Your wide-eyed and bushy-tailed friend is as sweet as can be, and you can help keep her happy and healthy by buying the appropriate sugar glider supplies and sugar glider accessories. Whether you're bringing home a new furbaby or you're treating your pal to something different, there are many options when picking out sugar glider products.
Choosing the right sugar glider habitat is one of the most important decisions you'll make for your fur-iend. When an only child, her cage should be at least 3 feet by 2 feet by 3 feet. Sugar gliders are notorious escape artists, so the bars should be no more than ½ inch apart. Cages that are multiple levels are fur-avorites, like the MidWest Critter Nation cage.
You can keep her comfortable by adding sugar glider bedding to her cage and providing a small pouch or bag for sleeping. Her cage should have branches and shelves for perching and climbing, sugar glider toys and essentials like a food bowl and water bottle. Also, sugar gliders are omnivores, so your furbaby has specific nutritional requirements that need to be met daily with special sugar glider food and fresh veggies. Plus, stock up on her favorite treats like Peter's Apple Slices and Exotic Nutrition Fly Larvae.
