I have a couple of suggestions...see if you can get him to walk onto a stick. (You don't want to pull him off the branch because you could injure his joints or even break his toes.) If he will transfer to the stick you can simply leave the stick in his new cage and take it out when he's off it.



If he's too grumpy to do that...try wearing a sweatshirt with long sleeves in addition to gloves...and make sure that you use those thick work-type gloves because he might be able to bite you through a normal pair of (winter-type) gloves. If he bites the sweatshirt, usually he will only get the shirt and you will be safe inside it.



Hope this helps!
