My vet only allows cats in crates, my cat hates it.  I wish you luck with this :)

Some cats take to them fine and some never do, ime 

One old man cat we had was so chill we walked him along the beach in the wet sand with little waves rolling up. I think having a dog to walk with him helped with that, gave him a buddy to demonstrate how to act normally on a leash.

That 1000 yard stare. :D

Have you tried giving her treats while she wears that thing? Or immediately after taking it off at least. Maybe help her to accept that it's not a forever thing.

Mine hates her harness with a passion too but she knows that it's the only way I'll take her outside if she really has to go outside beyond the hallway. It also follows us to the vets but since she's now on their Angry Kitty list, we are usually allowed to go directly into an empty room where I can take her out of the carrier and calm her down prior to a vet appearing without having to harness her.

She’s too pretty to go out on her own...someone would steal her

I was afraid for a long time to just let her out, so we got her a harness and took her out a bunch. She would escape sometimes from when we'd open the door so we finally just let her go and she always comes back.

I don’t live in an area like that...it would be really bad

I didn't think we (I really need to start saying I now) did either because I grew up in a lot less populated area then here. All of our cats from growing up just did whenever they wanted and came and went as they pleased.

That’s how she always looks in the house...I only get the slits when she sits near the sliding glass door

I only get the slits then too.  It's because they perceive freedom is near.
