You or the other person with you may have to gently guide his head down into the carrier, then quickly shut the door ......and hey presto, he's ready to go!

I always use this method with Cassie as no way will she go in head first... He will object at first like most cats do but he will soon settle....
Head first was the only way I could get Sultan in !! Feet first and he'd manage to leap out before I could get it shut ....

Re: Patch is being neutered :)


Hehe they all have their ways don't they

Jane, he isn't going to be pleased and he will complain and act like he hates you but he will get over it and so will you

You are doing the best possible thing for him you can and he will be much better for it, so please, keep telling yourself that as you go through it all

Good luck tomorrow *hugs*

Re: Patch is being neutered :)


Thanks guys!

Well, my baby is gone for the night Was really easy to get into his carry cage - put it on the floor, was plaiyng with him/feeding him treats...offered him a treat, he sniffed it, I threw it into the carry cage..he ran in, his bum was sticking out so I just pushed it in and closed the door behind him, so all went well there

Apparently she will pick him up from the vet about 3pm tomorrow so he should be home about 3:30pmish.

Gunna be so weird without him :S Hope everything goes okay
