're selling females for RM 350. All of them are about 3 inches to 3 and the half inches without tail. They're selling another sugar glider for RM 120.

The condition is pitiful... They're put in a 'glass cubicle' with no climbing toys or surface. Just a couple of logs around the bottom. The light was glaring and only cat food was fed... All the poor suggies were trying to squeeze under the log which was the only shade available from the harsh lighting... Couldn't even get sleep... The poor poor things... Sobs...

Pitiful.... RM350 and RM120 is cheap.... but then imagine what kinda health problems will they get? A staple diet of catfood can cause kidney failure later on.

Glass tanks.... pity pity.... all is for show, the welfare of the animals are never taken seriously.

T.T You see them squirming and kicking each other to get into the hollow of the log, it'll make your heart cry. Some more outside got people say "so cute... look like very easy to take care only". Really so ignorant...

The person in there gave me wrong information when i buy pets from him before. Make it sound so easy to take care. And the animals are kept in filthy cages... If open the 'glass cubicle', sure will stink sky high.
