I've picked them up and they tend to not care, I guess because I wasn't actively trying to squish it in my hands? If they all can spray they are extremely chill.

From what I understand most can't spray, except in the west of North America, where the most common ones can. Even here it's not all of them, and yeah, they are pretty chill. They don't spray when they're confused, just when they think something is about to eat them. Dogs are pretty famous for investigating things by shoving their faces into them though.
