 Cat attacks unfortunately account for most Sugar Gliders coming in to care, this little male Glider is no exception. Fortunately WIRES was contacted as soon as possible by the owner of the cat, and we were able to treat him immediately on arrival.
Time lost in cases like this is often detrimental to the Sugar Glider's chances of survival in cases of cat attacks due to the infection caused by the claws and teeth. Even if we may not be able to see the penetration marks on the animal, it is almost certain to have been injured, and unless treated as fast as possible, has the potential to be a sad outcome.
In this case we hope to have a good outcome, and our little male received a companion 5 days after arrival, a female Sugar Glider.
