RE: I need ideas on best brand of carrier for feral

Mine are the same way being indoor only.  They scatter when anyone enters the house.  Also,  I don't consider myself an animal communicator, but I think my cats are people communicators.  When I act totally nonchalant (having to take one to the vet) it's as if they "know" what I'm thinking and hide!  I have one scaredy cat who's not feral.
 
Once when I was trying to get him in the carrier all my tricks didn't work and I ended up chasing him round and round the house.  Finally he jumped on top of my kitchen cabinets.  Well I got a chair and blocked off where he climbed up and climbed up to get him.  Then I heard sssssssssssssssssssssss............. !!!!  He had wet himself, and the top of my cabinet he was so afraid.  I hate having to take mine in to the vet's.

Thing is, all my guys take off the minute they hear the doorbell and dragging BB out from under the bed would be just as tough & dragging the others would be harder then putting them in carriers!  I�ve had cats since I was a kid but back then they were indoor-outdoor.  Those cats were never afraid of people who came into the house but all of the cats I�ve had as an adult have been indoor only and all immediately ran to hide when the doorbell rings or when there is a loud noise in the hallway.  Even Big Boy who I brought in from outside as an adult runs & hides when someone comes in.  Interestingly, I was away for a few days recently & had someone come in to feed them.  Big Boy was the only one who came out to see who this person was!

With my Big Boy, I know that by now I could get him into the carrier & get to vet, but problem comes in when we get there

Wouldn't it be great if all vets made house calls??
