Traveling with your cat during summer vacation

by Lilou Bastet

Travel arrangements
Before you leave, make sure your cat is up to date with its vaccinations and anti-parasitic treatments. Schedule a visit to the vet for a routine check-up and specific travel advice.

Secure transportation
Use a sturdy, well-ventilated shipping crate. Place a blanket or familiar toy there to reassure your cat during the journey.

Hydration and diet
Pack fresh water and kibble for your cat. Take regular breaks to allow him to eat and drink, especially during long car journeys.
