Sugar Glider Sugar Bear Bonding 1
Sugar glider sugar bears bond very well with humans, which makes them amazing pets with the bond lasting a lifetime.
Bonding is a very important component of owning a sugar glider sugar bear and, therefore, it is imperative that your breeder is USDA licensed and experienced in instructions on bonding.
It is best to bond with your sugar glider sugar bear when it’s a baby, around seven to twelve weeks out of the pouch. This is the optimal time to play with your sugar glider sugar bear as much as you can. Since sugar glider sugar bears live naturally in a colony, it is easy for them to bond very well with the entire family without playing favorites. Also, they have a remarkable ability to bond with other house pets like cats and dogs. Sugar glider sugar bears bond by smell and, therefore, a large part of bonding involves them sleeping in a pouch around your neck. This is why an easy way to improve the bonding process with your sugar glider sugar bear is to rub a piece of cloth over everyone in the family and place this inside their cage so that your sugar glider sugar bear bonds with everyone even while sleeping.
You should not feel intimidated by baby sugar glider sugar bears when they make noises and act tough. Instead you should take charge in a loving way and remember that they can’t cause any serious damage. Keeping your sugar glider sugar bear in smaller start up cages ensures you pick up and hold them well. You should not put them in hanging fleece pouches as it is difficult to pick them up without scaring them and therefore impedes the bonding process. Just like humans, baby sugar glider sugar bears have different personalities and some trust you faster than others. Therefore you should be persistent in your efforts and never give up. As an owner, you should never give up on the bonding process with your sugar glider sugar bear.
