Hey Art, here's a suggestion. Actually, the solution is right there in
your post: why not bring your cat to the vet's once a month

You don't understand!!!

If I could, I would!

There are cats that would prefer not to be picked up. There are cats that
don't like to be picked up. There are cats that HATE to be picked up. There
are cats that go berserk when picked up. And then there's Calico.

They've said I could bring her in any time to do routine maintenance. But
getting this cat into a carrier is considerably more difficult than, say,
mediating the dispute between the Israelis and the Palestinians, solving
global warming, or finding Jimmy Hoffa's body.

BTW, you can see some shots of her on my personal site at

Looking at her, you wouldn't think she's a living terror.
