Oh what fun.

Babies had to go get their boosters, fun and games getting them in the carriers. As soon as Buddy saw his he started growling and hissing at Mary, she decided she wasn't going in hers, so legs akimbo and wriggling she made a mad rush to get away, picked her up again and finally got her into the box, only for her to "break out" and another struggle to get her in, but eventually got her in.
Next was grumpy boy. With him growling/hissing and legs going in all directions the little sod tried his hardest not to go in his box, so grabbing his back feet together, like a rabbit, managed to get him in, with him still growling.
Late getting to vet's but despite that they were fine, apart from Buddy grumbling all the way. Mary is apparently overweight (4.7) but no real concerns.
The vet asked how Buddy's tail was and she said "I was hoping it would heal", erm no she wasn't she wanted him to loose it. She now does as I tell her, because I can and will take my cats to another vet if she steps out of line again.

Hahaha, oh the carrier fun! They can be such pests!

Element of surprise with my two, we don't let thm see the carriers, then pick them up as though they're getting a cuddle, keep their eyes diverted them all of a sudden, drop them in, works everytime.

Nice trick Kath Merlin is pretty laid back about his carrier and just walks in Obviously hasn't had any bad experiences at the vets yet

But previous cats.....oh gosh no...getting them into a carrier WAS a nightmare Always seemed to involve much swearing, hissing and blood (mine!)
