Tips for traveling with cats


When you have one pet You always have to think about it in a special way when you go on vacation, and although many people choose to leave them at home in the care of any friend or family member, more and more people decide to travel with them, especially if the trip is long.

Traveling with pets It is not easy but it is not as complicated as people think, so today I would like to focus on cats and how you can do to take them on a trip. Take note of these tips for traveling with cats:

- First of all, tell you that if the trip is short, it is best to stay home since it does not compensate for the hustle and bustle of taking it if it is only going to be a couple of days, especially if you have to travel by plane.

- If you are going to take it, you must ensure that it is as comfortable and safe as possible at all times, with ventilation if it is hot and warm if it is cold, especially if the trip is by plane since it will not be with you and you have to leave it prepared so that the whole trip is fine.


- Ideally, go inside a cage to make your transfers more comfortable and faster, and the size of it should be enough so that you can easily turn, lie down and get up.

- Veterinarians recommend that they be given some natural tranquilizer so that they do not have stress during the trip, especially if it is by plane since you will not see it throughout the journey.

- The feeding It is also very important to travel, and it is best not to give him anything to eat in the hours before or during the trip to avoid vomiting. The drink itself is important to drink to prevent dehydration.

- Finally, the ideal is that you accustom your cat to traveling since childhood and that from time to time you take it by car even if it is for short walks and that you know what the movement of vehicles is. When you know that you are going to take a long trip, make a few short ones beforehand and put him in the cage so that he gets used to it.
