Question
just wondering if you can train sugar gliders not to urinate on us. is this possible and if so how ??

Answer
No.  I'm sorry, Kimee.  There is no way to train them not to do this.  You can lessen it a little by leaving them in their cage for about 10 minutes after they wake up.

Sugar gliders also claim their territory by marking.  That includes people.  It has often been said that sugar gliders mark you because they love you.  But you will need to just get used to this one.  There is no training them not to.

Best of luck,

Laurie
