They never really like it, but they do get used to it somewhat, and don't freak out like one that has never had it's head restrained. When I pick up mine whether it is to hold it for a while or just move it, I always touch their head or grasp it gently for a second or two. You never know when you might end up having to treat a mouth problem or tube something down one. The more they are handled everywhere on their body, the less of a war it becomes later......imo.....
