hello, my husband and I rescued a 3 month old little boy,sugarglider from some people who didnt seem to care about him. I do not believe he was handled too much and he seems to be "schreeching and yelling " at us. Today I put him in my pocket and he bit me and screeched at me. I have fallen in love with this little animal and he is now in a happy family but we need tips and help on how we can slowly get him to trust us. HELP PLEASE . I know he has endured quite a lot including a gaping wound on his neck . We found a good vet who has helped explain what to do about it and is treating it . But now we need advise on how to help him fall in love with us. and should I force him to be in my pocket if he is protesting??? Also he only ate parrot food when we resuced him nothing else . I am having problems interducing him to a "REAL" diet . any advice on how I can get him to taste new foods???? Thanks for whatever help you can give me .... Nancy........
