Their teeth are very sharp but very tiny. Your finger will bleed a little btu band-aids wil do. If she begins to ball up, relax, she'll realize she can't kill you ans relax. Just be patient and gentle, don't freak out and drop her. Give her time and space. Good Luck!

:I have previosly owned a Ball and a Burmese but neither of the two ever so much as struck at me.. But my newest Ball has the temper of a Tiger, She strikes at nearly anything that moves near her.. I've only had her about a week now, is the problem that she just hasn't adjusted to her new home or owner yet.. Also I'm not afraid of being tagged, but just so I know how bad is it... She's about 3'.. Any hints on calming her down other than continuous handling..
