Do they have a lot of health issues?

Not that I’m aware of.

So they’re pretty hardy?

What do you mean by ‘hardy’? You can’t just leave them outside and forget about them. They’re from Madagascar, so they can’t handle extreme cold or heat. You’ll need to do a lot more research. There are Facebook groups and YouTube videos to help. Maybe a lemur isn’t the right pet for you.

@Hartley
I meant hardy in terms of not having health issues. I know they can’t live in extreme temperatures.

You shouldn’t get one.
