I can't seem to decide on a name for this little guy. He's been everything from Skooter to Snoobi and now I'm leaning towards Ricky. What a change!! His big black eyes remind me of Ricky from the Lucy Shows, which I'm a HUGE fan of. So, I think it's going to be Ricky. That's been the easiest for me to remember too.
Yesterday, Ricky scratched my arm right above my elbow. I didn't think anything of it since I have a zoo full of animals and it's not unusual to have a scratch from something. This morning though, it's pretty infected. I've washed it deeply with an antibiotic soap and put an antibiotic cream on it and it does feel and look a little better. It's taught me to treat any sugar glider scratches right after playing with Ricky though.
Ricky did eat all the veggies I left for him last night. Sure beats the apples and cat food he was used to. Today, I peeked into his cage to see where he was and lo and behold, he heard me and out from his little hammock he came. I think he was disappointed when I didn't have a treat for him, so next time I go armed with a pea or a green bean.
