We have added a new flying creature to the population at our house......a sugar bear or sugar glider. We have named her Lexi.
Where did we find such a cute little thing? Yesterday we went to the mall to pick up a few things and they had a special exhibit table set up. We thought that Animal Planet was just showing off cool animals but it was actually a company selling these sugar bears. We fell in love with them pretty quickly. We got all the information about them and realized they were an ideal pet for us. We then walked away from the table and finished our shopping.....kinda wanted time to think and make sure we REALLY wanted one. Well after an hour and a half we decided to take one home.
We are in the bonding stage right now. As weird as it may sound she is snuggled up to dirty socks right now. It is important for them to know your smell and dirty clothes are ideal. Eventually she will be able to go with us everywhere and travel in a shirt pocket.
