I was asked about harnesses, but I have no experience with squirrels and harnesses, so would like to ask for the collective wisdom/experience.

Has anyone used a harness for an eastern grey with success? Success meaning: it didn't slip, or the sq didn't get out of it/didn't get it off, it didn't pinch the sq and so on?
Would you be able to recommend certain brands, and/or certain types, and or what to look for when buying, and how to adjust if necessary?

Any and all tips and info will be greatly appreciated!!!:grouphug

A member, squirrely joe, has used harnesses on a number of squirrels. I think she makes them herself. You could send her a pm and inquire about it.

The only kind I have ever seen that work are those like a full vest. the ones with only straps never work - a squirrel will find some way to wiggle out of it and risks getting tangled in it also.

This is the vest kind I mean:
