The sad truth is, the internet is full of self-proclaimed, Sugar Glider “expert” websites that claim they will ship “beautiful hand-tamed joeys to an airport near you”.
Many of these same sites also “bait in” uninformed customers by promising discount prices as low as $100-$150 per animal.
The simple truth is that in today’s internet age, ANYBODY can “look & sound” professional. However, in reality, whenever you buy any animal over the internet, you never KNOW for sure what you’re REALLY going to get – and as the old saying goes: “there’s no such thing as a free lunch”…
By contrast, at Pocket Pets we PREFER not to “ship” individual animals. Instead, we like to hand-deliver each baby to our new “moms & dads”; and personally meet each of them face-to-face. We do this not only because it is extremely expensive to “ship” a baby and all their supplies (usually an additional $200-$300) – but much MORE importantly because it is easier on young babies to be hand delivered.
At Pocket Pets we strongly feel it’s important for new “moms & dads” like yourself to actually “meet” the people you are dealing with – especially when buying a Sugar Glider, who will be part of your family for the next 12-15 years. This is why we travel all around the country every week introducing people to these wonderful little pets.
As such, if you’ve just come back from seeing us at an event near you – (and are in the middle of “doing your homework” right now) – we strongly suggest you come back and see us while we are still in town. Our professionals will be more than happy to PERSONALLY answer any questions you still have – and help welcome these adorable little pets into your home.
However, if you are absolutely certain that you are ready to buy a sugar glider - visit our adoption headquarters to get more information about our Preferred Adoption Program. We must let you know that demand is at an all time high, but if we have available babies you'll be able to request consideration for adoption..
