My cat does not like being picked up bites and claws and will rip into you. I need to get her into a carrier for a vet visit. She is sick and still putting up a big fight. She has taken a chunk out of my hand already and I would like to see them put a cat like her into a carrier. Most people looing for tips are not looking for tips on how to put calm cat into the carrier.

You definitely paid all these cats for the stunts🥱

Even cats who HATE their carriers at home will be more than happy to jump back into it once they are at the vet's. It becomes a safe space for them where the vet can't reach them.

I think the most useful information here when dealing with a non docile cat is to have the carrier all year round near their fave places and getting them used to it.

You both are the sweetest instructors ever ❤

My cat's got to go to the vet today, and he always knows what's up. It's always a challenge to get him into the carrier without getting my face ripped off!

This is not made for 99% of the cat population. Very unrealistic!

How you approach the animal is a big one too. When we are worried our behavior becomes odd and the cat sees that something is wrong and goes into mental mode. My mum struggles to put the flea treatment on the cat because she grabs her and expects her to run. My mum would say "You've got to be quick because she can smell it as soon as you open it" I usually stroke her, open the flea treatment, I'll even show it to her, then i'll stroke the neck, calmly put on the treatment. She might pull a face saying "fuck, that's cold, what is that? what have you done?" but because she loves being stroked, she'll forget instantly and continue to enjoy strokes. The only difference between chaos and a pleasant experience is how we feel. Saying that, I've got to put a sick cat in a carrier today, having not done it before and I am pretty apprehensive. Hopefully I won't eat my words later.

Excellent! Following this guide made putting my tabby in the carrier as easy as 1-2-3. The little details on carrier placement and how to grab the cat made all the difference. Thanks for posting this video guide online!

I pulled up your video for a refresher course! Thank you!

AWWWW! All the kitties are SO adorable!!! I love them all! Our kitty SCREAMS, she's so afraid of the vet. She came to us feral and had rotten teeth, which had to be removed, she had a tail bite which was badly infected, a nasty dig on top of one of her paws. She had to stay in kitty hospital for days. They fixed all her wounds and removed the broken teeth and when my husband picked her up, she was like new! She kept meowing and was so happy to be home. She ate and drank and must've felt like a million being all fixed up. We now have to take her for her annual shots because she and in/out door cat. We live on a dead end street and have our own place but being she goes out, she must have Revolution and around five or six annual vaccines. A check up too. She fights and tries to back out of my holding her. She tries to hold onto the sides of the carrier and I cannot push down, I don't want to hurt her claws. If I release my grip on her, I'm done so it's now or never kind of thing! Please, any advice will be much appreciated. We love her dearly and don't want to add any undue stress. Thank you!

Catwoman12nc, that is EXACTLY my problem. Once their claws hook onto the sides, you cannot push down, I'm afraid of hurting her. The paws must be lifted UP and then in, yeah, try this while holding a struggling cat! I know you know how it feels! Good luck to you!

This is my favourite video. Every time I have to take my older cat to the vet I use either the face forward or backwards methods and it works surprisingly well even for my boy who isn’t docile. I’ve used it for a couple years now! Today I’m watching it again because I’m taking him again.

I used to have this problem, but now my cat is dead on easy to get into their carrier. Here's how I did it below: The first thing you want to do is make sure you have a carrier that is actually large enough for the cat to walk inside on their own. To my horror, I realized I was using a cat carrier designed for a pet that weights no more than 8 lbs to carry a 19 lb cat. Once I corrected this problem (I'm currently using one designed for a 25lb pet), the rest became elementary. When you first buy the carrier, you need to desensitize him or her to the cage. I did this by putting her treats inside the cage, and let her crawl in on her own to eat them. You can do this with their food a well. Use a cat's food motivations to get what you want. After you do this for a few days, you are now ready to begin getting your cat ready to take to the vet. When it's time, you can either place treats, or their favorite food, inside their cage and let them do all the work for you. After they go inside, just calmly close the door and you're done! Many thanks to Jackson Galaxy, and My Cat From Hell, who I learned this trick from.

These cats are way to docile. Cats like mine don't like to be picked up. I got her from a shelter a year ago. She loves to sit with me & lets me rub her belly & even sleeps in my bed but picking her up makes her go insane! I bought the Feliway plug ins & will spray her carrier w/ the spray Feliway. Still so nervous cuz there are just too many ways for this to go wrong. Wish me luck!

Hi, I really appreciate this, especially the idea of keeping the carrier out in plain sight. But as previously mentioned, my cat, Mr. Seamus, is very scrappy when being handled. He's even lost his bowels while being restrained. I'm bringing him to the vet this morning, I'll have to use the towel method, but I think I'll invest in a top-loading carrier thanks to seeing this. I must say, you've got a couple very cooperative kitties there! Thanks very much!

I have feral and semiferals needing to be relocated..couldn't get them back into the trap ..I use thick leather fabric gloves up my arm ..for when they scratch n bite can't bite through them.. and also just put a towel entirely around them.. to get that cat into the cage..It's a high Drama deal..I put the carrier by them and keep saying good boy good girl. And many times they go in by themselves..no fight..

As long as you show the cat respect and LOTS of love, give a treat and ALWAYS say, good boy/girl, keep repeating that and say it in a loving way. They will get the message that you're not really trying to hurt them. Our cat doesn't hate us after we bring her back home after her annual vet visit. She sits on the deck and meows alot but will allow us to pet her and she still shows love. She's shaken up but after an hour, she has a meal and settles down for a nap. After that she's fine. She/he will not hate you. Please, just give extra love and respect for the cat's feelings.

A carrier is also a great way to introduce cats or kittens to each other - putting one inside and one outside allows them to meet and greet safely and gives each time to adjust to each other :-)

I love my soft side carrier. My girl doesn’t even need a cover. She has he carrier out all the time and goes in willingly rides great.

What a beautiful cat

Very good presentation!! 😊👍❤️

Thank you so much ❤

Yeah quick and sneaky is the best way to approach our cats. I have never had one who was happy with going into any carrier. The top open are our and our vet's carrier of choice I prefer the Petmate 2 Door Top Load Carrier as the top latch is very secure when carrying and it comes in 2 sizes.

I talk and sing to my cat, after he almost angrily destroyed the carrier on our way to the vet. And he calmed down. (Nope, I don't sound like Celine Dion. 😄) Letting them hear your voice comforts them.

Interesting.. I do like the carrier with the "gate" on top. That would be easier for me to take out my cats. (I don't have cats now; have had cats for some 35 years.) All my cats liked to see where they are going and I am surprised to see to cover the carrier with a blanket since mine liked to look out. And at the vet, it was hard to get them out but so much easier for them to get back in the carriers. LOL They felt safe inside the carriers. Thanks for the tips.

Yay! Finally I feel prepared to place my kittahs into their carriers!

Ollie was no problem, but I couldn't even catch Pip! He was so suspicious! It turned into a chase, and I ended up having to leave Pip home and just take Ollie. I've rescheduled for Friday, but I don't know how I'll handle this. It was very traumatic for Pip. We've since made up, but I don't know what I'll do. Any suggestions?

Oh! I fell in love...

i have a cat that is about 2yro. I have tried twice to get her into a carrier to take her to a vet - and the response i got broke my heart. She became very feral. She did an awful screeching/howling noise i had never heard her make before. and she kept trying to force herself through any opening she could. she was chewing on the metal door.. she even forced 1 of her paws between plastic for the top and bottom on one occasion. i finally let her out and havent tried to force it again. I bought a house and she is my biggest concern. She freaks out when new things or people come into my home. I have no idea how im going to get her out of the apartment. I am hoping melatonin will help some :(

I swear my cat grows extra legs when he sees that crate.

do u happen to know the maroon carriers measurements? my son is flying here, we bought and sent him the kennels, but he thinks they are to small.. need t;o know asap plz =)

Thankfully both my kitties love their carrier and want to sleep in them every night! I don't know why but that is where they prefer to be so I never feel like I'd ever have to use any force :) But I think the video would be helpful for others

My cat turns into a cannonball.

Beautiful job. Now if I can only do it with my hellcat.

My cat is too clever/strong/difficult for most of these methods. Unfortunately my cat carrier is not that big and doesn't have a top door. For his last vet visit, what ultimately worked for me was taking the carrier out of my appartment (out of the cat's sight), putting it in a vertical position with the door open, then taking the cat out and closing the appartment's door (otherwise he'd immediately run back inside, he is very fearful of any place outside the appartment). That took his focus out of avoiding the carrier, and distracted him enough to allow me to grab all his paws and get him into the carrier without too much fuss. That said, I have no idea if that method will work again (my cat may be more suspicious the next time I try it), and it's much more complicated than I'd like it to be, so I'm still holding hope that someone somewhere has a better method that could work with him.

if it's sunny it's obvious I have to put a wet blanket right

So cute~ Is she a dilute tortoiseshell? She looks just like my cat~

I’m dreading today have an appointment at 230 will start putting her in cage at 130,,,,,the struggle is real 🤦🏾‍♀️🐈🤕😓

Genius!

What if you can’t grab the legs because their hurt?

but my cat hates carriers she runs away and bites and gets really mad so what do i do

What breed is Rosie

The best I can do, is wrap the cat in a towel before breakfast. The towel helps control their legs and claws, then I can try to get them into the top as quickly as possible. And definitely cover the open areas, but my towels aren’t big enough.

Wish it were that simple....In practice, I try to calm down the cat as much as I can, then corner it in a narrow place and put the carrier around the cat, not the cat inside the carrier.

what if a cats leg is injured and cant pick him up how to put him in????

I live in a apartment and the carrier is always out where the cat can see it but anytime the cat sees me touch the carrier she runs and hides under the bed and wont come out. I did the treats in the carrier trick once, I put treats in the carrier for a few days before a vet visit to get her used to going in to get them and then on the day of the visit she went in to get her treats and I locked her in there, she was a very pissed off kitty. That never worked again, if I put treats in there in the morning they will be gone when I get home but if I am near the carrier she will not go into the carrier to get her treats. I have to get her back to the vet soon, I skipped the last 2 years because of covid and the vet saying people could not come inside with their pets, I just dread trying to get her into the carrier and other than immobilizing her with a towel (which would be a fight) I don't think any of these tricks will work.

Best way to use a carrier is to stick it in the bin and buy a crate this is a simple cage with a wide open top which is easy to lock in place, use some comfy bedding, place the carrier in a cardboard box pick up your kitty and simply hold your kitty over the open top and oblige her to go into it, some downward pressure on the cat will do the job without all the hassle and trauma of trying to feed your cat into a carrier. As for the carrier...just leave it in the bin.

Wonderful demos. In my view, these tips are not practical when you have a cat that is bent on not getting into the carrier. My oldest female cat is about 12-13 pounds and strong. I have seen several videos of vets using very docile cats. It does show you the right way, but they should also demo with a feisty cat. I've used the towel method a couple of times with success. The cat is disoriented before they realize what you're doing. I have used treats and calming spray too.

When I don't have to go to the vet, no problem getting him in it. When I do, its a problem.

Great job ladies! :•)
