how much time do they take?
As mentioned earlier, one of the most unique things about Sugar Gliders as household pets is how strongly they “bond” to their human families. Bonding is a “process” that can take anywhere from a few days - to two or three months - and just like human children, no two Gliders are exactly the same.For that reason, we provide all our new “moms & dads” with proven, step-by-step instructions (including lots of special “tips & tricks” we've learned over the last 15 years) that DRAMATICALLY speed-up the bonding process - and create a deep, lasting relationship of love and trust between you and your new babies. (see free report "bonding" for more info)
The single most important factor in bonding with a Sugar Glider is their AGE - and that is precisely WHY we only sell babies when they are between eight and twelve weeks old. In the wild, Sugar Gliders normally live in “colonies” of 10-15 other Gliders - and when they begin the “bonding phase” of their lives (approximately 8-12 weeks out of the pouch) they “instinctively want” to bond to a whole GROUP. In other words, they are not just a “one person” animal.
When brought into a family setting with children and other pets, they will normally consider everyone (including the pets) to be their “colony”, and will bond to that group for life. While they bond to everyone in the family, each glider will almost always have a favorite person (usually the person who holds them the most) that will be their “primary bond”.
Contrary to what some internet “expert” sites and “chatrooms” try to claim, bonding is NOT a time-consuming, exhaustive “ordeal” that requires 12-18 hours a day. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
As previously outlined, for many years now the team of pros here at Pocket Pets™ have successfully placed literally TENS of THOUSANDS of these little darlings into loving homes all around the country - and we provide all our new “moms & dads” with very simple, detailed instructions that make the bonding process both FUN and REWARDING. (see free report "bonding" for more info) It's a small, up-front “investment” that will reward your entire family with countless years of love and companionship. :-)
