I'm not a fan of those rubber bands either. If they would cover them with cloth or something that would be better on pleo's skin. Anyway if you still want to use it, this is how I get mine on- in the rare occasion that I use it. Make sure your pleo is in the off packing position. Slide the bit that goes over the tail on first. Then you get your fingers through one of the bottom bands that go on one of the rear legs and ease it over the pleo's foot and move it upward to about the anckle- maybe the knee if it turns out to be too tight. I don't ever use both bands on the legs because it tends to make the motors cluch. It's easier to put them on one set of legs at a time. When you've got all four legs done, gently grab the bit that goes over the pleo's neck and pull it toward her head. This will get out any wrinkles that will make it harder to fasten that wimpy velcroe piece that closes under the pleo's neck. After all that, make sure the bands on the legs aren't twisted or too tight to allow movement. When you're satisfied, hit the on-button and have fun.
