A woman from Pennsylvania had a funny surprise at a vet visit. Kylie Banister took her cat, Charlie Chaplain, for an appointment. When she opened the carrier, she found her other cat, Mabel, inside too. Banister shared the incident in a TikTok video that has gone viral. In the video, she expressed her shock at discovering both cats in the carrier. "I was definitely shocked because Mabel didn't meow the entire ride," she told Newsweek. Charlie was the only one making noise. Mabel's surprise appearance amused the veterinary staff. They joked about the two cats getting along well. Instead of sending Mabel back home, Banister let her stay for the appointment. Mabel just settled in and looked around. VCA Animal Hospitals offers advice for cat owners struggling to transport their pets. They suggest keeping the carrier out often, so cats feel at home in it. Giving them treats and toys can also help. Banister's TikTok video was well-received, with many viewers finding it amusing. Commenters shared their own experiences with cats and offered tips. She said she couldn't believe what happened and appreciated the helpful comments from other cat owners.
