Some cats get anxious about going to the vet. In addition to the anxiety from a car ride, the office is filled with lots of unusual smells and people that will poke and prod at kitty. Make an appointment with your Carrollton, GA veterinarian to ensure a cat-friendly environment. Invest in a sturdy cat carrier that is large enough for your cat to move around comfortably. Help your cat feel comfortable in their carrier by encouraging them to go in with the door open, long before you actually have to go to the vet. You want to avoid a mad dash to hide and avoid the carrier. Come to the vet’s office fully prepared. Write down any questions you want to ask so you can pay more attention to your cat during the examination. And make sure your reward your cat with lots of praise and maybe even a treat.
