So I had this writhing ball of needles in my arms, half-wrapped in a towel and tangled in a floor length curtain, smeared with shit and piss, and a hire car driver beeping his horn outside. I thought I was going to have to tear the fucking curtain off the wall to get the cat in the carrier
sorry I know it's not funny but this had me wiping tears from my eyes
The first time I tried to wrap my frightened old stray in a towel, he hid from me behind a curtain and expelled everything that was in his bladder and his bowels there, and when I got the towel sort of around him, he sunk his claws into the curtain.

I did eventually, with practice, figure out a relatively painless method for catching him, but JFC.
