Help me identify my mystery guest!!
Jul. 14th, 2012 12:18 amDUDE. I think I just saw a sugar glider out on my balcony!!
Whatever it was, the cats were transfixed. They wanted to chase/pounce on/eat it SO BADLY.
It is not a squirrel, so please don't tell me that it is. It is much smaller than a squirrel, the bars on my balcony are only 5" apart. Its head and eyes were round and the eyes were really big proportional to the head, which would make sense for a nocturnal animal. I didn't get a picture clearly showing it, but when it climbed down the chair, I think I saw extra skin between its arms and legs? But I didn't see it glide.
One time pet that got loose? Escapee from the local zoo? Considering I live in VA, and the native habitat of a sugar glider is AUSTRALIA, it's very intriguing!
