jumpy is almost 2 now and still trying to tame him. she gives a big fight getting out of the cage tail wips and sometimes nips but not hard after she is out, shes clam unless I put her down some where and then runs.
My first qustion is how can I get her to stop throwing a fit geting out of the cage and next is how can I get her to not want to run just to chill like on my shorders and be a good little girl.

just talk to her and pet her while she is in the cage to calm her down. then you can:
a) reach in and gently take her out or
b)open the cage door and wait till she comes out...
then, just hold her for 10-15 minutes without putting her down and then put her back. then wait a little bit and try it again. try giving her treats while she is out and eventually she should get used to it.
hope this helps
