She needs to be able to comfortably lay down and turn around in the carrier. The easier kinds are the one with a door on the front and top. Length would be nose to butt not doing the tail as it is curled mostly in carriers. Height would be feet to shoulder or head and keep in mind they are a little taker when they sit

It sounds like he has chin acne and not fleas under the chin. You can treat this with Benzoyl peroxide gel once per day until healed. Here is a link to an article on this problem in cats. ( https://www.petcoach.co/cat/condition/acne/ ) ( https://www.allivet.com/p-7689-benzoyl-peroxide-gel-5.aspx ) Yes, Feliway pheromone spray should be sprayed into the carrier at least 15 minutes prior to putting him in the carrier. It may help but it may not. It is best to just train him to accept the carrier by leaving it out all the time, using the pheromone spray and feeding him treats in there (like canned cat food). If it is out all the time he won't be alarmed when you take it out for travel. If he is very bad traveling to the vet you can always try to find a mobile vet to come to your house instead.

Any way he can stay in a bathroom or small room instead? He will be contained but not be so stressed because you can put a litterbox, water, food, toys, and bedding in there. I would worry about a small carrier overnight because he could injure himself trying to get out. I hope this helps and thank you for using Boop by Petco!

I recommend foods that follow WSAVA guidelines which includes Hill’s Science Diet, Purina, Royal Canin, Iams and Eukanuba. There is some evidence that wet food may have some health benefits - many cats do best on a combo. I would recommend using mealtime to help get her used to having he harness out on. If it’s possible to put it on in stages you could slowly get her used to it. The trick is to go slow and stop if she’s getting upset. https://www.wsava.org/WSAVA/media/Arpita-and-Emma-editorial/Selecting-the-Best-Food-for-your-Pet.pdf
