How to Get Your Cat into the Carrier
THE ROUTINE:
We've all been there. Your vet appointment is in 30 minutes and you only have 5 minutes to get your cat into the carrier and be on your way. But you forget how psychic your cat is. He/she immediately senses that something is up and heads for their secret hiding spot.
