: : hi..
: : I've been debating wether or not I should get a sugar glider and I need some help. Currently I have two cats, a cockatiel and some fish. I don't like the fish cause they just sit there, I love my cats cause they are just so cuddly and I don't like my cockatiel cause he just pecks at stuff and doesn't like to cuddle or play.
: : I was just wondering a few things about sugar gliders:
: : ARe they going to be like my cockatiel and just sit there and not be very interesting or cuddly?

: : And are they going to be a real pain like my cockatiel when he goes to the wash room everywhere and really make you not want to take him out of the cage?
: : Thanx.

: I have 3 sugar gliders and their personalities are all different. Bandit ( the one I have had the longest ) is my best friend he absolutly loves to cuddle and play all over me. But then there's Smokey who even though I try and try doesnt want anything to do with me. I would say that if you do get one try to find a good breeder who will give you a fairly young one(but not to young) and one that has been handled. Also Sugar Gliders go to the bath room where ever they feel like it, I have been told to let them run around for half an hour before you take them out and USUALLY they will go then.

: Hope This Helped

Hi.. I too have been tring to decide to get a sugar glider.. I know that they're illegal in some states though, would anyone know what states those are? Well I hope all goes well with everyone else.. Thank you!
