Meet Sunny, Maple & Poppy the Squirrel Gliders
Sweet. Cheeky. Always After the Nectar.
Status: It’s complicated. There are three of us.
Likes: Sweet nectar, late-night snacks, cosy hideaways, and causing mischief as a team.
Dislikes: Empty nectar bowls, early bedtimes, and being mistaken for sugar gliders.
About us: Hey, we’re Sunny, Maple and Poppy — three cheeky squirrel gliders with a sweet tooth and a serious love of nectar.
We might be small, but together we’re a whole lot of personality. Whether we’re climbing, exploring, snuggling up or racing over for our favourite treats, there’s rarely a dull moment when the three of us are around.
As squirrel gliders, we’re native Australian marsupials built for life among the trees. In the wild, our species relies on connected forests and tree hollows for food, shelter and safe places to call home — making habitat loss and fragmentation a serious threat.
That’s why we’ve joined Lonely Fans. We may already have each other, but there’s always room in our little glider squad for you.
For just $10/month, you can become one of Sunny, Maple & Poppy’s Lonely Fans and help support:
🍯 Specialised diets and plenty of our favourite nectar
🌿 Enrichment to keep us climbing, exploring and causing the right kind of trouble
🏡 Habitat care and improvements
🩺 Ongoing veterinary care and wellbeing
In return, you’ll get:
💌 A digital fan certificate welcoming you to the trio
📸 Monthly updates, adorable photos and behind-the-scenes glider antics
💚 The warm, fuzzy feeling of supporting three very small marsupials with very big personalities
Three gliders. Triple the cheek. One very sweet fan club.

Lonely Fans: Sponsor a Wild Soul
At Byron Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, we care for animals who’ve been displaced, injured, or orphaned due to habitat destruction, extreme weather, or human activity. These incredible animals are no longer just wildlife – they’re wild souls in need of support.
Through Lonely Fans, we’re inviting animal lovers (yes, you!) to connect with our residents in a new way: as fans.
Each animal has their own Lonely Fan profile, a personality-filled bio, and a real story. From Arni the koala to Pepita the parrot, your sponsorship makes a real difference in their daily lives – from food to vet care to long-term sanctuary upgrades.
Why This Matters:
Rising costs of care, rehabilitation, and habitat restoration are stretching wildlife centres thin.
Your recurring donation helps us provide consistent care and long-term planning.
This isn’t charity fluff. This is real, tangible help – dressed up with a bit of humor and heart to reach more people who can make a difference.
💛 Ways You Can Help:
Sponsor an animal for as little as $10/month
Share your Lonely Fan’s story on socials to help raise awareness
Gift a sponsorship to a friend who loves animals.
Become a Lonely Fan today. Because no one should be this wild and alone.
