Thanks for the quick replies and link..
No way of videoing it sorry..
I've watched the video in the link and no its not like that, more of a slight twitch in her body.
She is just 2 years old,had a previous owner but was then returned to the pet shop. Not too sure how long she was back in there. But obviously just needs to get used to being handled at regular intervals again.
