There are some things you should know and do when raising a flying squirrel.
-Flying Squirrels are nocturnal (they sleep during the day) but they don't mind being woke up a couple times a day. The best time to handle them is at night.
-When handling your flying squirrel you should be in  a closed room that is flyer safe. NEVER take them outside!
-Once they have bonded with you they will become the perfect pet.
-Flying Squirrels can fly 150' or more for every 50' they are high.
-Flying squirrels don't actually fly they glide.
-Flying squirrels naturally have the softest fur you have ever felt.
-To not get bit, don't grab your squirrel like a rat. Gently cup your hands and scoop them up.
-They can live up to 15 years with the right care.
