ronnies due for his vet visit

[CathyW]

hes due for a check up on his eye 2morow. although its looking alot better, its still a darker color than the other eye.
but i know its nothing nasty as hes not acting weird, and hes eating n drinking as normal.
just going to have fun getting him in the cat carrier, and getting him outs also fun, we have to pour him out LOL

[angieh]

Do so hope all goes well boys mum. Give ronnie some calming words from Merlin, who's a very good boy at the vet - it's the car he's not keen on!

[dandysmom]

Getting them in is a real problem! I hide mine behind the door up-ended, then grab the cat right after breakfast and pop him/her in before they realize what's happening. And I let the vet worry about extracting him/her...:-D

I hope all goes well at the visit for him!!

[babycakes]

Hope all goes well at the vets. Keep us posted. Big hugs to Ronnie

[CathyW]

i leave the carrier open in the hallway, and reggie promptly climbs in and has a sleep in it LOL
ronnie manages to splay all 4 legs out and puts up a struggle, but once hes in there hes fine. falls asleep in the car, its reggie whos vocal.
oh well hoping 2morows the last one.

Many well wishes for Ronnie tomorrow. I hope he's given the all clear!

Mine are OK to get into the carrier . . . just have to shake basket vigorously at the vet to get them out :roll: Except Ferdy who did the 4-legs-splayed trick. And then tried to eat his way out :shock: :shock: :shock:

Oh, that reminds me of something I haven't thought of in years! When I got my first cat as an adult, I didn't have a proper cat carrier. So I used an old wicker picnic basket....anyone remember those? Su-Ling the Siamese was OK going to the vet, although he bellowed as only an angry Siamese can; but coming home he decided enough was enough, and proceeded to try to tear his way out...we got home just in time: he had a hole big enough to get his head out and one paw!!!

[yola]

Yes, my baskets are wicker. The smaller basket still bears the scars of the bruiser boy.

I hasten to add, this was the 1st ever time I put him into the carrier. He has a bad head wound and was still entire :shock: hence his agression/fear. Once he'd been done he would slink in without a murmur :D

[CathyW]

just got the basket out n ronnie spotted it, he was off over them fences like a shot. ive just spent 10 mins rattling a can. he eventully turned up. hes now in the carrier moaning the best was a ronnie can.
off shortly.

[alexgirl73]

awww bless him! chuckling at the thought of him louping fences though. hope it all goes well for him.

[angieh]

Aye, good luck young ronnie!

[CathyW]

the vets happy with his eye, just keep an eye on him, and not to come back for 3 months. so well done ronnie.
had probs getting him out of the carrier. the vet just popped the top (didnt know it did that LOL)

[dandysmom]

Good news, BM! You must be very relieved! What kind of carrier do you have...I've never seen one where the top comes off?

[CathyW]

Good news, BM! You must be very relieved! What kind of carrier do you have...I've never seen one where the top comes off?its just a plastic one.bought it for £2-00 at a bootsale years ago.

[angieh]
