How are pets screened at security?

Tuxie is flying on his first flight ever in a couple of weeks and since he is too precious to go in the cargo hold, he will be our "personal item." Will they stick him and his carrier through the X-ray machine? Do we have to take him out, hold him, stick the carrier through and put him back in? I've never flown with an animal before. How are carry-on animals treated at security?

odd, the links don't work but when I copy them into another browser they do.

By the way, Tuxie is a cat (since you can't see his pictures).
