One of the most frequently asked questions we receive here
at SunCoast has
to do with controlling the musk odors associated with our furry marsupial buddies! Before we tell
you about this product, however, it's important to
know that proper diet, good cage hygiene and the avoidance of
overfeeding vitamin supplements will go a long way toward odor control.
Additionally, male gliders tend to carry more odor than
female gliders and for permanent odor control, consider getting your male gliders neutered. Once neutered, the male
scent glands will actually close up over time and
it's hard to mark that territory with "no ink in the pen"!
Like cats, sugar gliders tend to clean themselves very well. And we are well aware than many
cat owners like to bathe their cats even though the cat can do most of this on its own. We do
not recommend that you give a sugar glider a bath in the traditional sense.
Bathing with water and soap, regular shampoo or detergent can not only dry out the fur, but the skin as
well - not to mention your suggie may get skittish!
So if you prefer to have a bathed pet with a fresh
scent, we are recommending the use of a new product called Sugar Glider
Dry Shampoo. Specially formulated for a sugar glider's delicate skin, this solution
gently removes dirt and organic matter without harming or drying the skin
and coat. It has no alcohol, detergents or animal by-products. And the
non-aerosol bottle uses a safe, removable pump spray.
The shampoo itself is not actually dry - it just means your
sugar glider can
be dry when you use it. To use, you can either spray it directly on the
fur, or you can spray some in your hands and then apply directly to the fur.
After one minute, gently rub your sugar glider's fur with a clean cloth to
dry and you're done! The shampoo leaves a light, clean, fresh baby powder
fragrance that is delightful!
For the ultimate glider grooming treatment, we recommend following the dry
shampoo with a conditioning product, like Glider Glo
Odor Neutralizer, to help keep your sugar glider's fur
coat silky and shiny. Both products can be used daily, if you
choose, to groom your sugar
glider. And if you want to brush your sugar gliders hair, try a soft
toothbrush ... some gliders like this attention a lot!
