they have an odd concept of a fair right though. the cat has teet and claws and can teleport. but if i use a thick towel to wrap the cat, i’m not being fair?!
My mind when reading “The cat is faster and has sharper teeth and nails. It has no code of ethics or consideration for its own future”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhQPzLy5X04
It can’t be bargained with, it can’t be reasoned with, it doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear, and it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead
Dun-dun dun dun-dun.
Dun-dun dun dun-dun.
The same advice also works on children.
In a fair fight it will win!
Vets learning how to fight dirty
Gotta sneak up and sucker punch em from behind
I feel like they should have specified:
Use drugs (on the cat)
Either will work.
The more drugs I consume, the less I worry about performing medical procedures on the cat, so problem solved! Now where’d I leave the ketamine?
They said what they meant.
Me, high as shit: Man idk the cat still looks angry…
Not a “textbook”. Clearly printed PowerPoint slides.
Get high and headbutt your cat.
You are on your way to vegetarian of the year
I love it when cats headbutt back (seemingly) way too hard, it’s really expressive.
winningOne of my childhood buddy once told me his dad killed their dog like that for biting his sister and other people for 1 or 2 time .
:(
Wow, you’re a real cunt huh? Your post history is utter garbage.
You should kill yourself.
Nah i could fuck a cat up easy
Things you don’t want to hear a vet tech say for $300
Right?
Cats aren’t a huge threat. They are vicious but tiny. Long sleeves and gloves and the cat is done for.
Better put your Carhartt on because those little razor paws could catch a wrist and end you with one good swipe.
Rose pruning gloves did nothing against Alex… evil little orange bastard.
If your vet even gets in a situation where they’d “have to fight” your cat you probably wanna go to a different vet
I mean, sometimes cats need care and the vet doesn’t really have time to gain their affection before poking them with a needle or prodding them all over. Not every cat is a fan of that, so sometimes you gotta deal with a cat who is trying very hard to claw your eyes out.
If you can’t handle them without sedative then you can’t administer the sedative in the first place. If you can handle them well enough to give them a sedative shot then you could just give them the vaccine shot you wanted to in the first place
I mean cats can be a lot harder to handle after you poke them. What if you need to give multiple vaccines? What if you need to draw blood? What if you need to touch other parts of their body to look for issues? What if you need to examine their mouth? Some cats will put up with it, some (a lot) will not. It’s a lot safer and less stressful for everyone if you just use a sedative when needed.
Inhalation anesthetic. We had kitty sized masks for the cats that just wanted to hiss and spit, and we had a clear, plexiglass box for the cats that wanted to rip our faces off. Once the cat goes googly eyes, we could intubate, or just finish the procedure quickly, and get it back in a carrier to recover.
We also had a bag. It was basically a thick pillowcase with 5 zippers on it. We’d stuff the cat in, and only unzip one hole at a time.
“Something something sheer fucking will”
IN A FAIR FIGHT, A CAT WILL WIN
Fight dirty; punch the cat below the belt.
The cat is one step ahead, for they have no belt to punch below.
Then where’s the Galaxy?
This is why I have a little bottle of gabapentin in the fridge. I’m fine with the scars of playful nips and accidental scratches but sometimes a gentle manicure is needed or it’s necessary to get her into the carrier and go to the vet. And just in case she’s ever injured, I could ease the pain before taking her in and she wouldn’t struggle and maybe injure herself more. Because pain doesn’t stop a cat, they just fight harder.
We do this too. :) My main coon has garnered a reputation at the vet. 🥲
hits bong
Cat hits smaller catnip-filled bong
That seemed to work
