Can sugar gliders fly as household pets?

Answer 1

Yes.

Only If you research about them and have them on a good diet and a right size cage.

It really depends on your lifestyle seeing as how they are nocturnal and only wake during the night, if you plan on getting them be sure to do research first.

Answer 2

A Sugar Glider is a smaller version of the "flying squirrel". These cuties love to snuggle in your pocket and have fun. But be careful, Sugar Gliders are awfuly hyper, and you may see him/her gliding around places it shouldn't. Some (cruel) owners get the flaps (whom make the sugar glider glide) surgically removed. But in the wild without them, a Sugar Glider would die within a few days. But I insist that you DO NOT keep one as a pet. No matter how cuddly the look, these guys are wild animals, and should be treated like it.
