Sofa vs Cage

Just leave the carrier out full time. Throw a blanket in it and problem solved.

how do i comment an image?

I feel a business opportunity here...

OP learns about consent..

I once saw someone at my apartment complex try to use a cardboard box as a cat carrier. The cat clawed him good and then busted out to take off running. The poor man's wife was not amused.

Cupid has judged your meme and found it wanting.

Just put a box in the carrier, problem solved.

Leaving it out and about so they can get used to it works wonders when it's finally vet time. Only when they're young though. Our old cats know what's up.

I adopted my cat Orion a couple weeks ago. My little fella grew up in his shelter from a baby kitten, and lived in the shelter for over a year. I was organizing my apartment earlier this week and took the carrier out. He climbed in and used his paw to close the door somewhat. He misses his old home :'(

Emily at all times when wicker basket:

Are there any box shaped carriers?

Also a trick is to use a small dog sized carrier that they can stand up in

ours has a second door so we can let the cats poke their heads out (and i can give them scritches) while we drive. we haven't heard them whine on the drive to the vet in years

One goes to the vet one does not

We didn't have a cat crate. We just took our cat in pairs when one would drive and one would hold the her (pretty sure that's illegal here.

And she always screamed the whole drive.
