Tomorrow

Boyfie & Tigger are going to TED for their injections. Claire will have to
be 20 minutes before to get Boyfie into his box to go there. If he sees his
box he knows it's TED and he is a starfish, even if we can catch him. He
stretches out more than four legs.
Anyway, he has to go there.
Tigger is not so clued up. He falls for it every time. Let me stroke you
and put you into a box. OK.
I've allowed 10 minutes from the moment Boyfie sees his box, that might be
silly.

Is there anywhere you could put his box today, where it would be out of
sight but easily accessible?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have told people that Holly develops eight legs when it's time to put him
in the carrier--and Duffy develops sixteen! I always set up their carriers
in the utility room well in advance of a trip to the vet, but they both
react instantly as soon as I get them close to it (even Duffy, who seems to
have a "sixth sense" without vision). Somehow, they seem to know that
"something's up" as soon as I pick them up--I apparently give off vibes of
some sort that warns them that they are on their way to TED.

One time I brought up Sonny's carrier and its door made a little "tik"
sound and that was it, he remembered the sound from the year before and
disappeared. Now I bring it up the day before when he's outside and hide
it. I have to stand it on its end, pick him up and lower him back end
first.

He hates me to pick him up I will have to lower him into it like that.
I tell him it's for his own good, he could get nasty cat diseases.

I think it's cute how the two boys always seem to go in together. It's like
a play date.

Betty used to get so upset by the carrier being taken out, that she'd start
following me around asking to be comforted. It was so easy to take her to
the vet...

I keep my carriers on the floor of the closet with the doors open and a
towel in the bottom - easily accessible and inviting for casual naps
whenever the cats are so-moved. (They still object to being shut in,
but sometimes I get lucky and the case gets closed before the napping
cat realizes what's happening.)

Last time we went, I kept his box downstairs afterwards for 3 months with
the door open and a nice comfy blanket inside, like your idea of him going
in there for a nap and not seeing his box as negative. He just isn't that
gullible ;-)
He resolutely refused to use it as a sleeping place so I eventually took it
back upstairs. I keep it in his bedroom.

A play date from hell!
I do it because I don't think Claire would take Tigger off her own bat, not
because she doesn't care about him but because she is a working mother with
3 children and doesn't find the time to arrange it. So I make the
appointment for both of us.

Aww..
