Is A Sugar Glider The Pet For Me?

     This blog is to inform anyone who has chosen to be the parents of a Sugar Glider. Sugar Gliders are, in my opinion, the most rewarding pet you can own, however, they are VERY high maintenance. They need all of your attention and trust. If you're going on vacation you need to be able to bring your suggie with you, if you're going out for a night, you need to be sure you refreshed their water and gave them fresh food. If you have a hard time committing to an animal than this pet is NOT for you, suggies also don't do well with small children and unless both your suggie and other animal grew up together, I don't recommend having other specie "play dates". 
       I recommend that you get your suggie as a baby. If you adopt an older or grown suggie it will take longer for it to trust and bond with you. When you adopt or buy your suggie make sure that they were captive bred and not taken from the wild. ALWAYS do your research first. My blog is jammed full of information but you can never read enough! 
        

What's My Commitment?

       If you're afraid of commitment, than you probably shouldn't get a Sugar Glider, they live 12-15 years in captivity. If you look into your future 10 years from now and your Suggie isn't a part of it, than these playful pets probably aren't for you. 

        So, with all of that said, if you still think a Sugar Glider is the perfect addition to your family, continue reading and checking in as I regularly update my Blog. Also, if you ever have any questions I haven't already answered, my email is commetdancer@gmail.com.
