Cat Carrier Reset

Carrier panic often begins with how the carrier predicts handling. Start with presence, investigation, and low-pressure food routines.

What matters most

  • Keep the carrier out and open, not hidden until appointments.
  • Pair investigation with rewards before door movement.
  • Treat loading and travel as later chapters.

Working sequence

  1. Reward the cat for looking at or approaching the carrier.
  2. Build voluntary entry before lifting or closing.
  3. Add movement in tiny layers with recovery between reps.
