Vet uses this technique to calm cats on examination table.

I think you actually know the answer to that question.

I have seen that before although I have never tried it. :thinking:

It may be a little tough to apply to a cat trying to scratch your eyes out :lol:

That seemed so good that I tried it on my very timid, often scared cat. Sure enough, the cat became completely immobile, but I think the awful little squeaking that came out of her was the same noise she made to her mother when she picked her up that same way - very quietly, maybe so a predator wouldn't hear it?

Combined with staring at me with a really pitiful look, she succeeded in making me take the clip off!

Steel 2X4 tubing works better than a wooden 2X4 for a couple of reasons.
First the steel measures a full 2X4 inches and second it's harder. I'll never admit to hitting one of my boys with one but I have chased em around when holding a steel 2X4.

Gus

That cat looked anything but calm. I think it is more of a dominance method. :thinking:
God Bless
