I've had a pet southern flying squirrel.

I was amazed at how great of a pet they made.
Boxer was completely tame, and never ever bit.
Very very friendly (an attention whore actually).

I had one. She was the best pet I ever had. Saved her from drowning in the lake. She was only weeks old and missing a front paw. She would never have survived. I tried to take her to the rehabilitator and she told me she would never be capable of living in the wild and would spend her life in a cage on a shelf there. I figured I could give her a better home so I kept her. She became part of the family. Used to walk across the backs of the dogs to get from the couch to the chair. She came when you called her and would run right up me and sit on my shoulder. She played like no animal I have ever seen. She loved to attack my hands and we would sort of box. She would roll around my wrist like a jungle jim. She woul hang from my finger by her teeth and as razor sharp as they were she never once drew blood with them the entire time I had her and we played every day. I really miss here. I want another one.

Thanks for sharing, man, you made my day! :heart:
