ugh god that music is literally terrible let me just hear the squeaks, yuppies.

Crabbing? that’s exactly what it is! I’m just gonna gripe and I have the floor and you’re going to listen! TOO funny. Especially the little “talk to the hand” pose she did over and over. That just wiped me out.

Just to let you know…

Sugar gliders are Australian native animals, and as such, it’s illegal to export them.

Consequently, the only way they could have got out of the country wass by cruel smuggling methods. Plenty of mothers and babies would have died as they were stuffed into socks and cloth tubes, and sewn into the linings of coats and bags, in order to transport them illegally.

As cute as they are, it makes me sad to see our native fauna kept as pets overseas, knowing the cruel trauma that they (or their parents) went through, whilst being smuggled out.

Please don’t support this cruel practice. Don’t buy pets / animals that were obtained through this selfish and murderous trade.

Australian Marsupials are protected animals. Let’s keep it that way.

SQUEEEEEEEEEE! What precious little butterballs!
(And LOL at jealous kitty in the background.)

I think they look more like eensy badgers than anything, really, though I hear they have much friendlier personalities in general.

For all those worried about Ms. Grummpersons. She will be ok as long as she gets lots of love. My little sugar baby’s name is Tinker Bell (she is small, can be moody and flaps). When we first got her all she did was crab (that noisiness) for about 3 weeks. I was worried but we kept giving her LOTS of luvins and she came around. She is now a sassy little ball of fluff that absolutely LOVES to cuddle under blankies and get her little belly rubbed. Yep, she will lay on her back as we rub her fluffy little white belliness. Girls don’t stink BUT THE BOYS DO (it’s a *musk*). And they are SUPER HIGH maintenance, especially if you have 1 by themselves. You have to pay LOTS (2-4 hours a day of CONSTANT handling) of attention for them to properly attach to you and get the love they need. I would not trade my widdle Tinker Bell for anything though. They live like 12 years too.

I still want one as a pet! Mebbe for Easter!
So small and cute and snugglie!!
*SQUEEEE*

so jack was singing about sugar gliders all along! this explains the bubbly freakin toes! i was half-way out my door to petco until the 2nd one opened its mouth . . . thank goodness!

She may be cute but she’s about to lay you out! Look at her right arm pulled back, palm extended, ready to smack the cr*p out of you!

And I don’t blame her. She’s clinging to you, trying to get your attention, and you’re stroking another girl! I’d slap you too.
