AKA, Pocket Pet with Attitude

Many people are looking for different means of pets. Dogs and cats are not always the best choice of pets for everyone. Here is a markedly different type of pets. A pocket pet! A Glider.The Sugar Sugar Glider is a domestic animal known for his gentle and cheerful, curious, but is illegal in some jurisdictions, such as California.Do gliders make sounds? Sugar Gliders are social creatures and make many sounds, including barking, crabs, tap, and chattering.Are gliders rodents? No. Sugar gliders are marsupials (mammals that carry their young in a pouch), but they are of the same family as the koala and kangaroo.I have collected some data and some research. Perhaps this is the solution for many who want a different kind of pet.Sugar Gliders make excellent pets. They adapt easily to captivity and can develop strong relationships with their human caretakers. Therefore it would be good for people who can not have large animals. They are small in size, are very intelligent and love to play. They are much smarter than a hamster or a rat and have a much longer life, most of them live 10 years or more if cared for properly. Although nocturnal, this can benefit.Sugar gliders love human attention. And they are really so cute. They have also developed strong ties with their owners.An adult sugar glider is approximately 11 inches from nose to tail tip, but most of this (6 or 7 inches) is the tail. They have similarities with our flying squirrel. The skin is very soft. Here's more information I researched.It is 16 to 20 cm (6.3 7.5 inches) long, with a slightly longer tail, and weighs between 90 and 150 grams (3 to 5.3 ounces) . The fur is generally pearl gray, black and cream spots at the base of the ears pink. The tail tapers only moderately and the last quarter of which is black, often with a white tip. The muzzle is short and rounded. Northern forms tend to be brown and gray, and not, as expected from Bergmann's rule, smaller.The most obvious features of its anatomy, however, the membranes of the skin called Patagium double "s that extend from the fifth toe forelimb back to the first item on the back foot. These are inconspicuous when the Sugar Glider is at rest just seems a little "soft, as if he had lost weight recently, but immediately apparent when one takes the flight. The membranes are used to glide between trees: when fully extended they form an aerodynamic surface the size of a large handkerchief.Sugar Gliders can occupy any area where there are tree hollows for shelter and sufficient food. Their diet varies considerably with geography and the changing seasons, but the main items are the sap of acacias and some eucalupts, nectar, pollen, and arthropods. They are difficult to see in nature, which is small, care, and night, but a sign of their presence is the removal of bark and tooth marks in the soft, green shoots of acacia trees.Sugar gliders love human attention and love to play. This is what makes them special. Ensure liaison with children when brought home. Because sleep during the day, you can link them, letting the dream in my pocket, but do not sit on the wing! Sugar gliders are very strong bonds with their owners. One article says that love to play hide and go seek.They love when you come home at night, I'm so happy to see you! If buying from a reputable breeder. You can expect to pay between $ 200 to $ 400 for them. I recommend starting with a baby, because they are much stronger relationships with you. And as always, study and collect information right to obtain a pet healthy and safe.
