The pamplet I got from my vet says 90-130g. I think a few grams heavier is ok, I mean, some gliders is just big boned. Lol.

My vet says 85-120 grams but I've seen other vets say different as well. I have 3 that are under 80 grams, 4 that are 85-95 grams and 1 that is over 100 grams.

I think normal weight depends on the glider - just like with people.

Yep, what Rita said. I had two cats at the same time; Troubles was HUGE and he weighed 18.6 - 19.1 pounds! Ringo was tiny, she weighed only 6.8-7.2 pounds. (And yet she ate more than he did.)

Told you guys Molly was "fluffy"! I just weighed her...she's exactly 130g! She looks beautiful, though. Her coat is LUXURIOUS!

My littler gliders are about 80g. Of course, I didn't weigh Miles, the joey. His daddy is just a big glider, though. Not fat, just big. Anyhow, I think he's going to be a big boy, too. He's just long and filling out already very nicely. It's pretty funny, because his Mommy, Dot, is on the little side!

I have one very tiny 4 yr old that weighs around 60-65 gr, she eats good but is very tiny and is beautiful, just like humans it think their bone structure has something to do with weight. I would like to think of myself as VERY VERY large boned not fat but a couple of days ago my youngest granddaughter said she likes to sit on my lap because I was softer than mom and my daughter was ROFL, I told her she was never too old (40) for a good old fashion B*#@ whopping

Haha sugarnanny I can relate! My boyfriend likes to poke me in the stomach and I tell him not to play with my fat! Then he tells me he likes girls instead of boys because we're soft and smell nice.

Not sure how much but Maverick seems like he is twice the others size. Two of them make one of him.
