The difference with dogs is you open the carrier and they trot in! They are so naive. My dad solved the issue of not being able to get the cat in the carrier: He took a shopping bag and opened it on the floor. As all cats do, ours walked into the bag to explore. My dad closed the bag with clothespins and off to the vet we went. He did poke holes in it so the cat could breathe! The vet thought it was great, the cat was contained and the bag was disposable!

They just sit there on the vets table, wide-eyed and frozen in place. If the vet wants to move them he has to slide them along the table. They don't even move when they get they're temperature taken (which is somewhat amazing if you know where that thermometer goes). I can more relate to your story with my dog and trying to get him to the vet. It got so bad I actually have to drug him before I take him or I physically cannot handle him. Hope your DH and kids survive the trip! :-) I am extremely lucky that my two cats are so paralyzed with fear about going to the vet it well…paralyzes them!

I had a good laugh picturing the whole thing. My one cats yowls so loudly you'd think you were killing her. One year the fed ex man showed up just as I was leaving and he looked inside my jeep and I am sure he thought I was torturing the poor thing. May the cat gods smile upon you and keep you safe this year!! and buy a BIG lock. Thanks for sharing your adventures with the cats. I had a good laugh picturing the whole thing.
