Once your pet has completely bonded with you and is comfortable in its surrounding, you can attempt to teach it to glide to you. Place your pet in a location that is higher than your shoulder where it would have difficulty getting down by any other route than by jumping to you and climbing down. The top of a bookshelf might work. Place your glider on the shelf and show it a small treat. Place the treat in the palm of your hand and hold it up so that your glider has to step off of the shelf onto your hand to collect its reward. Repeat the procedure but this time move your hand slightly further away from the edge of the self so that your glider has to make a very small leap to get to you. Increase the distance as your glider becomes more adept at the game.
Good Luck,
