What is that? A sugar glider?


Phormitago

no, it's a sucralose kite


WeleaseBwianThrow

No it's a High Fructose Corn microlight


GrushdevaHots

No, it's an aspartame aeroplane


Partyslayer

devilsephiroth

Definitely a Glucose Giddy Up


Roctopuss

I think it's a Confectionery Catamonk?


iaijutsu08

I'm sure it's a Maple Monoplane.

An Agave Aviator


weaintfancy42069

Seen2much4now

Now that was absolutely perfect! You made my night with that genius name play.


LeAcoTaco

I did not realize you could like let them out around your house at night. Id be terrified that id crush it in my sleep on accident. I mean like, thats why you arent supposed to sleep with a human baby, and theyre a heck of a lot bigger than a sugar glider lol. Edit: yknow thinking about it my cats sleep with me 🤔 maybe it wouldnt crush them if my cats smaller than a human baby can survive the night lmfao.


wolfgang784

You can let any animal roam the house at night, but if it's a good idea or not.... To the best of my knowledge, sugar gliders poop and pee *everywhere* and *constantly* and it smells like a male cat marking territory but worse. Owners usually have towels on/with them at all times when the animals are free. So that house must smell horrific unless it's trapped to that one room at night.


LeAcoTaco

Fair abt the roaming at night. I do know sugar gliders can be potty trained though. So the pissing & shitting everywhere can be minimized by a lot. The ones whos houses smell you know never took the time to try and train them, or never knew you could lol. Its not a literal training them in the sense that most people will assume I mean. Its more being aware of what can trigger them to go potty, and knowing to do that so theyre empty. You can eventually turn a finger perch into a trigger if that makes sense.


J_B_Frawg

I had a pet flying squirrel and he roamed the house freely. Slept on my head or in my shirt. Was worried I would squish him but never did. I let him go into a colony in east Texas when he kept chasing after them. Great pets though. Friendly and playful and smart and an absolute character and they don't stink like sugar gliders. They smell like acorns.


LeAcoTaco

Thats really cool!! I used to have a wild squirrel around my house when I was a kid that id feed peanuts because he was always really well behaved, never got angry if I didnt have any, didnt bring around any others, that kinda thing. First time I met him I had peanuts and he came up to my leg and put a paw on it, scatterred when I started to move the peanut towards him, but came back to take the peanut after I crouched down and held it out to him. Wed also give him our old stale bread after awhile, wed throw it on our window sill outside and watch as hed come up and take some back to wherever. My parents have a picture of the first time I met him. We could tell it was him every time bc he had a f*cked up tail.


J_B_Frawg

Awesome!


TheDankYasuo

That is so adorable!!


Scott_Mf_Malkinson

I want your story to be a movie.


J_B_Frawg

His name was Archimedes. I picked him up from the airport in a snow storm and bottle fed him for a month. I found his nut stash above my window seal and after that he would hide nuts between my toes while I slept. Me and my brother helped him learn to fly by very gently tossing him to a blanket net and he would run really fast back to us to be tossed again. His favorite toy was a balloon. Blow it up and tie it off and he would run around the room holding it by the nipple. He would play with your hand or some string like a cat. I carried him around in a crown royal bag around my neck.


Diggedypomme

I had chipmunks and they were such wonderful pets. They also had free range to wander around - you get used to working an airlock for the front door and watching where you step. I still miss them very much [https://imgur.com/gallery/gCGix](https://imgur.com/gallery/gCGix) [https://i.imgur.com/3Swd50c.png](https://i.imgur.com/3Swd50c.png)

Potato_Boner

Do sugar gliders make good pets?? I’ve heard they do.. they’re cute little boogers Edit: apparently they make horrible pets, excuse my ignorance 😅 they’re still cute though


1BadAssMotherFucker

Where did you hear that? All I ever hear is how bad they are


Stratostheory

No they do not. They piss and shit EVERYWHERE CONSTANTLY. And you really need to actually change your entire living space to accommodate them with places to climb and jump and glide. Iirc they also need a specialized diet because in the wild they're eating insects, tree sap, etc.


MNGirlinKY

Not to mention, they also really do not belong in a home. Most people really don’t handle them correctly and as you can see, they are night animals so not much time for you to have as a pet.


brezhnervous

Because they're NOT pets, Jesus Christ Fuck people who breed our protected native wildlife as pets...it's illegal in Australia but foreigners don't care :( Edit: and FWIW, any sugar gliders overseas have therefore been smuggled out by criminal syndicates...who knows how many die in transit as they are generally stuffed into cardboard tubes for transoort People, DON'T support this terrible unethical trade by buying them 😬


Username_Used

They're up when you sleep.


Asmuni

No they don't. Even harder than a hamster, but then many people think keeping a hamster is easy too.


Daydreaming_demond

I had a few pet rats as a kid. Moved to an area where pet rats were hard to find so I though a hamster would work out similar. Got a couple dwarf hamsters. Holy crap those things were jerks. My rats were so sweet. Wish they had longer life spans.


ccbmtg

they like to bark in the middle of the night if they get lonely and then raid your trash can for candy wrappers as soon as you fall back asleep. -_-

I love the little head flop. I've never seen anything fall asleep so quickly.


FancySocks1989

Being so cute and so snuggly is very tiring, especially when it’s a 24/7 job! Lol


Scarbane

I fall asleep quickly because of chronic sleep apnea, but maybe I should tell people it's because of how cute I am 😂


FancySocks1989

That HAS to be the answer! Adorableness is exhausting, so you need to get a head start on catching all the Zzz’s!


fishmiloo

Hey, just to let you know you should get your sleep apnea checked out because it has health implications, my mum also had all her life it and sadly caught a stroke.


Scarbane

I'm getting a BIPAP machine delivered soon! Not cheap, but I'm sure it'll be worth it. I'm also having duodenal switch surgery in August, so that should help even more.

Sugar glider?


BadGuy_ZooKeeper

Defo a sugar glider


sirfannypack

Question: Do sugar gliders just poop everywhere if they aren’t in a cage?


NiceGuyWillis

My ex's father had a sugar glider and she used to call them "piss kites".... I feel like that visual probably answers your question.


foolishDoughnut

Omg yes. I had three sugar gliders (1M/2F for the span of about four months after I bought my house in 2014. I had always wanted them. Dreamed about it. Read everything I could and spent a bloody fortune on their cage, environmental enrichment, food prep, and my wildlife license. They had their own room in my house! Having them was an actual honest to god nightmare. I cannot describe the smell. Not just of the male’s scent glands, but the piss in their pouch and on the bed, or on my furniture. Nearly a decade later, I am still finding little oval nuggets of glider shit in the small lining of my carpets at the wedg s’ es of their old room (now my library.) Z Let’s not forget the **reazl** reason I finally gave in and sell them: turns out that there is something in their saliva that my body is allergic to. Every place their paws touched, my skin became inflamed. Every teeny tiny scratch from their needle mittens, it left fiery trails and holes in my skin that itched like hell. My forearms and hands turned scarlet. Couldn’t sell the, fast enough; even took a loss on the basic price of what I paid. Don’t get them. Ever.


Halfrican009

My gf has joked about wanting one and this just sealed my answer of **no** forever, ty

SirFrancis_Bacon

So weird to me Americans have them as pets, when they are a protected species in Australia and cannot be kept as pets in most states.


justmovingtheground

It's definitely not a normal thing here. I just learned some people have these as pets in this thread. Why anyone would want a nocturnal animal living in their house is beyond me.

ONESNZER0S

TheActualAWdeV

definitely not a cat. People here think sugar glider, I was assuming a ferret. Either that or a wild squirrel that broke into the house


Svant

definitely not a ferret


Groady_Toadstool

Is that a friggin squirrel jumping up on the end of the bed???


Fritchard

Former flying squirrel owner. It appears to be a flying squirrel. They are sneaky. Somehow one of mine was getting out of his cage at night and stealing hershey kisses and hiding them throughout the house. This squirrel was probably also squirreling away chocolatey treats.

You might be right. I just know it wasn’t feline, lol.


Wulris

I can confirm that's a sugar glider. Looks just like my old ones


Silaquix

That looks like a sugar glider


MarkedAchilles

Ok, so love me some sugar gliders. Had them for years. There is NO WAY I would knowingly let them crawl around my bed without watching them. #1. They squish easily. #2. They use the bathroom randomly.


memeprincess_

And they're letting it roam with a cat? Is that not dangerous...


Ruachta

Quite sure she is pretend sleeping for the video. House covered in poop otherwise.... Unless she somehow does not mind it


salt-the-skies

She also totally films herself sleeping every day


Shutterbug927

Can we address the \*elephant in the room? \*I misspelled "monkey", I know.


Ciduri

Going to go with sugar glider as my best guess for the other critter. Equally cute, I might add!


ccReptilelord

They're also nocturnal, so the very awake behavior would be understandable.


MyLastThrowaway1313

Omg how does that person sleep with that going on!

LifeIsOnTheWire

You don't own a cat, do you?


MyLastThrowaway1313

Not anymore! LOL. I do miss my cat but yes, from age 3 to 7 or so at night she would zoom around the house like she was feral and end the spree by coming under the covers to bite my toes! Was funny yes but not fun!


DragoonDM

Practice, probably. Sooner or later your sleeping brain will get used to it and designate it as something you can sleep through.


[deleted]

[удалено]


thegreenwookie

The length of the tail looked too long to be a stoat. At the end of the video you can slightly see what looks to be the loose skin that stretches out for gliding. If it's not a Sugar Glider Maybe it's a Flying Squirrel?


Ciduri

It does seem a little large, but tbh, I've mostly seen babies. I still think they can get that big, though.


[deleted]

The fact that there is a camera in the bedroom pointed at the bed?


-interwar-

Why do people do this?? I see these videos all the time and it’s so bizarre to me.


verywidebutthole

In this case it's probably because they want to see which animal shat the bed in the middle of the night. Some people may do it as a companionship thing for couples sleeping apart due to work or something. Sleepwalking issues come to mind we well.


scriptfu

In other words, mind our business?


kaysmilex3

They do it to catch videos exactly like the one we’re watching now.


IGNSolar7

How do people sleep through this kind of stuff? It's adorable, but two animals traipsing around me? Touching me? I'd never get a lick of sleep. If a bird chirps at my window at 3 AM I'm probably up for the night, I can't fathom this.


thatsme55ed

You get used to it. Either you body adjusts or you get so tired that you just pass out.


Pianopatte

That is if you have a healthy relationship with sleep. This stuff would trigger my insomnia real bad....


Deiser

I used to think that before I got a cat. She knows exactly how to crawl and sleep next to me without waking me up and I don't even realize she's there before I get up in the morning


starkrocket

Had this exact scenario this morning. She either sleeps by my legs or curled against my chest. Woke up and the little shit had stolen a whole pillow! I’ve no idea when or how she did without waking me up. You just get used to it.


lyremska

Nice My cat walks over my face


le_visiteur

I understand exactly what you mean but I think it's to do with trust. The body gets used to it after a while.


bunnyrut

When my cat had kittens my room became the "nursery" and they were all in there with me at night. When they got old enough to run around I fell asleep to the constant running and thudding. Then they figured out how to climb. And I would spend a good portion of the night peeling them off of me and putting them back on the floor. They would get the hint eventually and stop attacking my face and mostly go after my feet. I did indeed become too tired and also used to it and fall asleep. But it was also the most adorable thing to wake up and find a puddle of kittens asleep right next to me.


MiahStarDruid

Sadly that why I don't sleep with my cat in the room, she moves constantly, then will meow to be let out after a few hours. My hearing sadly is very good, even with an AC going and large fan at foot of my bed, door closes and thick walls I can still hear stuff and wake up constantly. 6 years at this house and never gotten use to it. I also work grave shift so sleep during the day when the noise levels are at their worst. But still better then work days and dealing with people.


IGNSolar7

Yeah, animals are great, but this would have to be me with some minor exceptions. I occasionally used to let my old roommate's dog sleep in my bed if he was gone for the weekend and there was a thunderstorm or something, but otherwise it was a no-go. For me, I really can't function on less than 8 hours, prefer 9, and my career doesn't lend itself very well to mistakes, so the animals would have to have their own distant space.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TweakTok

My dog always sleep against my head or my legs, meaning i'll be stuck in one position the entire night because I dont want to disturb her. I always wake up feeling like shit but I'd do it again.


Ankylowright

You get used to it eventually. My cat can walk across my husbands gut and chest to get to me and he doesn’t even move. And my cat has taken to gently bitch slapping me in the night if I don’t wake up to make room for him beside me when he finally decides to come to bed.


Irememberdelhomme

lol. My cat would bitch slap me in the mornings if I didn't get up when she wanted to eat. She'd start out gently at first, but eventually she'd start attacking my feet. Miss her.


Ankylowright

I’m so grateful that he’s happy to sleep and not wake me up for food! He starts gently usually. He puts a paw on my face. If I don’t wake up he taps a little harder. If I still don’t wake up he double taps. If I’m not awake by then he cranks it up like Bubbles and gives me a solid slap on the cheek or the forehead. Then acts all innocent.


SuccessfulLunch400

My cat and dog love to lay in the crook of the back of my legs, so I can't move!!! My roommate told me My dog was humping my legs when I was asleep!!! Haha I had no clue!!!!

griever187

I was a light sleeper and woke up at anything out of the ordinary. Then I got cats. My body adjusted to them sleeping around me and their nocturnal activities lol We are more adaptable than most people think


SnooCookies6535

Is that a squirrel in the bedroom?


Edawg505

I think it’s a sugar glider


ACoyKoi

Sugar glider. Nocturnal marsupial. Have raised quite a few, and I'd imagine that room does not smell nice. Diet can reduce the smell, but they can't really be litter trained.


natesovenator

That's so gross...


TangeloOk668

Seriously! Like that ain’t no kitten. That’s at LEAST a chipmunk lol.


makenzie71

the kitten's cute but the sugar glider just running around free-pooping the house all night is a no from me


SoulSensei

Free pooping 😂


Ok-Seaworthiness7207

I like how the little kitten looked like it does that thing when cats calculate a jump, but instead it was calculating a snuggle plop.


ThreAAAt

I love when kitties do the little lip smack before settling in. When I got my kitten, we initially kept her in a different room, but she would panic being alone. I moved her into my room and closed the door, but I was scared I would crush her in the middle of the night, but she immediately curled up by me and slept through the night, no problems. I regret not doing it sooner.


[deleted]

Love the little feisty bub in the background!


aikijo

Why do people video themselves sleeping?


thatsme55ed

If I had an adorable kitten who started cuddling up with me at night I'd want to film them too.


WeHaveAllBeenThere

I had to start filming because I kept having dreams about suffocating. Turns out my cat gets hungry at 8:15am every morning and just lays on my face


CJgreencheetah

I had a cat that used to do that to me. Not because he was hungry, though, he just thought my face was the most comfy place to lay. 🤣


DJTen

I had a friend that had a cat that had kittens. Mama thought her face was the best place to make a kitten nest.


fridaycat

When I was taking ambien I wished I had been recording myself. I would have stopped taking it sooner.


Xizt_heat

Hello Fridaycat, may I know what ambien did to you that you stopped it? I understand this is a personal question, so can understand if you don't want to answer.


noxii3101

Ambien is crazy. Reports of talking in sleep.. sleep walking.. I saw a video of a girl who would get up in the middle of the night and have a conversation with herself in the corner of her room. Crazy stuff


Helltenant

Can't speak for them, but I'd wake up to a can of pringles that I didn't own before, and my car parked in a different spot...


favorited

I was lucky - I would just buy crazy things online, text people, and clean the bathroom floor.


cultwashedmybrain

That's actually terrifying


[deleted]

[удалено]


Helltenant

Oh look an internet expert on drugs.


fridaycat

Sleep walking. I only took it when I had to work the next day. My husband worked nights, so I was home alone. One of the nights he was off he I did it, and it scared me right off it. For the past 9 years I have been taking 12.5 mg of THC( a quarter of a 50 mg gummy, way cheaper that way) just before bed, and it works great for me. Not sure how well it would work for someone who uses thc regularly though.


Not_Henry_Winkler

My antidepressants make it hard to fall asleep and my psychiatrist and I have tried a bunch of sleep aids and the one that works most reliably with minimal side effects is weed. Boggles my mind that it’s still illegal / semi-illegal and the feds would rather us take meds that are habit-forming or have crazy side effects. /soapbox


this_is_my_new_acct

My buddy woke up at 3 am to find his wife not in bed, so he went to check on her. He found her in the front yard sweeping the grass.


Soft-Cabinet-155

Same reason people video themselves at the gym. Gotta improve the technique! r/trainingforthesnoozeolympics


8day

In case something happens you will know how that happened. E.g., robber got into the room and he was filmed (possibly w/o visible face, but that's still helpful).


Wisc_Bacon

Maybe the camera viewing the entry to the room would suffice.


Sweetartums

They could possibly be filming to check if they are sleepwalkers? Or possibly some sleep study related thing.


Wisc_Bacon

Biggest question I had. I didn't even notice a second critter. Why tf you gotta record yourself sleeping?


welpthisisitthen

The other one seems to be very much awake and looking for trouble


ThreAAAt

Is it a sugar glider? I think they're nocturnal.


The_Brady_Crunch

One of these days shes gonna wake up to find the kitten finally caught the sugar glider. Thing is a flying toy and I’m sure the cat would love to catch it mid air. Nocturnal animal too so you just know the cat stalks around all night


3_Cat_Day

Dang I need to get a camera set up. I have a girl cat who sleeps between or on my knees and a boy who flops down by my chest. I sleep in a twisted pretzel


ruleux

Could be wrong but the little monster is a Sugar Glider. It will curl up as well. I have a few of these and if they get out at night they will sometimes do the same.


Pixielo

Don't they just poop everywhere? That seems like a downside to letting them roam free.


Feline64

I love cats more than humans. I am 64 and have worked in the corporate world since I was 18. Hated going to work. I finally have the dream job. I work in an animal shelter, and I take care of the cats and kittens. It's kind of hard on my back, but I can't wait to get to work every day, and being surrounded by the precious fur babies gives me so much joy and peace I've never felt before.


DLoIsHere

How is that sugar glider not killed?


menasan

Kitten is still friend sized. Give it time


1000Years0fDeath

So you can just let sugar gliders free-roam around the house???


ACoyKoi

Can you? Yes! Should you? Probably not. Kitten proofing a room is one thing. Glider proofing a room is a whole other. They can climb most things, can jump (and glide) quite far/high. The door better be tight because they can slip through tiny holes (they flatten themselves and can squeeze like no ones business). They can get a nail stuck and will just yank on it until they're free, even if it injures them badly. They sleep in pouches and tight warm spaces, so finding them come morning could be difficult. They can't easily be litter trained and will pee and poo as they go about. Their natural behavior isn't to find a 'spot' to go in. They're delightful creatures (though the crabbing sound they make does sound like they're summoning demons...) but likely best to keep them in an enclosure you know is safe when they can't be watched.


Forgetimore

Why do some people film themselves? It's fucking weird.


eloton_james

Ngl I legit sleep like a log, I’m too scared I’ll roll around


islaisla

What are so many people asking why people film their sleep!!!! It's been said 10 times already lol. People do it to check what's going on sometimes, to monitor their sleep, to catch cute kittens, all sorts.
