Pleaseee help!! I have a rejected Joey who has been stuck on the bottom of the cage floor for hours on end (i was at work) and I do not have a a rejection kit (yes I know i should have gotten one before she was OOP but unfortunately i did not) and I do not have the supplies that i need to keep her alive through the night. What can I go to a 24 hour convenient store to buy to keep this joey alive. please help now! (p.s. i called Val to no answer)

Get some Pedialyte. And keep them WARM. Very IMPORTANT!!!! If they are not warm, then they go into hypothermia, VERY quickly. Wrap them up in some fleece NOW if you have it, if not, a piece of cloth or a towel. Keep them on your chest, but DO NOT GO TO SLEEP WITH THEM ON YOU. Toomany accidents can occur this way. Get a large tupperware container if you can as well to place them in to sleep in. Get a heat pad to place under the tupperware. A 24 hour Walgreens or CVS should have all of these things.
Here's a link to read up on http://www.suzsugargliders.com/helpforrejectedjoeys.htm

Just as a precaution, I would get some "Little Tummy's Gas Relief Drops", as a precaution for gas, if they have it. You should also get some syringes to feed the joey with.

I believe so. They sell dog and cat food, at least where I am, so I believe they should sell this too.

I am not an expert, just so you know. Just trying to help out. Also, get a small teddy bear, with no strings or any thing hanging that the joey can strangle themself on. You'll need this for the joey to sleep next to at night, when they are not with you.

Yes you need to put the cap on the tupperware. Punch like 20 holes in the top of it though so that the joey can breathe. I have the slowest computer in the world, that's why it's taking me so long to reply. And get a 3 ML syringe. Taht's the smallest they carry I believe.

I Know that you're running around but PLEASE read Suz's site over and over, again, here's the link http://www.suzsugargliders.com/helpforrejectedjoeys.htm
And if I'm saying this right, you have to feed the joey every 20 minutes. But PLEASE double check on that. And if the joey isn't WARM, they will NOT EAT. So make SURE that they stay warm.

You mentioned you called val...did you give connie a call?
This was given to you in you'r other thread.
Emergency Contacts:
Connie: Home 812-890-3148 nights ~ Cell 812-890-9734 days Available 24/7 (Call or text in emergencies and for joey issues)
Val B. 806-274-9177 or 806-395-0181
Give val another call and leave a voice mail...also give connie a call she is available 24/7, connie, and val, are two DIFFERENT, people.

I'm very sorry for your loss. But I see that you started another thread regarding this same thing yesterday. I'm very surprised that no one could help you there. It seems like they were more than willing, especially "lilangel".
Well, what's done is done now. I just can't figure out why you couldn't get any help from any of them... Still... very sorry for your loss...

It was this afternoon (well since it's after midnight it's technically yesterday) but I had my boyfriend stay with the baby Joey and handle the situation with those numbers from the other thread, I believe the name was Connie. He had told me there was no response earlier in the day time but he did not answer the phone when I got home so I won't know what happened with that until tomorrow when he wakes up. Either way, I feel like an idiot for not having bought a rejection kit before the baby was OOP, I just feel like an all around terrible person/glider parent =(

Sorry was posting this at the same time you posted.
I'm SO very sorry for you'r lose.
Glide free baby joey<3
PLEASE, Don't hate you'r gliders, they only do what comes natural to them, the joey could have been sick. You can't hate you'r gliders, you may be feeling sad that this happened, BUT you have to remember THEY lost the joey too.

How did she not get help in her other thread?? She WAS given the set of emercency numbers. What if the people that knew about rejected joeys, were not on, some people DO have lifes that they do need to tend too, and with mother's day they could have been even more busy, cleaning house, cooking, for when family comes. THAT'S why she was given the sets of numbers, VAL, and CONNIE, are two different people to get alhold of, if one did'nt answer should should have called the other, left voice mails. I'm NOT saying you didn't do that MeaghanM, I'm just explaing to Chosen12020. I don't like how you said nobody helped, not EVERYBODY can give joey advise.

Me personally, I would put her in a small box, like a shoe box, or even a soap box, and bury her. There is nothing that you can do for the parents, but go on and take care of them, and *love* them, even though this is hard for you. Don't be *angry* at them. Sugar gliders are very *sensitive* creatures. They pick up on the way you *feel*. You being mad at them, now *that* will stress them out. Like StellaAnLunna said, sometimes joeys get rejected, do to the joey being ill. It's VERY sad. But that's how it goes sometimes, and you can't fault the parents.

I didn't mean it the way that you're *taking* it StellaAnLuna. I only meant, that even *besides* the numbers that you mentioned, there was someone else "lilangel" I believe it was, that said to call her anytime. And like I said, what's done is *done* now. Not to harp on this, or to debate with anyone.

I'm not saying no one would help me.. I had to go to work as soon as I discovered my little munchkin being abandoned. I had my boyfriend come over and gave him those emergency numbers. He had told me he got no response. And when I got home from work it was 3am and I did not expect them to answer when I called which there was no answer. I don't know why StellaAnLuna is so quick to get angry with me here...unless your assuming I was purposely trying to make the Joey die...

Really?!?! I was NOT talkign to YOU That's why I qouted Chosen. I NEVER said that you said nobody will help you, chosen said it and i qouted it!! I have NOT said ONE mean thing too you!! If You think I did I would like it qouted and Highlighted, because apparently I think i said nothing mean to you, and ill stand by my statement, that i was NOT mean. But, honestly, you know what if you think i said anything mean-so be it, if i think i didnt-again SO BE IT..You have you'r opioions just like I have mine-and nobody can change yours and nobody can change mine-mine life is not going to end because somebody don't like me or thinks i'm mean, it's life hon, not everybody going to have same opioions. and I'm NOT assuming you killed your joey on purpose, where did I say "oh meaghanM, you such a horible person, you did it on purpose"? EXACTLY I said that NOWHER!!

Why such a heated debate over the loss of a glider? Meghan, you came for advice, they gave it to you. Not everyone is a planner of bad things. Here's a simple thing my hubby tells me always. Hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. The joey didn't make it because it was fate. It may have been able to have been saved this time...maybe.

<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">OMI sadly it's because they come for advice and MOST of the time they don't follow it:( <b>I am not saying the original poster didn't try,</b> but I have a facebook friend that thinks waiting til Tuesday is acceptable for a SM bleeding glider. I get very frustrated when I try to help someone, or even just tell them get a vet! and they ignore you and wait.
