Bug

[nutmeg3]

This is Bug, one of my sugar gliders, not long after I got her. She found a spot in the crook of my knee and curled up. I was still new and scary to her, so this was a big expression of trust. I love how in this shot she looks like she's sucking her thumb for reassurance, just like a little kid.

They're pretty much the definition of cute. :-)

Do you breed the sugar gliders? Which country are yoy in, please? Too cute, and those eyes!!!

[nutmeg3]

I'm in the US, but no, I don't breed them. I have 3 as pets, 2 I bought as babies and one I adopted as an adult when her previous owner couldn't keep her anymore. They really are adorable, and those big eyes get me every time. I can't look at them without smiling.

So cute. Someday when I'm out of the cat business I'd love to have a pair.

My cats have learned to ignore them - and the gliders are in big, non-tippy cages, which helps - but your cats sound a lot more devilish than mine, so yeah, probably better to wait.

Met a lady when we stopped at the pet shop, that has a vet too, that said she just got a pair. Said she was in love already

Aw, cutie! At least one of my cats would see nom-nom time, so no little adorable critters like these for me!

My cats (and my dog) have all figured out there's no point in trying to get at the gliders, so they leave them alone, thank heavens.
