harness/leash?

Are these at all acceptable or accepted by the hedgies if they are safe? My sons are concerned about our wheel not arriving yet, but I can't believe a hedgie could use a leash or harness. My oldest said that he thought the class pet at school had a leash. Wouldn't it be tough w/ the quills and getting it on??? My hunch is that the wheel wil be here soon and this will be a mute point. But, I said I'd ask, so please advise. I can't see walking the hedgie like our dog, but I deger to you experts!

Thanks,
Dana

yeah, its me :) Cloud has a harness and a collar. the collar is used ONLY when he is roaming around outside off the leash, because it has his tag on it, but i;d never use it to restrain him.
i use an iguana leash/bunny leash for Cloud. it's made out of rope and you can get it on pretty tight without hurting him. I have a picture of him on the leash, i'll post it in a bit, but here is the type of leash i use for him and my rats. its less bulky than a harness, and a lot easier to get on. he's never wiggled out of it. it's made by four paws.
