I didn't think about that. His momma's pouch lining is a whole lot thicker than any material that I have chosen for a pouch. Thanks for the insight!

: : : I really want to carry my "Bicho" with me more often. He was not very tame when I rescued him. But he has never bitten me as his former owners say that he did with them. I read that several people use Crown Royal bags or other similar "pouches". I am always so worried that he won't be getting enough air to breath. I guess I am relating it to my own experience of not being able to sleep with even as little as a sheet over my face without feeling like I'm suffocating. Sooooooo...is it necessary to have a pouch with neting or airholes of some sort or am I just over-worried? He doesn't like pockets either.

: Tanya, I worried about that at first, too... but then think: he was in his mother's pouch for a couple of months with little oxygen. When mine is comfortable in his pouch I can open the top and he just stays there... maybe this will help your piece of mind also. Good luck!
