A Sugar Glider is Switzerland would be VERY lost!
I think they make great pets if you get them from a reputable dealer and have the time to spend with them. I lost mine to the most common ailment of them, Hind Leg Paralysis.
I think I had an excpetional one. She would sit in my shirt pocket, let me scratch her on the head, and eat food out of my hand. The most amazing thing is that she would start "barking" at night anytime I was having a nightmare (common at that time) and wake me up. She stayed in her bird cage during the day, and at night, I opened up and she wandered around the bedroom all night. Every morning, she was righ back in her box in the cage. I would just close the cage before I left in the morning. The only problem I ever had was her eating habits. I had to mount large paper on the walls around her cage. She would eat the fruit and when she got to pieces she didn't like or were to small, she flung them out the back of the cage at the wall. So I basically had cage lining under her and behind her. It will freak any new owner out the first time they yawn. The bottom teeth are retractable. When she would yawn, the bottom teeth came out and went up above her nose. Good thing she was not a biter. That would have hurt. I will say that if you have one, you have to spend alot of time with them. If you have two, then they will socialize to each other and not you.
