Are sugar gliders good pets?

They make WONDERFUL pets but they require A LOT of care and maintenance. You can't just feed them "glider pellets". They have to have a wide ortment of fresh fruits, veggies, and live worms for protein. You need to closely monitor what they eat so they don't eat too much phosphorous. They need to have a cage that's not so much wide but very tall and they need you. You need to be able to spend a lot of time with them. Also, you need to check with a vet beforehand to make sure they will treat a suggie. Many won't. Also, I would recommend you get two because without a cage mate, they can become unhappy. If that's a little much for just one, you might wanna rethink getting a suggie. They're great pets but only for people who are patient, willing to work with them, and willing to make sure they have everything they need to lead happy and healthy lives. They're quite pricey to start up with if you're getting them everything they need. My cage alone cost upwards of about $300. But they really are sweet and friendly if you care for them properly and get one that was bred and not caught from the wild.
