Yes, they CAN make good pets to the right people. If you have the time and patience to dedicate to them and their diets

The temperments varies from glider to glider, but if you go to a good breeder who handles the joeys from a young age and you continue with their interaction, they can be lovely cuddly little things.

Most people keep them in the indoor aviary-type cages, but they can be housed in large upright vivs or home-made cages, as well.

As for diet... That is the hardest part... If you go to www.sugar-glider.co.uk/forum and have a look in the diet section, you'll see quite a few diets to choose from. Please join and ask any questions you may come up with...

Well, first bit of info needed is that you need to get at least two. Gliders are very social and need company of their own kind.
