Isn't it amazing...

I have the Sherpa on wheels for Mishi and I NEED it! Even though he's mostly fur and bones right now - it's a huge 13 lbs. of fur and bones and we're trying to fatten him up. He's easy to put in the carrier as that one's a top-loader.

Mitzi is another story in fact this morning I left her glued inside the bed's boxsprings as she knew she was going to be port-o-prisoned up to the alternate apartment while painters work on my apartment. The painters are working in the living room today while she's locked in the bedroom for the day.

Tomorrow will be another story - I must come up with a plan (evil plot?) so she won't get painted tomorrow as they'll be working on my bedroom.

Oh my girls are just the opposite.. I keep the carriers put up & if someone is to take a vet trip or where ever I get the carrier out the night before & leave in the living room & they all will play in it & sleep in it & then the next day they are like pick me pick me.. I will admitt the carrier will always have a blankie & some toys in it for the trip which makes it more relaxing..

That just simply amazes me. I leave the carriers out the night before too and I will put toys and a blankie in them, but it does no good.

I usually bring the carrier out a day or so before and try to make it look like an end table - very casually sitting next to a chair.

So getting one of them in it isn't the problem it is the horrific HOWLS AND YOWLS that start up once they are secured in them.

It continues all the the way to the vets - TORTURE IS IMMINANT........

Once I get them to the vets all noises STOP...............and then driving back home is usually just as peaceful. I always laugh at Rascal because once I am home he swaggers out of the carrier in front of Annie and Emma like - "it was nothing girls".............
