Your cat may become anxious or hide when it’s time to go the vet’s office. Thus you could become reluctant to take your cat in for good visits and routine care and only go for emergencies. This could ultimately result in health issues. Most cats who fear going to the vet are afraid of their carrier or riding in the car. Acclimate your cat by leaving the carrier open in the house to explore. Treats inside can encourage your cat. Close the door with your cat inside for short periods of time. Always keep your cat in her carrier when traveling in the car. Put her and the carrier in the car while it’s not running. Next, start and idle. Take a few short drives around the block. Eventually, these rides will become routine as will a ride to the vet. Praise your cat when she stays calm. For more information, contact your Temecula, CA veterinarian.
