    My torty had “sassy” written in her vet chart. Them torties don’t play around.

    You have a good vet, they know that all torties need to be wrapped up like a little baby sometimes, for their health 😂

    Mine loves being carried around like a wee baby!

    I wish someone would wrap me into a burrito when I get sassy

    One of mine is great at the vet. The other? They need the stab proof gloves. She was raised by raccoons until I got her, found her in a dumpster with one protecting her. She’s a good cat though, loves me, just not literally anyone else.

      Does she let you trim her claws? What about getting her into a carrier to go to the vet? My cat loves me, but freaks out when I try. Wish there was a way to do those without stressing her out…

      One of mine took 3 people (including me), 2 pairs of gloves, 2 towels, and half a cat carrier to finally vaccinate. Next visit I told the vet she’d need sedated. He said “I’ve dealt with calicos before.” I then heard what legitimately sounded like a large wild cat screaming. He came back in and informed me they’d need to sedate her.

    Have to do this to my kitty to give her medicine. Thankfully haven’t had to do that in a while.
