I'm Getting A Sugar Glider!

After years of waiting and never thinking I'd get one, I met with a SugarGlider breeder today! I do not have pictures as the baby is not in my possession atm. I will pick he/she whichever I pick from the litter up in about 3-4 weeks. The baby will be 8 weeks old when I get it and as a bond is very important with a sugar glider, I will wear a bonding pouch around my neck and carry the tiny baby around the house while I do my daily chores. I will be playing wow with the baby curled up next to me and I am in general very excited about this pet! I've read up on them and the breeder will further help me understand how to take care of it.
In case your wondering what exactly one is as not everyone knows here is a picture -

They really are gorgeous

Some years back I was part of a national park friends group and we were involved in reintroducing them to a park. They really took off and they're so great to see.

So very very cute
... as for names, Momo is great imo, could be fine for a boy or a girl.
If not any variation would be cool too. Jojo, Popo, Toto, Koko, etc.

If I ever had one of these, I'd totally name it Momo.

Hee, I thought of Momo right away from the flying squirrel in the anime Samurai Champloo.

Congratulations. Just be sure to check your state /city laws to make sure it's fully legal where you live.
If not ask the breeder.

Aye, the little guy is cute.. I guess it all depends on the gender of the baby I get - It seems I may also get it a lot sooner than expected!!!

I used to have a pair of those, they are absolutely adorable!
(although, they are nocturnal and kept me up till I moved them downstairs on the opposite side of the house)
