So, Im meditating at around 4:30am, (Im a bit nocturnal lately) and I start hearing these strange wailing noises and swinging and scratching noises really close to me. I ignore them at first, and continue to meditate, but eventualy the noises get a bit too strange for me, and after I finish meditating I look around the room to inspect the matter more closely. I dont hear anything for a while and go to grab some herbal supplements off of my book shelf and a fuzzy creature jumps on my arm and runs up to my shoulder. After the initial shock, I realize that it is a sugar glider, (a nocturnal marsupial from australia) that is my brothers pet that had been missing for 3 days. It lives in basically a different house, and how it got from there to here is a bit of a mystery. I fed it and gave it water and wathced over it for a couple of hours. I have only seen the thing a few times previously, and I must admit it was nice to have some company.
