Alright. I have seen so many posts about money issues and such. It's drastically ticking me off.
1) If you can not afford your glider a friend, how are you affording the food, vet bills, cage, and other necessary things a glider needs? A FRIEND is something NECESSARY to a glider's well-being. As said before, sugar gliders are colony animals and do much better while in larger numbers.
2) If these people were responsible enough to READ the information about gliders and see that they need two, wouldn't a person save up to get two? Wouldn't a person see all of the horror stories about gliders doing terrible things to themselves? These are the same people when something actually happens to their glider, they can not afford to get their glider emergency treatment or even know the number to their vet!! Come on, guys! Show some responsibility. If you can not do this, DO NOT own ANY pet for that matter. You do not deserve the love of an animal if you can not give it the best life it deserves! If that means saving up, waiting until you are older, or just not getting one at all, then by all means do these things and do not get a glider until then or at all.
