My female is extremely aggressive when in her cage. It's not just one part of her cage but the whole thing(it's four levels and pretty huge). She has already attacked my male when he went to investigate the cage (posted in infirmary) and whenever I or someone else tries to get her to come out she lashes out with her front paws and makes angry grunts. I need to find a way to calm her down since I have small children come over sometimes and I don't want her to hurt them. So far she has been fine outside of her cage and will sit and cuddle and let you hold her no problem. It's the getting her out of the cage that is the issue. We have been using gloves on our hands to avoid mangled fingers but I feel like I'm forcing her to come out to enjoy the backyard as opposed to having her come to the cage opening to be let out. Treats don't work since I have tried everything from dried fruit to fresh veggies/herbs to hay. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
