1. Carrier - An airline approved crate would be a good
choice. Choose a big enough one so your cat can stand up
and turn around and not much more.
2. ID, Leash and harness - A frightened cat can be hard
to hold onto. So if he should get loose at least he won't go any further than the end of the leash.
3. Litter box and filler - For traveling the clumping
litter would probably be easier and more practical, since it can be disposed of in the toilet.
4. Food, Water and bowls - Take their everyday bowls so it will somewhat feel like home.
5. Toys - Don't forget some of their favorite toys. Some that you both can play with (like a feather or ball on a stick) cause what else are you going to do in a motel room just in case it rains, but keep you and your cat amused.
Hope these little hints will help you and your pet have a fun-filled vacation.
Have you ever wondered which is safer: a collar or harness restraint when your dog is traveling with you in the car? A harness system will better protect your dog from injury. During a sudden stop all of your dog's weight will be transferred to the neck if he is wearing a collar. A harness will distribute the force more evenly over the thorax and help minimize injury to your pet
