well I can say that glider will draw blood lol. I gotten bitten by at least 3 of the 5 girls in the one colony and I still got 3 more to do I am so worried that if i hold them 2 tight I can injure them or suffocate them in my grip I know momo little nose was getting a little dark color so I had to stop and let her rest for a few minutes. What irks me is at work I don't have a 3rd of the trouble these turds are giving me tonight.

so while trying to place food bowls in the glider cages last night Luna makes a jump for the door ( hoping to get some food first ) and ends up on the floor and running a muck for about 15-20 minutes outside her cage I keep telling Ringtail she needs to spend some time with them they not display gliders even if they unfriendly. At the rate it going I be doing all their care and she just uses them for photo props in her glider shots lol.

ok so today was the girls turn at work with me. ( that 5 gliders in one pouch/shirt pocket pouch). I had my wife sew a pocket to the inside of my work shirt. a rep gave me a few months back. for the gliders to crawl in if they wanted to sleep closer to my skin. Well Little LeeLoo ( my 3 legged girl is dead asleep and starts barking in her sleep. I recorded this on my phone. I know it was her cause the other glider in the shirt was poking her head out. I could feel Leeloo in a ball and barking , so hard not to laugh as she doing so. and I walked around work for 15 minutes with a glider barking in her sleep.

it been a month, been hoping and worried about our buddy Tucker and hoping for good news, I helped a few friends get a friend for their other glider. I also will be working in the near future ( hopefully) with a person that does rescues with finding homes for the gliders. ( and possible getting Muffin her own cage-mate. as she does not get along with any of the current gliders. My wife's Friend asked me to join her glider Facebook group and possible Mod slot since i am online so much and seem to help people a lot in person. i want to still create a Facebook group for east coast glider People From say New York to Carolina border for gliders most People I found are Mid west and west lol.
We had to drive home with only E-brake a week ago as it seems I lost a brake pad pulling into our development ( I guessing pad got stuck sideways and wore the little ear piece off and never really squealed but resulted in new rotors and front pads. AS of tonight (10-*17-15)they yelling frost and freeze warnings I had to run the heater with windows cracked open to let the unit burn all the dust off. I hope she loves her anny gift since it will help with her glider making stuff.( cant say what it is until after she gets it lol)

I was shocked this wast weekend when I open the cage all my girls come a running for the door and jump into the pouch (even little Leeloo and her 3 legged butt, I just wish marshmallow and her would stop fighting on who at the bottom of the pile at times.

So ow we are up to a whooping 9 gliders, We got a cremino from Lopeezy pets ( spelled right i hope ) On 11/16 and so far he grab fingers happy thinking he getting a treat. He actually never had a meal-worm until today ( i had to slice it open for him and man he was going nuts in the pouch as I wear it. I am hoping that he will adjust well and Muffin will accept him as cage mate once the QT is over and intros can be done. If not I bet the girls will be happy to make their 5 into a 6pack lol.

So excited to report that Sterling and Muffin seem to actually want to be with each other. over the last few days we started to talk about to scent swap with blankets and such. I am still rotating taking different gliders to work with me on the days I work and when I am home I have at least 1 with me at all times it seems like. My wife was carrying muffin this morning around (spending time with her since she cant take gliders to work) and I had Sterling on me. Well I guess muffin was wanting to see the new guy she been sharing her bed(us) with since I guess I smelled different. She jumped from my wife onto me and started to go nuts sniffing and marking ( which she does when I have he girls on me) well when I have a glider on my I have the pouch unzipped so they can poke their nose out if want to.. before I could make a grab for her or to zip the pouch up she darted down my shirt and right into the pouch I heard one crab and they both starting purring ( popping sound) and My wife sitting there with her mouth open and I waiting for a hiss and the sounds of fighting but nothing but purring and some grooming when we dared to look. i have had them both in a pouch ( unzipped still in case one needs to flee lol)but the only noise is popping when I wake them up. SO I have been tasked with cleaning Muffin cage so it neutral smelling and move it into our bedroom so we can now keep an eye, and ea r on them for the next 2-3 weeks Until QT is over. My wife and I guess that they decided they didn't want to wait until the QT was over. This was why we got Sterling was so muffin would no longer be alone ( we planned to do Intros between xmas and the new year, once we knew that they didn't freak out with scent swapping. ) Muffin who was a Pocketpets demo glider and was abandon when they didn't want o renew the contract ( and seem to switch they deal into a lic supplier ( you bought into the pocketpet name and setup your own selling and you purchased the gliders and such though them to sell. ) We bought Muffin from the petstore and she was officially retired and enjoys life as a pet( she really bonded to my wife and I when she came to the store and as said started our love into this slavery to gliders lol) We know she never accepted other gliders ( based on the PP people talks when she first came to the store ) well we can lay that to rest now. lol

so today was a hoot, wife and i did some holiday shopping) and got some lunch before she had to go to work. I had several people come up and asked to see the girls , since they knew what the pouch was. They all were shocked how well behaved and that they stayed on me the entire time. Then the map cop came up and asked if I was a vender trying to sell the gliders without the permission of the mall. I started to laugh so hard I had to sit down and the entire time people were looking at the girls and asking questions. I finally told the cop that they were my personal pets and I would be getting escorted out if I was there and that was someone selling gliders in the mall. The cop looked confused and I explained to him that they were not something people should buy on impulse and explained the info about the diet and such. I also explained why I would have to be escorted out if a company was in the mall selling gliders. ( he actually seemed to care and understand. I think once the holiday rush is over I may look into putting a packet together and see if I can meet with the mall heads and arrange a band on animal sales in the mall.

Terry, PETA has an agreement in place with the major mall management companies in the U.S. that they will not allow Pocket Pets to sell out of kiosks anymore. If they are still selling out of your mall then they are managed by a smaller management company and PETA didn't talk to them. Around here Pocket Pets is now doing home shows, county fairs and Comic Con

Terry,
Around here Pocket Pets is now doing home shows, county fairs and Comic Con all places they should not have these guys due to the noise and such. Just shows they only care for profit as they no place to go and talk to a person in person or to see how they are in a lower stress environment

I finally got the system worked out for doing the gliders nails lol. one at a time in the pouch and and soon as I am done they get a super meal worm. the funny part is watching them trying to hook into the work with shorten nails it so funny . Poor Elda slipped right off my shoulder trying to grab her worm and hold on at same time.

So i little update I ma able to pick up sterling with no crabbing and limited handling( he scared some still and want to look for pouch.) the only issue we have he wants to grab fingers and nips, not sure if it due to the eye issues that cremes seem to have ( or he just got it bad) or he thinks all fleshy looking blurs are treats needing opening, )or he just a simple butt head and likes to bite the tree.

well we are all still here, Sterling loving life with Muffin( as she does with him) sadly we think cause she done it so long she still over grooms a little on the one side ( with shorter ear). All the other gliders are doing well, Still worried that Leeloo and Elda are not putting on weight but are not loosing it either. I went though a 50 count of wax-worms with the gliders in 3 days ( mostly the lightest 2 to hope for a weight gain ) but not a gram more
