I recently bought a nine mnth old sugar glider from a
local pet shop. What had happened is that someone bought him
for a young girl and obviously she was unable to give him
the attention he needed so she sold it to the pet shop.
The pet shop actually had him for a mnth before I came along
and gave him a chance. They said that they actually sold
several babies instead of him because people didnt want to
take a chance with the bonding. After the warnigs of biting
and not being handled too much I still bought him. I have
now had him for a week and he no longer bites me and has
began bonding with me with a lot less effert that I was
told that I had to do.
