Special Report: Getting Started

print this page

Welcome to the rewarding world of Sugar Gliders! If you are reading these Special Reports you have probably just bought at least one baby Sugar Glider, or you’re interested in learning more about owning one. Either way, you will want to know as much as possible about how to properly feed and care for baby Sugar Gliders, and THAT is what these Special Reports are for.

Before you read any further, it’s important for you to understand that there is no one “right way” to raise and care for your Sugar Glider. Unfortunately, nowadays there is a LOT of gossip and incorrect information out there about Sugar Gliders, especially on the Internet, and most of these self-proclaimed Internet “experts” (many of whom only have less than a dozen pairs of gliders themselves) will try and lead you to believe that THEIR way is the only way to do things, and that anything else is going to hurt – or even kill – your Gliders. The following link is an independent article that examines the damaging effects of Sugar Glider "expert" internet sites and message boards. It is well-worth taking a couple minutes to read this... Special Report: Sugar Glider Message Boards - Helpful or Harmful

To kind of put this in a little better perspective for you, as of the time these reports were originally written, the team here at PocketPets has over FIFTEEN YEARS of experience raising Sugar Gliders and placing literally TENS of thousands of these adorable little animals into loving homes just like yours, all around the country. However, even with all these years of experience under our belts, we at PocketPets are STILL always coming up with new and better ways to care for our Gliders. The reason why we strongly suggest that you follow ALL the techniques suggested in these reports is not only because they have been very successful for us, but even MORE importantly, they’ve PROVEN (over many years now) to be EXTREMELY effective for thousands of our customers.

With that in mind, here is what we suggest. No matter what ANY other book or website might “claim”, PLEASE at least start with our methods, and then as you learn more about Sugar Gliders and have more experience under your belt, you can explore other ideas.

Now, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with exploring new ideas when it comes to raising and caring for sugar gliders but like we said, all the techniques we share with you in these reports have been proven to be both safe and effective in raising literally THOUSANDS of Gliders over the last 15 years. Therefore, in the unlikely event you choose to try any other techniques that you find on the Internet, we urge you to please do so with EXTREME caution.

As always, before trying something new, it’s usually a good idea to just ask our advice so that you don’t end up experimenting with your Glider’s health and safety. Chances are we’ve already tried it at one point or another over the last 15 years - and can tell you exactly why it’s not a good idea. Also, we love to hear from our Moms and Dads with your successes, funny stories and sweet pictures of your gliders – so keep them coming!

Now on to the “meat and Potatoes”!

Happy reading!
The PocketPets Team
