Carat’s Day to the Vet
Posted on July 7, 2007
Today was Carat’s first vaccination. My mom and I were the ones who took Carat to the vet today and Carat, well, he was so afraid going there! He was trembling in my arms when we were going there.
He was ABSOLUTELY petrified to just be there! And I don’t blame him cause when we went into the vet’s checkup slash operating room, another cat just had himself spayed. And omg…the expression on the cat was HORRIFYING! The vet told us that the other cat was asleep in it’s cage but it didn’t look like it to me! That cat had it’s eyes open and glazed over like he was hallucinating and didn’t want to blink in case it disappears. It’s tongue was hanging out of it’s mouth like it was making a raspberry…it was…disturbing…and to think! Carat is gonna be spayed in about 2 to 3 months time!
So yea, Carat was agitated by this…I bet now he’s going through a traumatic phase after seeing that cat…and NO! I’m not able to help my Carat psychologically…I’m a psychology student…studying to be a clinical psychologist, not a animal psychologist D: !!
Not only did Carat came home with trauma as a souvenir, I got myself some too! His claw marks on my skin =.=!!! He scratched me throughout the trip and in the building…it was overall, a painful experience…
Happen to have gone through this before? What happened? Help me to help Carat get through this phase?

Hmmm…not a bad way to treat a stray cat. Actually, it’s the smell of an operation room as well as the urine smell of other animals at the vet that made Carat get scared. Well, Let him rest a few days and he will be better. I just do not understand why you would want to spay a male cat? I thought you only do that to female cat?
Eh?! LOL!! Did I say wrongly? Ooops!! Cause my mom kept saying “spay” cause she kept thinking it was female and then I also got influenced by this >o
