They are the same vets on both pictures. Clearly not all cats are easily handled, even when doing everything right, especially if they need multiple tests that can't be contained to a very short period.

My poor recently passed old girl was like that. She might be good for about 15m if they knew how to keep her distracted. But after that, it was a war every time.

The cats are even in the same room at the same time. Only vet I’ve ever had that does that, but it has seemed to help calm the cats comparatively to being alone.
