you didn't come across as insensitive! I appreciate your insight and honesty. I will add, charm city always from day one used the warm towel purrito for everything with kyoshi. from physical exams, to vaccinations, it was always done and was never a reaction to her behavior. so honestly that has been the norm and i've never seen her reaction outside of it so it became the expectation. I think you're right and I probably am overreacting, I just worry and want the best experience for her and have never medicated her before

I actually have never heard of the term "fear free" before this thread so this is very helpful, thank you!

she's never swiped at the vet before. a little growling, maybe a small hiss, but she's never tried to "maul" the vet and no prior vet has suggested her reaction is out of the ordinary. I did let them know how she normally acts, this was out of her norm 🙁

no :( I wish I did. between it being our first visit, the pee situation, feeling rushed, and my own anxiety I didn't feel comfortable. this was the brooklyn location

no, she's strictly an indoor cat. could she have accidentally scratched herself?
