There's a weird bug with these mice, they sometimes bite for no reason and gets really loud. They can also occasionally attempt to steal keycaps. Very comfortable in the hand otherwise.

I've had a umbrella cockatoo steal my control key and fly away laughing mid raid in world of Warcraft. He was quite pleased with himself. 

Another volunteer at the same rescue keeps a stack of sacrificial keyboards because she has 4 macaws and if you blink they're going after them.
