Be an honest salesman, now. Don't forget to mention that they're
nocturnal and they make horrendous noises and the males like to pee on
everything to mark it, even if "it" is you.

They are cute, though.

You're right, Alan -- The males do both pee and use scent glands to mark, but the females don't (And both these joeys are females). Also, when they are upset they will make a "horrendous" noise, but so do most animals -- it's a defense mechanism. They will "grobble" when they think there's something threatening around. But if you hear their noise and leave them alone they quiet right down. These joeys are actually very quiet -- It's their mom who makes all the noise!

They are nocturnal... which makes them a bad pet for kids. Their food is also a real pain to make. (And yes, I said make -- you can't buy it...) They require a lot of TLC, but they are also awesome pets. They're very smart and playful. Like I said, I'll try and get a website up tonight.
