Swaddle the cat in a towel or blanket and just do it as quickly as you can.... I had a dog that needed this doing and that was the only way.

Good luck!

If he's that bad then just wear long sleeves and even gloves til you get him swaddled. And like I say do it as quickly as you can to reduce his distress.

If he's really not being helpful and becomes very distressed I would ask your vet if they are able to administer for you. One of my poorly dogs (I used to foster rescues) had such bad ears that my vet had to administer drops for the first few days. So that may be an option x

Rope in a friend and one of you wears oven/gardening gloves to hold the cat while the other does the deed.

Well had a go, swaddled and tried to be gentle, he has legged it in a frenzy of teeth and claws with the cream perfectly applied to the space between his eyes!!! Think will take your advice and ask the vet

We have just had to wrap ours in a towel at the vets.

She got really agitated whilst waiting to go in. Some numpty woman set next to me with her dog. Cleo was hissing, spitting and getting stressed out. They have separate seating areas for cats and dogs. We were in the cat area.

The vet had to get an assistant to help, wrap the towel round her head, hold her tight, whilst I held her back end. The deed was then duly done xxxxxx

Wrap him up as tight as you can without hurting him, those little buggers can wiggle out of anything.

I had great fun trying to get tablets and liquid meds down my cat after he had his front leg amputated.

Trying to hold him tight enough so I could dose him with pain meds quickly and easily so I didn't hurt him more than necessary and get him settled again quickly.

A nightmare which left me feeling sick and shaking like a leaf the first time..... bloody animal

We have one just the same I find the swaddling and holding the skin at the back of the neck works as this is how mummy cat would move them about so they become a little more calm.

in the suffolk countryside

thier mums hold them by the scruff of the neck as kittens, their natural reaction is to freeze so that their mum can carry then with no wriggling to safety. so psychologically to a cat its mum being helpful.

so hold firmly by the scruff but make sure you are in a calm confident space first and talk in a low voice to the cat

good luck x

Sit the cat down and explain that it's for its own good and show it a treat it will get when it's all done.
