How to make a Bonding Pouch. This is a step by step DIY tutorial on how to make a bonding pouch with a zipper for sugar gliders, hedgehogs, chinchillas, rats and even ferrets.

This bonding pouch can be made in lots of sizes. I have included the measurements for two different sizes below,. I have also included the link to my video showing how to to a ladder stitch also know as a blind stitch. To keep any threads for being exposed on the inside of your pouch, I recommend sewing the inside opening closed by hand using the ladder stitch.
