Is your cat due for a visit to the vet?  Annual exams are an important part of caring for your pet’s health, but many cats find vet visits to be overwhelming.  Here are a few tips to help make your vet visit stress-free for you and your cat.

Cat Vet Tips:

• Use a Carrier – Cat carriers help your pet feel safe and prevent accidental escapes on the way to the vet.  Make sure your cat is comfortable with the carrier a few days beforehand by leaving treats, toys, and food inside.
• Keep Carrier Covered – While moving from your home to the vet, keep the carrier covered with a sheet or towel.  This will help your cat feel safe and secure.
• Provide Treats – If your cat is healthy, offer a treat to help teach your pet that the vet is a positive place to be.
• Practice – Practice some of the things that your vet will do when you are at home.   Always pair this with something positive to help your cat feel comfortable both at home and when they visit the office for an exam.
• Visit a Cat-Friendly Vet – Bregman Vet Group offers feline-friendly practices.  Our practices are quiet, peaceful, and stress-free for your pet.
