    How do you do an ultrasound on a cat with just two people? Last time my cat had one 5 people were holding her, and she almost got away.

      How many did she kill meanwhile?

      I did an internship at a vet once and even the fiercest dog was tame and easy to handle in comparison to a slightly upset cat.

      Very much depends on the cat, some of them just like being handled.

      My cat cannot even take a shower without medical sedation. My vet bill was too much and he was too nasty. I had to give him away

        Why would you shower a cat? They are pretty good at cleaning themselves

        Did you have the cat from a kitten, or adopt them once they were an adult?

          this was its behavior since it was 1 month old kitten. It has always behaved and thought as if water was fire. also scratching, biting, and fighting anyone who tries to carry it like a venemous snake. no vet or groomer could handle him without sedetion. It is a big short-haired russian breed with muscles like a small tiger. btw I’m an animal lover and worked in farms since I was a kid dealing , raising, training an taking care of all cattle animals and horses as well , and I still have 2 beautiful smart paient and well trained dogs and a cat. I’ve adopted, trained, handled, and conditioned more than 20 in my life. that cat was too ungrateful and I gave him away before nueterning him, and without declawing him either.

            Doubt.

            You write like an asshole, and I’m not surprised the cat wanted nothing to do with you

            Edit: Sorry mods, apparently I’m also an asshole. I will try to be nicer

              I can prove you wrong with pics but I don’t have to. Btw even the guy I gave this cat to couldn’t keep him. This cat impregnated a cat then killed all her kids and got the wife extremely sick by an infection and then we paid $1500 to save her in extensive care for a week. You cannot blame me for giving him away. I never hit him or abused him; I just couldn’t take care of him
