Hello South Carolina!
You really have to meet Laurie "Suggiemom"...
What a great "Mommy"!
She runs a wild life rescue, and I got to snuggle and feed a baby raccoon! Also, she currently has two little rascal Joeys. HOW ADORABLE! We got to play together (me & the joeys!). I brought Sugar & Nibbles with me, and Sugar gave Laurie lots of love. If she gets the seal of approval from Sugar, then she gets it from me too!
Laurie has wonderful Suggies, she is good at clipping nails, and has a heart of gold!

Oh, and I can't forget Tara "Saturngirl" from Columbia. She drove all the way here with the crazy gas prices just to snuggle with more suggies and the baby raccoon! How cool is that? It was great to meet you both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The point of this SC posting? There ARE great people here in SC that have suggies, and I want to meet MORE!! Let's make some toys, and snuggle some fuzzies!!

So, Laurie, when are we making cage sets???? I'll bring my sewing machine!

Hey now...I have a reputation to uphold, don't be tellin' people I'm too nice.....LOL

The first time Tara met me she looked scared to death....I said "See, I don't REALLY have horns and a tail...." LOL

We'll definitely have to get together and sew. It might be the only way I get motivated enough to do it! LOL

Awwww, thats awesome! (And I am SO JEALOUS.....you got to cuddle a baby raccoon! lol)

Mary, you just don't know what it is like... Can you see the face on me when she was tickling me? I think that one says it all!
(edited... Mary, sorry, I thought this was the raccoon posting, LOL... you know the one I mean...)

Laurie, I'm avaialable!
I have to go to the dentist tomorrow, but there always the next day... and the next...

K, I'll let ya know!

Hi Sari
It was so nice meeting you on Saturday. As soon as I get a sewing machine I'll be so there making cage sets with ya'll.

The 2 little joeys Sweet and Sour came from Columbia. I got to have them in my house overnight and took them up to Laurie. I love little joeys....they are so cute!

Tara, it was nice to meet you too! Yes, the Joey's were SOOOO cute! I got to play with them for a while. I think they are expecting it now, so Laurie's got her hands full!
You know, I am willing to share my machine with you, if you'd like to join us...

Hey SC community!!
first lets start with my sad story

Three weeks ago I purchased a supposed "bonded pair" ... Two nights ago my male died... I have never been more devastated! I don't know what could have happened! I have taken his body to a vet and they think that it could have been malnutrition but most likely it was a preexisting condition. Now my little girl will not be a mommy and I have lost someone so precious to me! I would have gladly taken in a sick glider just to make its last days a bit better but it isn't fair to allow me to get attached and have him jerked away from me. i WISH i knew what happened, I followed everything they said to do, but the vet thinks they weren't fed enough. I am so upset because I followed the eating regiment exactly from what the supposed expert handler gave me....... I wish I has followed my gut and changed the diet but he said it wasn't safe....not fair. For now I must worry about her. I have gotten her checked out and she seems to be in great health. How can someone do this? I'm going to miss him so much.
So for now I am just trying to give her all the attention in the world and help her get over losing her buddy. I am currently searching for another addition to our family, I am allergic to dogs and cats so suggies are so perfect for me. I will probably wait a little while before getting another one, I dont know how I can replace him. I hope she will be ok ...any advice for a grieving suggie is greatly appriciated , oh not to mention a grieving owner!!!
awwwwwww i miss him.


Anyways I have had a hard time getting over his death but again like I said I have now become a slave to my little darling muffin. I am looking for her a friend so if anyone has any suggestions please let me knwo ! I would love to get intouch with some people in the area and maybe we can do something about the mistreatment of these animals in this state and then talk about how much we love them I am from clemson too by the way!!!

---Alexandria
Now only mommy to one
But missing bear more than anything!

By the way Laurie I can't tell you how big of a help you have been through my ordeal I would love to meet up without you.... and talk suggies and introduce you to little miss muffin, again thanks, you're an angel..oh and btw.....i am getting a gigantic cage and a tent for her hahahaha...i think she'll love it

Welcome Littlebear!
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! Who did you get your suggies from?? And, did you change Muffin's diet yet? I use BML. If you would like some help, I'd be happy to assist! checking out all you can on this site will help the most. Also, Laurie is GREAT (as you already know). I am in the Greenville SC area, and would love to meet you one day. Where are you?

Hi Sari
She's in Clemson.

Hey Sari,
Yeah I am in Clemson, I have changed her diet to a leadbeater diet....that was the suggestion the vet made should i change it again? Greenville isn't far at all i would love to meet up with you sometime! Send me a PM and maybe we can meet up!

Thanks Linda!

oh god im everywhere, Clover, West Union, even some other cities out of SC, I live in about 3 different cities a year, fun

oh my! What does your husband do that makes that happen? (I think you mentioned in the other post, it was about your husband's job?) WELCOME to Glider Central!

yup, he works with duke energy, so we move between clover, sc west union, sc and denver, nc. we move every 3 months or so. we live in a 36ft camper, so its nice cuz we dont have to change homes, just where we park our home.

Hi, I live 2.5 miles from Sari Sariyappa and about 18 miles from Laurie Suggiemom. I have a rescue glider I got from Laurie "Raku" and he's doing great. Sari and I just got our twin girls my "Glaze" & Sari's Destiny from Virginia sugargliderlady and we've been having glider play dates for the girls. They are so glad to see each other that they hug & kiss every time they meet again. Richard and I moved here from the Pittsburgh, PA area and love the weather and the people.
GO STEELERS!

Hi Jana!
Welcome to GC and welcome to South Carolina!
Jana also got the chance to meet a bunch of people at this year's SSS in SC, so start planning for next year peeps!

Thought I would say hi. My boyfriend purchased our first Suggie this past Sunday. His name is Quantum, and he's precious. He's slowly warming up to us, but still crabs a good bit. This is a great forum. I'm learning a lot, and I'm glad there are people out there I can talk to if I need to.

Hi Gabrielle! You live in Columbia? Tara (Saturngirl) is in Columbia too. I'm sure she will post, she is very friendly! I wonder how far from eachother you guys are??

I hope to meet you some day soon, we all LOVE our suggies!! Welcome to GC!
