This article for Chewy will answer a tricky question among potential pet parents: Should I get a sugar glider as a pet?
As interest in these exotic pets increase, we want to prepare readers for the type of care they require. I'm hoping to interview US-based veterinarians/vet techs ; sample questions below. Thank you!
1) Is it ethical to keep a sugar glider as a pet? Is it possible to provide them with a happy/healthy/enriching life?
2) What type of habitat should you be prepared to provide for a sugar glider?
3) Do sugar gliders bond with humans? Will they bond with other sugar gliders?
4) How do you prevent stress in sugar gliders?
5) What's something most people are surprised to learn about sugar gliders/caring for sugar gliders?
