Help! How do you get a cat into a carrier...update! SUCCESS!!!!!

[Randi]

I can sympathise, Fister was impossible to get into a carrier years ago. The first problem was getting hold of him.

Apart from the good advice you've got already, one thing you could do is give him a tranquilizer, just a mild one like 2-5 mg of Valium. Ask your vet about that.

Or have the dreaded box standing in the bathroom or kitchen on the counter and chase him out there with a broom or vacuum cleaner. Close door quickly! Grab him and lower him into the box.

Another thing you could do, is to grab him while he's asleep, hold him tight and have someone ready with the box.

Good luck!
