Have you tried the gravity method? Tip the carrier on end so the opening on the top, put one hand under the cat's tush and one under the front paws, and lower the cat in? Or, if need be, firmly wrap cat in old towel and lower cat into carrier. When you are lowering them down rather than pushing them in, it's much hard for them to get purchase with their paws/claws and run.
