Throughout the life of any cat, it will be necessary to take it to the vet at times, not only for an annual check-up, but also when the animal is sick. There are many people who do not take it to the professional because there is no way to put the furry in the carrier, but it is very important that, if we have to go, let's try to get him into it.
So, I'm going to explain to you how to take a cat to the vet.
The first thing you should know is that the state of mind that the human has, can be felt by the cat. Why am I telling you this? Because most of the time the furry will not want to enter the carrier because, at some point, the human got stressed, he even had a little anxiety, just thinking that he had to take him to see the professional and that that would be a very difficult task because the feline would scratch or bite him. Voucher. Calm. It is normal to feel a little nervous, but that is not an excuse for us to delay the visit to the vet.
What we cannot do either is force it in, because doing so will associate the carrier with something negative, and of course it will avoid it at all costs. To prevent that from happening, you need to go through a period of adaptation, in which the carrier will be left with the door open, a blanket and a couple of cat treats. Thus, it will end up using it as a lair. But we still have to do something else.
Now we will have to get used to the car, taking him with the carrier for very, very short walks -of 10 minutes-, and give him treats for cats so that he associates the car with them. And finally, It will be necessary to make it adapt to the clinic, where we will give you some treats for felines that you really love.
