I have noticed that my gliders fur looks "cracked". The air is pretty dry right now over here as we are in a change of season from winter to spring.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced this and if this could be the reason for the "cracked" fur.
Do gliders get a thicker coat with fur underneath when it's cold?
I am hoping Marz will come along to give some input.

Not sure about the undercoat thing...but I know people have said that the glider's fur is more cracked with the season changes.

I think gliders do have an undercoat. Don't all Black Beauties have a black undercoat on their bellies? Mine do. The fur is blond but if you look down into the base of the fur, close to the skin, it's black.

Interesting!

We have had discussion here in the past about some peopl noticing their fur gets thicker during cold seasons as well.

If we never loved, then maybe we would never feel pain. Love anyway. It's worth it.
