I just now witnessed my glider grab my pillow and viciously rub his head on it as well as his entire tummy. He literally took his two little hands and just threw his face into it and rubbed like the pillow was giving him a noogie (however you spell it).

Is this scent marking? He has never done this.

Nah, you won't have to fight him for it, he's probably marked you too! Besides head-rubbing, gliders will also "chest rub" and "booty dance." It's difficult to see them do it while they're perched on your shoulder (unless you have a mirror), but if you notice him doing what looks like a sexy push-up (where he stretches his arms up, and then moves his chest forward while dipping down to rub it on you) that's scent marking as well. :) The "booty dance" is sort of exactly what it sounds like: he might scoot his back end side to side while tracing a faint zig-zag trail with his cloaca. Even my neutered male does this! :)

Anyway, I hope now you can catch him marking you, because there's nothing better that realizing your glider is saying "I love you!" and claiming you as his own!
