Nope...

First off you can't rush into handling...you need to start off slow...do not FORCE anything.

If it is exhibiting any sign of not wanting to be handled...hissing...tail lashing...then you leave it alone.

Start with baby steps in the approach...

Really isn't a difficult concept to wrap your head around...
