Who would of thought?

 Who would of thought?

I'm a grandma of 10 and did I ever imagine I could add a small little feller to my clan and be so happy. We are on day five and everything is moving so well. At first I was really nervous. For one he is a 6yr old male. (I should of said that right from the top) so I really didn't think he would ever bond to my husband and I. BUT!!! SO FAR SO GOOD.His sleep pattern is way different then every video or message I've read or watched. He wakes up when we do and naps off and on and sleeps through the night. He has never gripped at us. Nor have we heard him bark yet. But weather in his cage or pouch he is right with on of us. I work from 2am until 9am so the hubby is with him and when I get home the hubs leaves to work. I think maybe just having a lot of attention and a nice cage (instead of a pet taxi) has helped us a lot. He stays out if his pouch a lot. Is that normal? And another crazy thing is he won't get into a regular pouch he Carrys around the one I made him? It's still a progress in the works and I've probably read more the last few days then I ever did in school but we love it. Like I said he is 6 and never had a name. It would be great if someone would like to give us some suggestions?

His sleeping schedule sounds way off, they're supposed to be nocturnal! But maybe during his lifetime some owner of his kept him awake during the day, or changed the light cycle in the house and threw off his sleeping. My baby is very calm and loves his pouch, always wants to be hidden, but every glider is different. Yours could be very curious and always want to know what's going on! They do seem to take to a certain pouch and not like the others, but if you remove the pouch they like they will still use others. It's just a preference, like how we prefer to sleep in our own beds. They really do make great pets for people who have time for them, good luck with your new rescue!
