This is a topic I haven't seen covered yet. I know chams get easily stressed and I don't feel comfortable just sticking her in a box for a visit to the vet.

Whats the best way to transport them for the ride to a vet? Do I need to make a mini cage?
 
To transport Butter home I put a small pathos plant in a "kritter keeper" and sprayed the plant before I put it in the keeper. Butter seemed quite content.
 
The clear plastic Cricket Keepers do work great. You have to get one the right size. I put something absorbent on the bottom. Vet trips always seem to stimulate the poop process (great for a fresh fecal). For monster panthers I use a small Rubber Maid tub with a lid. I poke holes in the lid. I put a hand towel on the bottom of those. The darkness of those containers make the monsters nestle into the towel and fall asleep. There will be a certain amount of stress no matter what you do. They will survive it just fine :)
