Gatsby is going to be an adorable Caramel Male. He was out of pouch on 04/11/25.
Caramels are a beautiful sugar glider, but from a different country than our regular Petaurus breviceps. Caramel’s Latin name is Petaurus breviceps Flavidus. They are a different sub-species from the rest of the sugar gliders found here. We cannot interbred them with our sugar gliders, as it will cause sterility in the lines.
They can, however, live in pet colonies with our other gliders. In fact, they are much more calm and not as high strung. If there is at least on Caramel in the colony, they can help to calm the others down if they get stressed.
Our line of Caramels are from imported stock, and are pure Caramel. No other line will be added to them.
Caramels are traditional Caramel color and varying shades of browns and grays. They have large ears, which makes them simply look larger. They have interesting traits such as having a prehensile tail and they use it to forage and carry toys and other items to their sleeping pouch.
If going to a pet home, Gatsby will be need to be neutered first, before leaving. If going to a pet home, we will be automatically adding his neuter cost of $100 with my vet.

Don’t ever let us be alone. Sugar gliders are colony animals and should never be kept by themselves. A lone glider can suffer from stress which can lead to depression, sickness and possible self mutilation. Often times, a lone glider will refuse to bond with a new owner until they get a buddy for them. We at My Little Sugar Glider do not believe that gliders should ever be alone. Please do what is best for the animal.
All male sugar gliders purchased as pet only will be laser neutered by my vet before they leave here, when it is safe. Males must be 12 weeks out of pouch and fully descended to avoid injury.
Hubble is currently intact, and will be safe to neuter the beginning of April.
If you are purchasing more than one animal, we can ship multiple animals in one crate for one price.
