Most Hisstercial 'Cats At The Vet's Office Moments Cat Owners Have Ever Had: ICanHasCheezburger Edition

For this week's challenge, we decided to laugh at some of the struggles of being cat owners. Because there are many, and although some are very real and very concerning and should be taken very seriously, some of them… are absolutely hissterical. So, we asked you to tell us about the funniest experience you had with your cat at the vet's office. 

People think that there really aren't very many struggles to being a cat owners. All they do is sleep and eat all day, right? Wrong. They sleep and eat most day, but the rest of the time they use to drive us insane. Cats have random zoomies at the most inconvenient times, cats bust into our Zoom calls exactly when we're talking to our bosses. Cats steal food right off our plates without any shame whatsoever. It's difficult, but it's totally 100% worth it. Because cats are purrfect.

    "I have a litter of feral kittens who were born on my property. Took them in for TNR when they were 6 months old. None of them were even a little tame yet, but Mini, the smallest and a sweet grey tortie, was the friendliest with me, and I knew she was going to be my love. Well, at all of 4 pounds, she escaped when they tried to anesthetize her. They chased her all over the clinic and finally trapped her in a closet, where she climbed the shelves to the very top. They eventually caught her and got her spayed, but she fought everyone, biting and hissing. It took them hours to catch her and sedate her. When I came to get her, they told me she was totally untamable and the most vicious feral they'd ever seen ! THIS is my Mini now."

    "This is my first cat Marie who will always be my baby. I had to find a new vet to bring her to because she flat out attacked the first vet I went to. She was never aggressive to anyone before so I was shocked when this happened. Don't know why she did this because she was never aggressive to another vet again. I miss her so much. She was 18 when she passed away in 2015."

    "Took my cat in for her semiannual check up. She usually pees in her carrier on the way there, so end up leaving her to get a urine sample. This one time she didn't, so her Vet took her in the back quickly to try to get it. I heard a big commotion, and then some laughing. Apparently, when the Vet Tech pulled her out of the carrier she started peeing. Her Vet told me, very proudly, she caught a good size sample in her hands. This is the donor."

    Font - Pat Bushong I had a LARGE Maine Coon. She was terrified. To try to make herself invisible, she spread out as flat as she could on the exam table - covering nearly the entire top of the table ! Both me and our vet laughed. He said, "Oh Miss Penny, I don't think this is working for you..." Like Reply Hide Send Message 2d 4

    Font - Samantha Slocom I took my mom's Norwegian Forest cat to the vet years ago. He did not want to have his temp taken, he crawled inside my coat, and squashed himself into the sleeve of my coat with my arm still in it. Took the vet and a tech both to help me get my arm out of the coat. Poor kitty still had his temp taken and his shots, all while he was crammed in my coat sleeve with just his nose sticking out the wrist opening.. That's also how he rode home too on my lap. He didn't come out o

    Font - Top fan Rob Smith My cat was abused by his former owner, so me and my current roommate had to deal with him with kid gloves, because he was always in a protection mode. Eventually he trusted myself and my roommate, but I believe we were the only two humans he did. Eventually he had to go to the vet, and needless to say he wasn't happy. Knowing his temperament, we both went just in case. The vet told us to let them deal with Neo, and for us to stand back. We looked at each other, said okay

    Font - Diane Murdoch Barker It was always a battle to get my cat, Jesse, into the carrier. After her visit to the vet, where she was poked and prodded and had her ears cleaned, she slunk back into the carrier on her own, which had suddenly become a refuge. The vet and I burst out laughing.

    Font - Paul Rinaudo Calista had a appointment with the vet for a eye infection, the vet put the drop in so infection would show. The vet turned off the light and came at her with a light hand tool. Calista was not having it and smacked the tool out of the vet's hand, the tool sailed onto to the floor. The vet could not believe that she knocked it onto the floor. Like Reply Hide Send Message 2d
