Its not that theyre docile, I was barely able to get one of them into the carrier with help, and it pissed in the process. Its more that in my arms theyre more afraid of everything that isnt me and if they try to escape, I can grip harder.

funnily, my mother-in-law drove us to the vet one time, and my cats puke when getting driven around. using no transport box is no option, since 2 of our cats were feral when we got them, so they know how to survive in the wild and have no issues running off into the next group of bushes.
