Rockwald Dizzi Chamberlain, Sugar Glider

Dizzi, a.k.a Rocky, was formerly owned by an Austinite named Anna. Anna became ill and needed Rocky to live somehwere else for a while and Theresa volunteered.

Dizzi is a male and, after a few days, has gotten along with Vicki fabulously. There was hanky panky going on and we have ended up with babies. Theresa's not opposed to this because she knows lots of people that would like to have one but probably will never spend the $200 on them.

After hearing the gliders in the kitchen I went to investigate. The noise was coming from on top of the fridge. This is where we put the goodies out of the reach of the children. Hmm, why is the bag of frosted animal crackers moving? You should have seen Dizzi look up as if to say "Yes, can I help you?" BTW, they were not ashamed of themselves at all, they continued to eat. I'm sure this is not on their dietary list so we'll have to find another place for the animal crackers.

During a trip to Linda's the kids made birdhouses and painted them. This birdhouse has never been outside but it sits in our family room on top of the mantle. Vicki and Dizzi occasionally climb in. This time it's Dizzi, and he's sticking his head out. There's only one hole in this birdhouse and you're looking at it. If they don't want to come out, there's nothing we can do but wait.

Peek-a-boo... More cuteness inside the tissue-box.

Dizzi fell asleep in Theresa's hand... Isn't he cute?

This isn't a well-taken picture but it's a rare catch. Dizzi was just learning our living room and jumped from the curtain rod to the speaker, but he slid off and went to "gliding mode".

Dizzi's first picture by us. He moves so quick it's hard to get a decent picture of him. This is him running away from me on the couch.

I think Dizzi is happy for Vicki to be away from the joeys once in a while. He's already looking a little anxious to be alone with her.
