My two gliders are let out of there cage very night fo a couple hours in my room. its glider proofed to my best smile
They like to jump and play and go under my bed. I went to the pet store and decided to try a new idea. It can be expensive but if you louv your babbies then youll get it for them. I got one of those really big cat posts, that have many levels and rooms and scratching posts for cats. My gliders cant get enough playing on it because of all the levels to jump off of and rooms to explore. There great smile

Great idea about making your own. There are so many original ideas for toys ... may have to build on another room just for gliders and toys, lol.
Yes, I know some of you may have already done that.
Spoiled gliders or what raspberry

with a small regular human fingernail trimmer, wake them up mid day when you dont genereally wake them up, there not used to it and will be tired its eawsyier then, hold them next to your chestr in a pouch till they fall asleep agin,usually very quickly, then be gentle and you can do it withoput them even waking up.:)

I have one of those cat stands. I bought it at walmart for 28 dollars. Its very skinny but over 7 ft high. It has an adjustable top so it goes from the floor to the ceiling. It has 4 leveles. They love clibing it and gliding off. Its amazing how far they can glide from the very top.
