Inhalation anesthetic. We had kitty sized masks for the cats that just wanted to hiss and spit, and we had a clear, plexiglass box for the cats that wanted to rip our faces off. Once the cat goes googly eyes, we could intubate, or just finish the procedure quickly, and get it back in a carrier to recover.

We also had a bag. It was basically a thick pillowcase with 5 zippers on it. We'd stuff the cat in, and only unzip one hole at a time.
