Am I taking THAT cat to the vet.
She really doesn’t like the pet carrier so usually as a rule we take her when it’s dad and I so I can hold her in the car and box on arrival.
She’s quite good so I thought ok put box in car, put blanket on seat put cat in car off we go she will be ok. So far so good...get round corner of house, fine, get to end of the track she’s shaking like a jelly. In box she goes. Crying yowling growling all 12 miles to vet. Vet did her thing in box. Time for the return journey.
She was quite settled, so dashed into work to collect something I’d left and grabbed a paper from the shop opposite and began driving home...she’s still calm and happy, purring and doing happy meows. My usual route home became an issue as there was 3 tractors in front so thought she won’t stay happy for that length of time I’ll go down to the bottom road and along and cut off on to home straight. Approx 6 miles from home I’m aware there is a paw protruding and scraping at the box...it’s fine she’s feeling about...4 miles from home, the wee bissom had managed to get out the pet box. Pulled in to the station got he settled thought 4miles this will be easy she won’t move.
BOY was I wrong. She climbed round the car twice, climbed over me sat on the dash, sure the farmer that saw her was thinking What the?? She settles on the last 2 miles on the rack above my boot area.
Some one pass me a Gin

Sounds like Merlin, one of the last trips to the vet before she died I put her in her carrier and went into another room to pick up my bag. As I walked back to the carrier she walked past me. The carrier showed no sign as to how she got out.
I tried getting her to the vet a few weeks later and she shredded my arm when the vet tried to weigh her.
Boy cats are big soft lumps in comparison.

Had a cat called Smarty, half Persian, a real character. When moving house, I drove from Macclesfield to Oxford with her howling all the way! Could onlly take her to the vets in a harness as she ran off the minute she saw the cat box.
When moving to Devon from Cambridge one of our other cats got out of the box whilst we were driving down the M5 and proceeded to wander round the car until a large lorry went past and scared her. She spent the rest of the journey lying between the two front seats fast asleep with her paws on the handbrake!
Cats! I love ‘em!

Hi, Queenie....a friend was moving house.....hundred or so miles. She had her cat in a basket on the back seat and it was screeching and lord could that cat screech.......must have been thinking.......VET!!!!
Friend was stopped for speeding but when the policeman heard the cat he sympathised.....let her off and wished her well for the rest of her journey....but did suggest she tried to take it a bit slower....... :-)

I was actually surprised at how good Karmen was, my father hated that cat and refused to have her in the house if I wasn't there so we had little choice - tbh I can see where my father was coming from Karmen was very high maintenance - she was an Egyptian Mau and obviously hadn't yet been told she was no longer a goddess!!
