At the v-e-t

I’ve been told an easy way to get a cat into their carrying box: plonk the cat in front of the door facing away from the box and push them in backwards. There is no resistance, no sharp octopussycat, and the look of bewilderment on their face as you shut the door in front of them is hilarious.

Mr Perkins is at the vet because he’s been limping and hasn’t improved since I took him in the other week.
