Car rides and vet visits
Written by booeymom   

I have two kitties – Missy and Trikki – who are absolute angels at home, but the poor vets and techs who meet them wouldn’t know it because they’re total hellions when they're there. By planning ahead, and visualizing a positive outcome both for the drive and the actual visit itself, we get through it without needing an entire suit made of Kevlar. Okay we cheat and use falconer’s gloves sometimes!
