Osinn11 Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 A little over a decade ago, my wife and I set off on adventure with some crazy little critters called Sugar Gliders. Not long after getting our first we became a rescue for neglected or unwanted Suggies. One day we received a call from our Vet who informed us of a pair of 5-6 year old "mean" Gliders 45 minutes from our house that the owners needed picked up. Long story short they were primarily a breeding pair that had stopped producing joeys. Once this happened the previous owners had put them up for sale and sold them to a family with young children. The pair named Sachi and Keisha had not been socialized and were little terrors. Needless to say we brought them home with us and so began our long crazy ride with our "old ladies". Over the years Sachi became sweet as pie...but her cage mate and partner Keisha never really became friendly. She loved to bite, becuase of this she earned the nickname "Sharky". We lost our little Sachi to a tumor a little over a year ago..and Sometime yesterday we lost our little Sharky. She was truely the old lady of the glider room (15-16 we think). Even though she was mean she sure had a fiery personality that I'm really going to miss. my little Shark. I know Sachi and the rest of your glider family have been waiting for you!

Fr Carmen OFM Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 they are so cute and gorgeous, they remind me of the flying squirrels we have here in parts of the Midwest USA, only your gliders are more colorful. Amazing how they manage to get their little paws into our hearts and leave prints all over the place! Fly high and far Sharky and Sasha! May all your landings be soft and your fruit be ripe and tasty the nuts fat and plentiful and your playmates fun frolic and fast!! Condolences, it's always hard to say "farewell". I do believe we'll see them all again healthy, strong, very alive and forever! Peace and Prayers for your comfort. Carmen OFM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
