Have you been traumatised by a vet visit?

Our cats may get traumatised from being at the vets but what about us – their empathic guardian?

No-one talks about or addresses how it feels for us to take our beloved feline friend to seek veterinary care.

Recently I took Baby Max to the vet because he has licked one his little arms bare.

I tried to treat it with natural remedies, but as I wasn’t fully sure what I was treating we needed a little help. Complementary doesn’t mean alternative in our home! I love working WITH my vet to support the health and well-being of my boys.

I’m sure you are aware of how to help your cat survive a vet visit (calming music, something that smells like you in their carrier, or perhaps the addition of dried herbs for their journey etc.)

But as empaths and cat mums/dads we experience a whole host of emotions and energies around the entire experience of the vet visit. Getting them ready and into the box, the travel to the surgery, the waiting room, the consultation room, the ride home and then that golden moment (for you and the cat) when you get home and open the box to the carrier and the cat is free!

It’s great when they come home (because whatever you went to the vets for didn’t end up in them dying – let’s face it we all have that fear deep, deep down inside). And breathe!

In this video I will share with you the personal experience I had with Baby Max talking about how traumatic, emotional and upsetting it was for me.

And then I will share with you what I did to deal with the aftermath in the hopes that it will support, inspire and provide comfort to some of you. You are not alone in finding your vet visits a truly terrible experience – no matter how lovely the vet is. It’s all about the energy and emotion that you and your cat experience around the whole situation.

So let’s take a look at how you can help yourself AND your cat survive a vet visit.
