As a provider of Alternative eduction provision we took a group of students to visit Spencer and their fur babies at Cuddly colony and we were blown away! I would like to first point out this is an educational and informative session not an opportunity to promote sugar gliders as pets, Spencer has rescued theirs and their mission is to provide information on the importance and technicalities of looking after sugar gliders properly, along side raising awareness and funding to support them in their natural habitat.
Our group of students were all SEN and Spencer catered to their needs amazingly, along with the astronomical amount of information Spencer provided them with.
Our students hugely enjoyed their time with not only the sugar gliders and Spencer but the environment that Spencer created for them and they all came away with newfound knowledge and love of sugar gliders.

My partner and I found the Cuddly Colony from seeing the amazing online reviews and wanted to check it out, even though we didn’t really know what to expect. All I can say is WOW, what an incredible and unexpected experience we had!

The couple who run the place are AMAZING. Genuinely lovely people who you can tell have so much love for their animals. The welfare of the sugar gliders is clearly at the absolute forefront of everything they do, and their passion and knowledge was evident through every aspect of our experience. They were incredibly generous with their time and energy and we couldn’t be more grateful. We loved hanging out with them!

The animals themselves are absolutely ADORBALE. Having not known much about them before arriving, they have now become one of our most favourite animals, and we cant wait to come back and bring friends and family with us.

Thank so, so much for an incredible experience guys. Anyone thinking of going get this booked now, I genuinely don’t believe there’s anything else like it anywhere ❤️

The most ethically run and hygienic place I have ever been to. My kids loved this experience and the professional but also safe respect for animals.

Absolutely fantastic experience, run by a couple who truly appreciate and care for the sugar gliders. Had a really interesting talk on sugar gliders, their habitat, behaviour and unique personalities and got to give them some love and have quality pouch time. Not to be missed!
