Trembling can be a sign of a number of things including fear (if she is doing it before being handled), being too hot or cold, or feeling pain or illness. Making sure the area she is in is cool, but draft free may help. If she is trembling before you pick her up, it may be that she is scared and stops trembling when held because she is being held tightly or is too scared to move in your hands. Slowing down how often you handle her, and offering treats before you do may help. If she is trembling all the time, or showing other signs of illness such as listless behavior, not eating or drinking, not interested in activities, etc, then it may indicate pain or illness and should be checked out in person by a vet.
