Reducing pet stress during vet visits


When you're at the vet, act calm, confident and rub your pet's ears. Photo: 123rf.com

The most common tip – familiarise your cat with the carrier – has never worked for us. Our pets will play in and on the carrier but the second we plan a trip to the vet, they vanish like small furry ghosts.

Still, as all cats are different, you can try it. Most importantly, layer it with a thick absorbent newspaper in case of bathroom accidents, and top with a comfy towel that has their own scent on it.
