When the pets outsmart the techs

I had a moment today that really cracked me up. We were prepping a cat for chemo, and while I was distracted with a needle, he somehow managed to flip the whole exam table over! I guess he didn’t want to go through with treatment — or maybe he thought he could make a run for it. Anyone else had pets embarrass you like that?

Cats always have a knack for drama, don’t they? I had a similar incident with a dog who managed to slip out of his collar during a kennel check — just took off like it was playtime. It’s wild how they can sense when we’re distracted, right?
