We normally talk about traveling with your dog. Today we are going to talk about traveling with a cat.

Traveling with a cat is not the same as with a dog. Cats love to hide and will get under anything they can. Having a cat travel in a car without being  placed in a cat carrier is asking for trouble. They can get trapped under the gas pedal or even try to wiggle their way under the dashboard. Cats must be secured in a sturdy cat carrier during a road trip. Here are some supplies that you should keep in your car for the trip.

• Bottled Water and a no spill bowl.
• Dry food, a small bowl and treats.
• Favorite toys
• A comfortable, familiar blanket
• A leash, spare collar with ID Tags and a reachable phone number
• Cat first aid kit
• Travel litter box. They sell throwaway litter boxes in the supermarket.
• Non prescription calming medicine such s Rescue Remedy
• Photo of you cat in case she gets lost
• Your cats medical records
• Paper towel rolls and plastic bags

It’s better to be well prepared for any road trip with you cat.

Remember, your pets count!
