Do you live somewhere sugar gliders are legal? Maybe your mom would be ok with one of them. There are a bunch of websites providing information on required care. You could gather facts on them and present your case. Personally, I think sugar gliders are cute.
When I said chinchillas are the closest domesticated animal in the US to squirrels, I had forgotten about sugar-gliders which kinda resemble mini flying squirrels. I don't know much about sugar-gliders thou. I only seen one at a local pet store & I only seen it there 1ce which is probably why I forgot about em when I made that post.
