Other sugar gliders' owners and sources would seriously advice against owning just one sugar glider since there have been significant cases involving depression, self-mutilation, and overeating. What they fail to point out is the lack of attention/interaction that leads to any possible destructive behavior. Devoting proper amount of attention/interaction is a key to owning a healthy sugar glider. You need to do this daily/nightly for some hours.
Taking Care of A Sugar Glider (Lone Sugar Glider)
