Single layers are great for those sugar gliders and other small animals that
like to dig into pouches to get in between the layers of their pouch. The edges
are boxed and sides are fringed. These pouches are great for warmer
weather!
This pouch is sewn with many safety features including:
- New Contrast Thread design: Thread color is a highly contrasted
color (caution
orange).
- Solid Color Pouch: No print to distract owners from viewing possible
loose threads or stretched seams from normal wear.
- Reinforced box corners to help prevent digging. (Is your sugar glider a
digger/chewer?
Purchase a nesting blanket separately to lengthen cage pouch life.)
- Tight machine stitching to for durability and safety.
- Reverse inside seams

Fabric: Fleece
Style: One Layer with Fringe design (Fringe design helps protect sugar
gliders from exposed seam)

clips available at additional cost, order below)
Q: Is a single layer cage pouch safe for sugar gliders?
A: It is as safe as any fleece toy or pouch if the pouch is made
correctly. The "exposed" seam is hidden with fringe along the outside of the
pouch leaving the inside pouch area the same as a double layer pouch (reversed
seams inside). Along with the tight machine stitching and contrast thread
feature of this pouch, it can actually be safer than many double layered
pouches. Digging, nesting, or chewing sugar gliders often attempt to get between
the layers of multiple layer pouches leaving them in danger of being in contact
with loose threads and/or loose seams. A single layer pouch actually prevents
this behavior with most sugar gliders. I have been using these pouches
exclusively with my sugar gliders for years with complete satisfaction. The
design we use is safe and tested, not only by us, but by 100's of sugar gliders
and their owners.
For the safety of your animals, check cage toys and sleeping accessories daily for wear.
