I had a second bowl of food in the carrier for a couple of days, and luckily she went in so far back that I could close the door. She wasn't quick enough to wiggle out, so we set off right away. We didn't have any appointment, just a permission to come at any time before 4 PM, so they would have two nurses there.
It all went well, she didn't even need numbing even though one nail had punctured the pad. It was cleaned, and it has healed already.
All's well that ends well. Thank you all for sympathy from both of us.
