Nail-O-Matic Comes Pre Installed!

Can we talk? What’s the WORST thing about being owned by sugar gliders?  From the countless numbers of people we’ve spoken to over the years, I think most would agree that those sharp little nails can be a bit rough on human skin!  How many of you have had the red spots and scratches to prove it?  Are you ready to get rid of that problem?  Once and for all?

At long last, and after many prototypes, we are pleased to present Nail-O-Matic™.  Nail-O-Matic is a running track insert that files your glider’s nails automatically as they run in a Wodent Wheel.

If you are having problems clipping nails or are just putting up with the scratches, you should get your suggies a SunCoast exclusive Nail-O-Matic nail filing track.  Why suffer through the process of nail trimming or pay mega-bucks to your vet for trimming if you don’t have to?  The Nail-O-Matic is easy to use!  Just slide it into your Wodent Wheel and watch your gliders have loads of fun as they Zoom ‘N Groom their nails.

This Nail-O-Matic is custom designed to fit right into the Wodent Wheel Senior, which includes a wall-to-wall plastic inner track that seats into the wheel covers and completely covers the axle.  The shield  eliminates the need to inspect the axle for the stickiness that can lead to tail-axle injuries, because the glider’s tail cannot reach the axle of the wheel.

This product has been independently tested by members of the glider community prior to release.  

Another lesser known problem of sugar glider nails getting too long is the injuries they can cause.  Gliders can easily get hung up on many of the products sold for sugar gliders today.  It is vitally important that you keep your gliders’ nails well groomed not only for your own enjoyment, but for their own safety as well!

Would you like to keep your glider’s nails well groomed without the emotional or physical pain for the gliders or us humans?  Let’s face it, most gliders don’t like to have their nails trimmed and most humans don’t like to trim glider nails.  Trimming is a tricky proposition.  If you go too short you risk hitting the quick and causing the glider to bleed.  Also, too short nails can inhibit a glider’s ability to hold on to your clothing or toys.  

For nearly two years now we have tried a plethora of devices and gadgets to perform this not-so-fun grooming task.  We tried concrete and sandpaper perches like the ones used for birds.  We tried mounting these perches vertically, like a fireman’s pole to see if that would cause more traction and groom those pointy little nail tips down.  We put favorite treats in strategic places on the “fireman’s pole” to encourage lots of climbing, all with disappointing results.  We even removed other branches and perches from the habitat thinking the gliders would be forced to climb the fireman’s pole.  But it just didn’t happen that way.
