The last time you carried an animal, what was the reason you did it?

To hand the cutest cat ever to her owner.  This cat is a constant delight with her quirky personality and very small size. 

To bring it to its food. 
My little cat has dementia. He has to watch me set his food down or he doesnt know its there.  This morning he watched me hold his bowl, but decided to go around a dresser to get to it.  I had to set the food down and attend to the other cat before he saw me set it down.  He ran out into the kitchen and cried for his food.  I had to pick him up and set him in front of the bowl.  Halfway through eating it he forgot what he was doing and walked away.  When I put the bowl in front of him, he thought it was another bowl of food and eagerly ate it.  Sometimes he forgets what he's doing while in the litter box.  Poor kitty.

One of my sister's dogs developed an inability to fully use his hind legs.  When i saw him having trouble going up and down the stairs on the deck to do his business, I carried him down and then back up when he was done. This post was edited by SpunkySenior at September 23, 2021 3:50 PM MDT

I picked up (snatched) my cat to take her inside.

He was a wee family member.

A frog, in its tank, while moving last week.
