Many cats become anxious when it’s time to go the vet’s office. This could make you reluctant to take your cat in for well visits and routine care, which could ultimately result in health issues. Two major issues are the cat carrier and riding in the car. Help your cat acclimate to their carrier by leaving it open in the house for your kitty to explore. Put some treats inside to encourage your cat further. Close the door with your cat inside for short periods of time. Keep your cat in her carrier at all times when traveling by car. Start with the carrier in the car while it’s not running. Move on to the car idling and then backing down the driveway or a short drive around the block so car rides become routine. Praise your cat with enthusiasm when she complies. For more information, contact your pet clinic Aurora, CO.
