Rodents to Marsupials

Greetings,

I have been a pet rat owner for a couple of months now, but I have a strong feeling that when I get two sugar gliders in the future, they could easily take over my heart. I simply cannot stop looking at pictures and videos on YouTube!

Honestly, I love rats! They are very social and very loving; I can never get away from their kissing and licking. But, what's really hard to deal with is that they only have a life expectancy of about two years. It's very sad. You get attached and then they die. They also have very bad health issues.

Anyway, I can't wait till the day I get my gliders! I'm thinking about early 2009. However, I'm not making any set date. I already know who I'm going to get my gliders from. I'm stoked that such a good breeder is only a couple hours away.

Cheers,
Dustin Neal
