I had this case the other day where a clever cat seemed to know exactly when to leap off the exam table right before I could get a thorough look. It’s like they have a sixth sense for the scale or syringe. Anyone else experience a feline Houdini act during a check-up? It’s both frustrating and kind of hilarious.
I’ve definitely had my fair share of feline escapes during exams! I’ve found that having a towel ready to gently wrap around them can help make them feel snug and secure, which might deter those quick leaps off the table. Have you tried that approach?
Cats really do have a knack for dodging! I’ve tried treats to trick them onto the scale, but it doesn’t always work. Ever thought of using a carrier to limit their escape routes?
I’ve had some luck using a low, wide box as a makeshift carrier during exams. It keeps them contained better than most standard carriers do. Have you tried that?
