Here is your cat's perspective of the being transported to the vet:

We can make it better!

Here is a video clip of our clinic cat, Sheldon. He has been in a carrier twice, once when he was brought to the clinic as a stray and the second time was when we had a tornado warning. Sheldon loves boxes as you will see in the video. After he jumped into the box, we brought a carrier in to see what would happen. It really can be this easy! Play with your cat and make it fun.
