A way of getting a cat into a carrier I've found is, wrap the cat in a blanket and then have someone else go get the carrier, so they don't know what's happening until it is too late

I tip the carrier on end, open the door, and let gravity do the work. :)

That was the only method that really worked for my first cat - an enormous stray. So now I do it by default. It seems mean, but it doesn't hurt them and any method that takes less time I think is less traumatizing. I hope?
