 Dying of Hunger?

Hi i did a lot of research on the internet and so i wrote all of the information on my "only glider info" book so then i proceed of asking my auntie what she had think about them

She thinks they are hard to take of and need to be handfeed at least once aa day or they won't touch the bowl and they die of hunger,She knows this from her friend who left her sugar glider one day found out that he died.

Also my auntie had one but died in a mouth of a cat,But i doubtly belive that my aunt researched anything about them WHAT SHOULD I DO!

There are no animals who let themselves die of hunger in normal conditions if they have food available. It is true that sugar gliders have a special diet and that you should give them fresh food every night, however it is not true you have to handfeed them, unless they are really young (and should not have been separated from their parents) or sick. Having only one glider is not wise, they are social animals who thrives in the presence of others, which is why it is advised to get at least 2. They need more attention than usual pets, you have to spend time with them, give them toys to stimulate their intellect, and so on... They are not really difficult to take care of once you know what to do, but it is a commitment, so it should be well researched before deciding to get any.
