: I'm thinking of getting one but I don't think I could stand bitting...Also do they get used to not being nocturnal after a while of living with human behavior? What are the pros and cons?

: Thanks

First off...They will bite, and You can't stop them from biting. If you are thinking about getting a SG.
Then you need to start researching them. Their are a whole bunch of web sites, and pages that are full og
good info. Their are pro's, but their and DEFINATELY some cons. I would surf the web, find books on them
. I don't have any web sites with me, but I other people on this board have some great sites they'll give you
to go look through and get as much info as you can. Getting a Sugarglider in a commitment for 10 to 15 years
and if you give one up after acouple of years that is cruel. I'm not trying to jump on you or anything, just trying
to let you know what you might be getting yourself into. Please find out EVERTHING you can about them.
