Probably a bit since the cat can (and will complain) but it's probably like taking a kid to the doctor - not fun and even if it complains, you still gotta stick that scope in its ears, etc. At least looking at the teeth would be easier, just ask!
yeah tho still unpleasant. and prolly not ideal but i'm sure some ppl could sedate before going. tho i do hear ppl talking about wearing a dog out on a walk/play time like an hour and a half before visits, my dog was friendly (tho admittedly parents never took them to the vet b/c they grew up in a poor country where they gave dogs rice and meat versus proper kibble) but i can imagine she wouldn't want shots/dislike other dogs but some would prolly be ok if they visited often enough (pay aside) to get used to the vets scent and such. tho idk how many vets own pets themselves, that'd be convenient
and begging for luxury treats after XD;
'hybrids' aside i'd expect cat assistants too like how there are emotional support animals
