Angry Cats Who Hate the Vet

- What are Cole & Marmalade like at the vet? This is a question we often get asked, well this is what they're like…
Marm has quite the reputation at vets because of his CATITUDE, when he was going through chemo treatments every week, I sometimes had to go into the room alone and put a mask on him so he couldn't bite the vet techs! … Poor lil guy as been through so much in his short time here on earth :(
Cole's not fond of vet visits either and he's very vocal at times, but his hisses are just empty threats… We do our best to calm the boys down prior to vet visits, we leave the carriers out so they get used to them, use Feliway wipes and Rescue Remedy, but as you can see these have minimal effect on them unfortunately.
We also wipe down Marmalade with a blanket Cole as been using to get the horrible vet scent off of him in the hopes that Cole will be more friendly when he sees his brother again… but in reality it doesn't work that well and it always takes a little time for Cole to feel at ease with his brother back in the house after being gone all day.

The best thing about black cats are how they look like they're just a pair of big expressive eyes surrounded by black puff.
Hex Isme I agree
So cute😊
That’s exactly what I think when I look into the expressive eyes of my black haired fluffy boy cat.
Black cats are excellent pet cats.
He's not black he's an AfriCAT American get it right.
Hex Isme Now that I have a house panther, I know what you mean. She just looks like a shadow with yellow eyes.
I’m shook seeing the dark angry side of Cole and Marm.
JAR4LIFE O-o i know, its scary
Mostly marm
@@xxdeletedfortniteaccountxx3543 pretty sure he either did bite or tried to at 1:22
@@ShadowSkyX I'd say he did.
My cat Orio hates the vet as well.. he gets very quiet around them, which I've learned is the calm before the storm. When a cat starts growling, good things are not about to happen. =^..^=
They're both actually very behaved at the vet compared to most cats! My cat sounds like a screaming banshee when she goes in for vaccines....
Oh no xD
Oh Gawd
mine too, they sound like they are getting murdered
(as bad as it sounds its true for most people )
r/vaxxhappened
my cat dose not like the vet's
Goodness sake, Marmalade has some very ungentlemanly language!
I know! My heaven's *clutches pearl necklace*
Captain America somewhere in the distance- SO. MUCH. LANGUAGE.
*hiss* *grrr*
What if it was ungentelwomanly language? U don't know
@@frankhalliday8071 Marmalade is a male
Marmalade: *comes back from the vet*
Cole: _HE SMELLS LIKE THE BAD PLACE!!!_
I feel so bad for Marm when he gets home to Cole. He's just like "big brother! They took me to the evil person in the white coat! I was so scared, and I need comfort!" And then Cole was just like "get the f--- away from me"
ToT
Cole was like "You got VET germs on you, get away from me or the hoomans will take ME next!!"
Not sure that any cat likes going to the vet, but it's a necessary part of life. These boys have an amazing life and are fortunate to have such responsible pet parents.
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats ALL animals, even dogs hate the vets. They can tell when they're going to go.
I grew up with a lot of cats, I would try and calm them down by putting food in their carriers and petting them but they were still upset.
When the vet was finished, I had to cuddle them because they were so upset.
I think my sister's cat was the most traumtised, she would have severe panic attacks and would pee herself, I really wanted to cry because obviously they can't talk back 🙀😿
not my cat, spooky loves going to the vet, she´s so sweet with all the people there
My dogs LOVE vets. Litterally I have to bring my dog to the vet quite often, because she has very sensitive trachea and a minumum cold and viola, we are at the vet, but on the other hand our vet always gives them treats and as a rescue dogs they are never full so they litterally drag me through the door (paradoxally the one who needs more vet visits tries to break the door just to get into the office) I am feeling so lucky that my dogs (even if they are fully aware what is vet) love them. I see how my boyfriends mom is strugiling with her dog each time she needs to vaccinate him :D
But what about cats - that is totally true. Bouth of mine are thinking that the vet is a hell keeper, one in particular is agressive, another is more like Coal and just hissess and whines.
Jericho & Thunder The 2 Gray Cats my Rocco howls and howls like the world will end. Then he gets in the treatment room with the doc and he pops his head up out of the carrier as if to say "what's up everybody! how's it going?" He's my weirdo.
Oddly enough, my one cat who went to the vet most was the one who actually liked it. She had kidney disease and all sorts of complications arising from that, so she was frequently in for tests, needles, and/or hospitalization. Yet she was always just excited to see the people there. She loved all humans, and especially loved meeting new humans, so going out anywhere there was people would be a treat for her. She tolerated needles and the like nicely as long as she got to spend time with friendly people. The only thing she hated about vet visits was seeing dogs and other cats lol
When the vet said "Yes, use your words" to Cole 🤣! My cat just doesn't like leaving our home. Its always a big to-do when she comes back: a melodramatic walk thru of our place as if she's been gone for centuries when it's been less than 45 mins (the vet just down the street), followed by an extended period of time outside gazing over the horizon as if she's trying to reassess her life, and a lot of unsolicited meows and mews coming from a relative non-vocal cat. She's a performer 😂😂😂!
ahahahahaha
Sounds familiar!
I think that was Chris’ wife, Jess, not the vet.
i never see him angry like this
Cole was scratching that post thinking "This could be you!"
Michael500ca Lol ikr 😂
Lol
Yup 😂😂😂
I've got the exact same scratching post lol!
These cats are like “Dad I temporarily hate you.”
But give me a treat afterwards and I'll totally forgive you.
A random Guy Tuna solves everything. Same for me.
Seeing Marm hiss was really eye opening for me. Awww no poor sweet but sick kitty!
:'( poor baby ♥
Poor marmadle
It’s okay Marm, I hate going to the “vet” too, especially today. I got my wisdom teeth removed. I feel better than I thought I would though
That's good. I'm getting mine out in a couple of weeks and I'm so nervous. I've never had any type of surgery b4😓
Take heart. I am the worst dental patient an can say the oral surgeons do it quickly with minimal if any pain.
How does Wisdom Teeth extraction feel like??
Bruce Smith Thanks. I feel a bit better about it
Pulchra Semper It feels different between the top and bottom sets (It’s more painful on the bottom) and while my pain is nowhere as bad as I thought it would be and I can actually talk, at its worst it felt like two knives in my gums. I’m actually feeling okay though. I’m still in pain but it’s not too bad. I can also tell there’s something missing in all four spots.
I REALLY WANT A CAT
*sees video*
I STILL WANT A CAT
That's me
Go adopt
Cats make everything better, go adopt!
Maybe one will just adopt you!!!! Good luck
let me know when you get a cat
My sweet boy turns into a demon when he goes to the vet. I literally heard sounds and growls I never heard come out of my cat before. If I didn’t know he was a cuddle bug I probably would be scared lol
If cats could speak like humans, all you would hear would be swearing 😂
Yup! And insults, too!
Cats hate the Vet and humans hate the dentist.
Aisha Ilyas I agree!!!!!!
Dentist, where? /me hides under the bed
Guess I'm no human
I hate you too
I don't hate my dentists no hate
Seeing a doctor is a stressful experience for us humans too 😰
I fell more save cuz he knows what to do if suddenly a car drive trought the wall into you
Not really doctor more of dentist
I agree.
When I saw the thumbnail I thought 'that can't be Marmalade, that kitty looks so angry'. Awww poor baby. I'm lucky my furchild handles everything like such a lil pro. She only cries if I'm not petting her. As long as she knows I'm there she seems like she is willing to let the vets do anything. Poor Marm. ♥
Poor Marmalade! Such a sweetie - he's been through so much xx
Cole: Wait a minute! My teeth aren't back there! You want to stick that where? I hate everybody!"
I love how the reacted at the vets. They hissed as if saying, "Stay away because I am scared of you and I might have to hurt you." But, then, they are so well-behaved that they don't try to do anything more than just hiss. It's like they hate the trip but understand that the vet is a part of their lives.
You did a wonderful job with raising two wonderful cats.
My cat Rupert loved visiting the vet, and the vet's office personnel loved him! One of many times at the vet's office, one of the vet techs apologized for taking so long to bring Rupert out. Everyone wanted to see him and pet him. He liked everyone there too. We also had a cat go through cancer treatment. His name was Barnaby, and he loved people too. Cancer took him from us, but Barnaby never complained even once. Our vet was amazed that he was so cooperative with all of the tests and the pokes. When she was taking several samples of his tumor, she poked him several times. Barnaby didn't grump at her, but finally put his paw on her hand as if to say "please stop". She told us later that he was the most polite cat she had ever met. She even had to shave his underside and he loved it! He just rolled around and purred! We lost him 4 years ago this week. I miss my little buddy. We had 5 wonderful years together. I think it is great that Marm is cancer free!
Aww... Rest in peace Barnaby.
That’s a very heart touching story William ... But let’s say his pain is over now. I hope u get the strength to deal with with your loss..RIP Barnaby!
3:37 mamalades like "Cole it's me your brother. Remember me???" and coles like "YOUR NOT MY BROTHER!!!!! GET AWAY STRANGER!!!!!! STRANGER DANGER STRANGER DANGER!!!!!!!!!!!"
One of my previous cats was FIV+, and it was the first time I'd heard of FIV. But he lived for many years with it, and his brother was FIV-, and stayed that way his whole life. Cat owners can have many happy years with a cat who has FIV. It's something to consider carefully, but it can work out OK.
yeah, my first feline bb was FeLeuk+. she beat her projected lifespan by a LOT, as far as either me or the vet could tell her QUALITY of life was decent up till very close to the end, and she pretty much played/lived with my neighbors' kittehs who were negative without passing it on to them for YEARS.
*Cole and Marmalade* have both come a long way. Thank you *Chris* for continuing to share their journey through life with the rest of us. *#CatLoversUnite*
Randy H. Black people love cats too?
*Alpha Omega* Yes...yes we do.
Cats are the best pets.
I'm surprised that youtube allowed this video with all that salty language coming from the boys. ;-)
TheJoker1701 ytftt4re
That would be so funny to "bleep out" their hisses.
You would hiss too if someone stuck something in your butt
Wow...That was completely uncalled for....
TheJoker1701 Bicth I don't give a fuck
I've gone through 8 surgeries in the last 7 year's... I don't blame them one bit! Vet/dr visits are never fun!
The Lady Lotus Wearing the cone afterwards is the worst 🤤
The Lady Lotus that suck but at lest you’re still alive
The Lady Lotus I have had 18 operations on my left leg growing up.
“Where did she pit that thermometer?”
Cole - “You know damn well where that wench put that horrid device!!! Now I demand you fetch me a bowl of wet food and clean my turlet as punishment!”
The baby clip of Marmalade broke my heart 🤧
While there's nothing funny about vet visits, part of this video was a little comical. When marm is walking around the house a little dazed from the anaesthesia and Cole looks at marm then at the camera like "are you seeing this? That dude is high"
calska140 Marm looked high as fuck
My Kittie..Sammy..rip.
Hated the vet..he would cuss me out all the way home..and more once out his carrier.
But i would give anything to have Sammy back again just to hear him cuss me out once more. Miss my boy.
Im happy that your unhappy kitties are lovef soooo much.
Good work💖👍😸
I think they mean that they were unhappy at the vet
I had a cat named sammy too. He was an absolute badass. He got his leg chopped off in the fan of a car and a while after getting it fixed up he caught a small fast rabbit on 3 legs. RIP.
@@sagenevell my cat died before Halloween started
@@erzy2982 I'm very sorry for your loss😿. I hope in time you'll open your heart. to another cat to love🐈💗.
@@dianekimball6812 I have a new cat named snow bell😊
When our male cat came back from sterilization, he had that cone and his kids were afraid of him. xD 2 of them even pooped when he entered the room. That was the first time I saw someone shit themselves from fear. lol
One of my dogs jumped on another dog presumably without warning or provocation (She either caught or found a dead rabbit, a major prize she was very proud of) when dad took it away. She got so upset and angry about it that she turned on the other dog and scared the literal shit out of him as she nailed him. She absolutely took her anger out on him, as if saying in doggy words it was his fault dad took away her prize. Had my dad been another dog, she would've torn his ass up over it. But she knows not to mess with humans like that, ever.
Roflmao!!!! Didn't know cats can shit in fear 😂😂😂
Marm's ears at the dentist: "I'm really a tiger, you're putting your life on the line, lady!" Too much if a gentleman, though!
My cat is just the opposite. Hisses & growls at me, bites & scratches me when I try to examine him at home if he's sick or wounded. However at the vet the worst he does is struggle a little, Hell he doesn't even make a peep there or back. One day one of the nurses said she was even giving him cuddles & I was like, "Are you sure you had the right cat?" 😅
Have you tried to squish that cat?
@@Mortablunt I-
Maybe your cat has a bad association with men/woman?
If u were to turn Cole and Marm into wild cats, Cole would be a black panther and Marm would be a tiger. It’s as simple as that :) Meow
Ya They look like it when there hissing
Those are the big cats they resemble most. 💜💛💙
Oh my! Marm looks completely different when he hisses!
I had a black and white cat we named "Smokey". He hated going to the vet. When he knew he was going he would save all his pee and when the vet picked him up he peed all over him 😀.
Man ur cat just wanted payback.
My cat in my profile pic is named smokey.
Damn, and people try to pretend they know animals better than I do and tell me that they aren't capable of spite! Yeah, no, they totally can! If a two year old can be spiteful, a dog or cat can be too
I can't believe the sweet curious Marm can be so hissy XD
cole and marmalade when they get placed in the cage:
Ah shit here we go again
First time I see Cole hissing
That's the first time I've seen both of them hiss!
I have never see Cole hiss before
same here.
It’s the first time I’ve seen them both mad. But remember, in the end, they’re still cats.😅
I know right its almost like when you see your favorite family friendly youtuber swear on camera its shocking!
Poked, prodded, shots and sometimes fitted with the dreaded cone of shame...if cats had a dart board the face on it wouldn't be the local dog but the well meaning yet loathed Vet.
lol at 3:20 Cole is just like
*WHAT HAPPENED TO MARM!!!*
Even with all the growling and hisses, the babies still managed to stay calm and not cause too much trouble lol
What is the best thing about going to vets? Of course, it is being back home again.
Poor Marm! He's such a little cutie when we aren't talking about the v-e-t! But he has a fierce! And you can tell Cole was so confused : "You look like my brother but you don't smell like him" (hiss).
I have to take my girl to get spayed next month....drama will ensue.
Uh oh...
Wow, I've never actually seen a cat other than mine go to the vet. He just sits there, doesn't look happy but he doesn't even make a peep. Poor Cole and Marm, they really hate it.
BluCat They're just like people in that aspect. Some hate going to the doctors, others are like "meh. Just get it over with."
I'm so glad the boys are doing well. My youngest who I swear has a split personality lol. His name is Yoda and one minute he'll be kind and loving the next he'll want to bite your hand off if you even think about touching him, take him to the vets and he's a completely different cat. You try and cut his claws at home he'll scratch you to pieces, veterinary nurse does and he doesn't blink and eye. My eldest cat Munchkin sings the song of his people until you let him out the carry box. Our middle cat Obi is a good boy but if we have to take all 3 of the cats to the vets once Munchkin starts singing Obi and Yoda join in and we 3 cats singing the song of their people at the top of their voices.
Lisa Carroll lol sings the song of his people. I love that. I will have to use that the next time I take my babies to the vet.
I shall sing the song of my people
POTATO POTATO POTATOOOOOO POTATOOOOO POTATA POTATA TATER TATA POTATOOOOO
Sorry I didnt get notifications that you had both commented.
Lisa Carroll no worries. I usually don't either.
My goodness! I've never seen Cole hiss! It's a startling sight!
He's a vampire and black panther mixed together at 3:39 with that black fur, those large eye pupils shining in the light, but most of all his teeth😨😨😰😰😰
*CONGRATS, you found footage of marmalade hissing*
Edit: *forgot to say it’s rare*
My cat absolutely HATES going to the vet! He will scream, hide, and then attack me if I try to wrestle with him and shove him into the kennel to take him to the vet. Neither of us look forward to a vet appointment!
Sabina England my cats do the same only we have to deal with 2 of That
Once one of cat pooped on my Moms sock cause he didnt want to go
Try a bit of Bach's rescue remedy rubbed in their ears. The morning of, and about 20 minutes before you go. My vet recommended it. I was super skeptical because it seems really out there. But it worked. I mean, she's still not happy - but way calmer.
With my Kiwi it is the same. It litterally takes two people to get him in his kennel. And otherwise a very affectionate cat turns into a spining yoyo with nails and teeth. Though paradoxally enough, if i take the kennel door off and just leave the box on the ground bouth of my cats likes to sleep in them
Every god damn time my cat pees on our vet, if he is far from him, he tries to aim correctly with his dick
respect to the cat :D that made my day
I never thought I’d see the day where I see cole and marm hissing, I’ve always seen the happier side of them. I guess they’re cats at the end of the day and that’s their nature
l l I feel like it's any animals nature to do that when they're taken to a strange scary place and being poked and prodded
Cole is a beautiful cat
Edit: thanks for the likes i usually never get so many.
they both are 😍
HUYI1 marmalade is more on the cute side
Captain Fluffy cool and I love ur adorable and funny name 😆
Mr Cactus K Cole is the size of my cat has the same personality and same eye color but my cat is a brown white and black tabby
Jayda Smalls awww that’s so cute btw you have the same first user name as a friend of mine.
I am a good cat!!
Marmalade just smells like that bad place!!!
NOBODY WANTS THE THERMOMETER, ITS IN THE WRONG END!!!!
What a beautiful cat Cole was!!!! So very handsome!!!
Humans don't like the thermometer too
JonatasAdoM If it's a rectal Thermometer yes. Would look very weird. A Cat havin a Thermometer in their mouth
My cat Nala DESPISES the vets too. When she's in her carrier inside the car she'll start continuously meowing and crying. Then when we bring her in she'll start shaking so much the box shakes with her. When the vet tries to get her out the box she clings onto the inside and we have to end up taking the top of the carrier off and use multiple pairs of hands to get her out. One time when she was getting her vaccinations she struggled so much that the vet nearly stabbed her in the wrong place with the needle......
The thing about the Marm fella and Cole boy is that they try to be fierce but it always come across as adorable.
**Look at Marmalade**
😔😔😔
**I miss my cat**
Cole looks like he's thinking: "Marm! You've sold out! You've been hanging out at the vet's! You smell like the vet's office! I'm hiding!"
I love you Cole and Marmalade ❤💖
Jacqueline/proud mama Robertson me too😍
Aww when i saw that thumbnail i couldnt believe that, that was our little marm
Marm hissing in the carrier like "SCREW YOU DAD >:("
Such hate and vitriol in such a cute package...
I'm in awe!
Thanks for letting us see a side of Cole and Marm that we had not seen. I didn't know both of them hiss in such a way during their checkups.
I remember when Marmalade went to his first vet visit, now that is going back in time. Marmalade your just as handsome as ever. ❤
"It's over!" My favorite part of a vet visit too! Love getting home and letting kitty out of the carrier!! Whew!!! Made it through another round of being poked and prodded by aliens :)
It’s amazing how you have to shake them out of the carrier at the vet’s, then when they see/smell home, they explode out of it!
Lol marm is like : GTF away from me!!!!
Too cute.. Marmalade always looked a little afraid and Cole looked straight up pissed! Lol
Adorable cats.. as always..
I'm so sorry that Marmalade has been through so much! Poor little guy. I'll think of him whenever we are at the vet.
it makes me so sad to see them distressed and upset ): but also happy when theyre back home and no longer upset
Hard to believe Cole and Marmalade, such sweeties, hissing and growling at the vet! My cats were afraid at the vets, but never acted like that. One of my cats even purred for the vet, and the tech said she had been a real sweetheart with them-- until it came time to put her in the carrier. Stacy and Nina were both at the vets to be spayed, and STacy and Nina were not notably friends. When it came time to put Stacy in the carrier with Nina, suddenly she put on the air brakes! With a little effort, both were in, though they hissed at each other. The finally settled down, side by side, with their heads at opposite ends, so at least they didn't have to look at each other. They both sulked until inside the house, when I released them.
4:42 - 5:30 When your parents wake you up for school
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this video!! We had an incident with our little 'un having to stay overnight at the vet hospital. When he got home his sister was so mean to him! 8 months of trying to figure out how to get them back to living with each other. I feel better that even Cole and Marm have that scuffle because it means my kids are okay.
Thanks you so much for sharing these less 'glamorous' moments of CAM, Chris! As a new cat parent to 2 formerly feral cats, I find it most frustrating whenever something causes my cats to hiss or hide (new people coming to the house, loud noises etc). I can't help but think, "Other people's cats all seem SOOOO sociable and confident. I must be doing a terrible job as a parent :( "
To be honest: I don‘t like to go to the Doctor either. Sometimes I wish I could bite them too 😉😂
4:48 That's one angry marmalade.
4:50
4:56
poor marm 🙀
The funny thing for me was seeing Cole sharpen his claws after getting home. I was expecting him turn on you afterwards 😂
3:39 COLE: BACK OFF MARMALADE!
MARMALADE: Oh, sorry!
Marmalade is a good sport considering his past health issues. What a handsome boy! One question: I thought FIV positive cats have to be only pets?????
Cole: OMG! Where is my cat tree!? Where’s my scratching post?! My claws really need some pedicure!
*Comes out of crate at home*
*Cole goes to scratching post immediately*
Finally! So much for pedicure at the vet....
It's a black cat thing. ;-)
Dirty Money lol
Cole: "Back! Back you fiend!"
Marmalade: "Was it something I said?"
Cole: "You're a werewolf! A weeerewoooolf!"
Marmalade: "So're you."
Cole: "Oh. Well...all right."
whats a fiend again?

Marmalade:
YEESH!
Who peed in HIS Meow Mix?
Watching this gave me a lot of reassurance. My kitty Ahri turns completely feral when I take her to the vet, complete with hissing and lunging. I thought she was just weird but seeing your two happy boys panic at the vet made me feel a lot better. No kitties like the vet!
Yay I'm super glad that marmalade survived cancer and thank you Chris for rescuing big cats and we all must thank you😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
And it sounds like you're crying when you were saying stuff to the boys (cats)
First
Time when i see cole and marm angry :)
I have seen because when marm visited The vet when he was a kitty
O. M. Me tooo
Hey guys thanks fur 172 likes 😸😸
Chris doesn't say "good girl" to Cole; he usually calls him "Coco"!
Love those vids - Cole & Marm are very cute boys, and they have such a loving home with Jess & Chris❣😻😻
It was strange to see Marmalade hissing and being moody as I am so used to seeing him being such a docile cat. Bless him. x ❤️
your cats are usually so happy and funny, breaks my heart to see them upset and not feeling well.
Poor Marm. I’m so sorry that he has to go through this. Ur cats r just irresistibly cute!!!
My cat acts like a perfect angel in front of the vet but at home she drops the act real quick lol
Edit: My cat lets the vet poke and prod her and she never hisses or complains (she once got a temp check in her rectum and she meowed a sad little cry but didn't resist or hiss). Based on the comments I've read, I'm guessing that's not usual? Guess I got lucky.
Rip my Cat Sadie. 1999-2017
Actually stayed calm while at the vet.
Her last wish was eating free whip cream while getting tested for a disease.
Died peacefully of Leukemia.
My tux female Oreo loved riding in my lap anywhere. She was pretty good at vet, cos I helped the vet visit go smoothly. On the way home, she got real excited when turning into subdivision, a couple of streets b4 we got home! They absolutely know their way home, even during a car ride.
❤️ 🐈⬛ ❤️
Those poor babies! :( If only they could understand that it's to make them better.
But I am so impressed to see how much your touch calms them both down. Wonderful! :)
My cat is always mad at me after a vet visit 😅
It's so funny to see how angry they get! My kitties are actually really good at the vet. No hisses or bites, not even fear. They just complain a little while they're manhandled by the vets. I guess I lucked out!
Kristin Laflin of my two cats, one of them is extremely hard to get into his carrier. Once at the vet though he just accepts his fate. The other one is very inquisitive and just spends her time whiffing everything.
The best sound is pursss...
Claudia Baptista It’s absolutely purrrrfect
purr*
Melanie Valkrum thats purrrfect isnt it?
Claudia Baptista pur+hissss=purssssssss

I didn't know Marmalade was a cancer survivor. Maybe that's what's drawn me to him, as I'm a cancer patient myself. (I think all of your fur-kids are great, I just happen to have an extra special feeling about Marmalade.) So glad to know he's doing well.
