: LOL...He loves you and is grooming you! You are his clan..he is happy by making the chirping noises. I would watch out about using any harsh soaps just to be safe.
: You have what most people want...a bonded glider! :o))

: : Could someone please give me some advice. My sugar glider loves to come out, but the only problem is he won't stop licking my hands. No matter if I wash them or don't, he always wants to lick them. When he does this he make little chirping sounds like when he is eating. Sould I be worried about him licking me? Can the salts or soap on my hands hurt him? I love to have him outto play but fear the licking may have affects on his health. He seems to really enjoy it. What do the chirping sounds mean?

: : Please help,
