The question of whether or not sugar gliders make good pets depends entirely on the individual and their particular lifestyle. Owning a sugar glider requires lots of time and dedication, as they are considered a nocturnal animal who loves to makes lots of noise and play all night long. This means the best owners for them are ones who are at home a lot or do not have to be up at 5 am in the morning. The perfect owner is one who works at home and can make their own schedule, works at night, or one is retired or disabled. If a working owner leaves at 5 am and does not come home until the late afternoon or early evening, they would need to dedicate some time to preparing the food and socializing with the little sugar glider on a daily basis when they come home. Keeping the cages clean are also important chores to be done every day to every other day, This is the type of pet that requires lots of companionship, as they are considered one of the most social animals there are.

The Internet is full of individuals selling what they thought they wanted, cute little sugar gliders who have become the world's most popular pet without researching into who they are and what they need.

They warm the heart and makes you want to grab one up and take it home. Very few people can resist these animals' "cuteness" until they begin to grow up. It is at this time when the lack of research begins to show up. They will urinate down your arm if you pick them up right away when awakening, bite or nip at you when becoming startled, or you find the jar of crickets for the daily feedings tipped over and instantaneously this becomes the focus of the moment, while attempting to find ALL of them before nightfall.
