How Can I Take My Cat To The Vet?
We recommend implementing these life care practices to ensure your cat’s safety and well-being during the visit to our clinic:
- Use a secure kennel or carrier for safe transportation.
- Make the kennel inviting with familiar bedding and scents.
- If you’re wondering how to train your cat to enter the kennel, you can lure them inside by feeding them treats.
- You can also spray the bedding with scents your cat is familiar with, or a calming spray for cats.
- Opt for a portable kennel with multiple entrances for easier handling.
How Can I Ensure A Stress-Free Vet Visit With My Cat?
Because cats can be hyper-sensitive animals, taking them to a new and different environment can be difficult, however, the examination process that a vet goes through is not threatening and is often calming. With you, the cat’s friend, providing comfort and reassurance, your cat will not be stressed or anxious.
Practicing taking your cat on car rides is also a good idea. This will familiarize them with the journey, making them less scared on the actual vet visit.
Treats and toys for good behavior will also be helpful in making sure your cat stays calm at the vet.
How Often Should I Bring My Cat To The Vet?
If your cat is still a kitten, you should bring the kitten in for a monthly visit for the first four months for immunizations and examination for health, growth, and development.
You should take your cat to Care Animal Hospital for annual check-ups during their adult stage (1-7 years old). If your cat is older, 7 years and up, then it is recommended that wellness exams should be accomplished two times a year or every six months.
