Hi All,

I'm in the midst of considering which cage to get. I really love the medium size cage sold by Pet Shack but to find a place to put it at my current house is a headache.

Bonai,
Can you post up your sugar glider cage? Which cage are you using?


Seems to me, many use this cage but yet, some say the medium sized one is better. I spoke to Hun about it and she said it will probably do me good since they are new.

Are there any of these sold in 2nd hand?

Pict 2 Zoey look like a talibanese glider. Is that her tail over the forehead?

Thinking of naming my upcoming joeys - Squirmy and Wormie. Girlfriend laughed until pengsan and told me to put them Pinky and The Brain but not suitable for females.

Wowww... is that a metal cup? Dont keep her in there ler, metal is cold ma. Somemore she is underage right? Keep her somewhere warm ba!

Can get in Guardian or Watson also!

Yea, I am curious - where to get more natural ones? I think these wet tissue also cannot keep long one. About one week unused on the table it will dry up.

You know, there's so many different foods out there for baby thats suitable for gliders. One day we should all go grocery shopping together. The types of cheese, the brand of baby food, which flavour (only sweet ones), etc. I think it'll be cool! Ha ha..

I feel these days ppl are just plain irresponsible. Buying glider, dog, hamster are all the same. Most of them think its easy job. Most of them think it does not require commitment and time. They just buy because they like it, in another words on impulse.

When u buy an underage glider, it simply means u made a mistake. Whether u knew bout it and purposely still do it, or whether ur too ignorant to research bout it, u made a mistake. When u make a mistake, then be prepared to be flamed, even if ur asking for help. There will be ppl are nice enough to help out. Help educate u, help the joey survive, etc. However there's some who will flame u, some who will guide u step by step, some who will make u read and research. This is normal. Don't expect ppl to pamper u, pat u in the back and speak to u softly, pass u a tissue if u cry, etc when u made a mistake.

Please la. We're all adults. Take the flaming like a man. It is for your own good and maybe someday its your turn to educate others YOUR WAY. Lets be nice and all get along, we're only here because we have a common interest and hopefully, a common purpose - the good love and care for all pets, for real. Cheers.

I'm still patiently waiting for my sugar gliders to come to me end of the month. I can only watch and drool over all the pictures for now. Post up more please!

I have not purchase the cage yet but I will get the medium size one from Pet Shack. I will only get the gliders end of May. I hope the days come faster now.

After 2 years going in and out of these Sugar Glider topics, I have finally decided to buy a pair of joeys earlier last month. Today, I received the photos from the breeder and I just want to share my joy with all of you glider owners.

They are both females but I have not decided on their names. I will be getting a medium size cage from Pet Shack this Saturday! I should be getting them in 2 weeks time.

Curling up in a bin with newspaper?


We are not camera-shy


Come closer!

I have a question about gliders and cleanliness. For example, a glider jump off our body and run around in the room. Then it runs behind the wardrobe.

Considering that the back of wardrobe has not been for many years and there are dust gathered there. The glider dirtied itself - will it be harmful? Will dust be bad for them? Will they suffocate / choke?

Hi jitshiong,

Thanks for your advise. I believe you are right. There are just more than dust but bacterias in there which could be harmful. OK I will be more careful but it's risky considering places like under the bed, behind the cupboard, etc.

OK, I will try to clean my room at least this one time to ensure they are living in healthy if I let them out. I will supervise them closely if I ever let them lose. Some places are extremely hard to clean in my house.

Who is their atuk? Active is good... Passive is like unbonded and untrusting. Active is like... semangat!!

spirit of demon,
Wow, that's some very detailed work. Nice effort there! Do post up a pict when its complete ok?

But if the joeys come to a certain age already, no need milk also can, right? What age would that be, that they're weaned or stop needing milk?

By the way, I messaged Hun a couple of days back and she told me to tell everyone that she does not have Internet access, so she will not be online. If there is any emergencies, please call her directly. Please cascade this information to anyone who need Hun's help.

How come nowadays dont see KP around much either... Is she too busy with her glider? I want to ask her about Suggiestuff!

Omg!! I love this pict! Just like baby just woke up with big big eyes looking for mommy!! I am still waiting for my joeys. They should arrive on the 24th this month!! Ooo!!

Poor teddy has to go thru such fate. I thought he's living alone right? No female so why neuter?

Hahaha... CFP, anak sendiri nak sunat ask donation? Apa lar luuuuu...
You also considering of neutering Chika meh?

You are like 500x bigger than it, then scared it bite... funny leh. Worry more about commitment and time, not about pain dude.

Its good that you think carefully and not buy on impulse. You're doing great!! Hope you can find it suitable and become one of us gliders zombies.
