I have decided to keep my Sugar Gliders beside my desk, I spend so much time working here it means I will be near them almost all the time. Good plan? Or will I find my laptop smothered in all sorts in no time? -.- I've read of the poop and food throwing  How far can they fling it?  |

No its a good idea to have them where you spend most time as long as its warm enough. You can have a good ol chin wag with them so they get to know your voice. Its best you put a fleece blanket on the sides and back of the cage and maybe use a tupperware kitchen when your feeding them, this will eliminate a majority of the food problem.

Thanks Tillie, it's near the radiator that's always on low, they should be warm enough there  Thank for the feeding tips |

Foufou, my kitchen is cold, but I don't have carpet in this room so it's easy enough to clean, I just organised the room and had visions of being bombarded while I work |

By the kitchen Foufou meant using a tupperware tub thats turned upside down with 1 end cut out or a hole each side, the gliders go in and feed in it so a majority of food gets spat out in there. Like this...(dont worry if pic doesnt come out Foufou will put it right!)  [/img] |

lol I didn't mean your kitchen... meant the tupperware kitchens tillie invented. Here... http://www.sugar-lumps.com/forum/index.php/topic,1205.msg9992.html#msg9992Just make sure the radiator isn't to hot for them when they jump on it and there is nothing little they can chew on... they grab and chew anything! I was trying to write last night and foufou kept biting the end of my pen! |

Just click on the IMG code and it copies and then just paste that here, there is nothing else to add. |

I couldn't find one big enough for ages.. so I nicked my mums and left her an IOU note from foufou and waffle... she was very annoyed with me, but chris and I were laughing so much so she couldn't stay mad for long.
