ronnies due for his vet visit

CathyW · 08-04-2008, 08:47 PM

hes due for a check up on his eye 2morow. although its looking alot better, its still a darker color than the other eye.
but i know its nothing nasty as hes not acting weird, and hes eating n drinking as normal.
just going to have fun getting him in the cat carrier, and getting him outs also fun, we have to pour him out LOL

Do so hope all goes well boys mum. Give ronnie some calming words from Merlin, who's a very good boy at the vet - it's the car he's not keen on!

Getting them in is a real problem! I hide mine behind the door up-ended, then grab the cat right after breakfast and pop him/her in before they realize what's happening. And I let the vet worry about extracting him/her...

I hope all goes well at the visit for him!!

Hope all goes well at the vets. Keep us posted. Big hugs to Ronnie

i leave the carrier open in the hallway, and reggie promptly climbs in and has a sleep in it LOL
ronnie manages to splay all 4 legs out and puts up a struggle, but once hes in there hes fine. falls asleep in the car, its reggie whos vocal.
oh well hoping 2morows the last one.

Many well wishes for Ronnie tomorrow. I hope he's given the all clear!

Mine are OK to get into the carrier . . . just have to shake basket vigorously at the vet to get them out

Except Ferdy who did the 4-legs-splayed trick. And then tried to eat his way out

Oh, that reminds me of something I haven't thought of in years! When I got my first cat as an adult, I didn't have a proper cat carrier. So I used an old wicker picnic basket....anyone remember those? Su-Ling the Siamese was OK going to the vet, although he bellowed as only an angry Siamese can; but coming home he decided enough was enough, and proceeded to try to tear his way out...we got home just in time: he had a hole big enough to get his head out and one paw!!!

Yes, my baskets are wicker. The smaller basket still bears the scars of the bruiser boy.

I hasten to add, this was the 1st ever time I put him into the carrier. He has a bad head wound and was still entire

hence his agression/fear. Once he'd been done he would slink in without a murmur

just got the basket out n ronnie spotted it, he was off over them fences like a shot. ive just spent 10 mins rattling a can. he eventully turned up. hes now in the carrier moaning the best was a ronnie can.
