How to transport cats, recommendations

Everyone has experienced situations when the whole family needs to go on vacation or for work, but there is no one to leave their pet with. Then the question arises of how to transport it correctly so that the animal does not experience discomfort and stress.

Also, cats often need to be taken to a veterinary clinic, and everything needs to be done at the highest level so that the pet behaves calmly. Domestic cats are attached to their home and any move or going outside to an unfamiliar place is stressful for them.

Before transporting an animal, you need to prepare in advance so that the psychological stress of the pet is reduced to a minimum.

How to transport a cat without stress, recommendations:

1. In any case, no matter where you go and in what way you need a pet carrier. A box and bag are not an option; the cat may get scared and run away. You should not save money; you need to take a good plastic container with a metal door.
2. Buy a disposable diaper and put it on the bottom.
3. Carriers are popular, lined with waterproof, thick fabric. They are lightweight, compact, and do not allow light or air to pass through. They are comfortable to transport babies in.
4. Don't forget to bring your animals' veterinary passports. They indicate the vaccinations and condition of the cats. All vaccinations must be completed one month before transportation. The vaccination has been completed, the mark has been made, now you need to get a certificate from a veterinarian using form No. 1.
5. You should not feed your pet before traveling. If the road is long, then take dry food and boiled water with you. Don't forget paper and wet wipes, toilet paper and plastic bags.
6. Be prepared for the fact that you will have to pay for your pet's flight on the train or by air. The procedure and conditions for transporting animals can be clarified at the ticket office.
7. You should not let the animal out of the carrier, only as a last resort. Pets may meow loudly, try to escape from the carrier, or scratch as a result of stress. You should not show hyperattention so that she does not become capricious. Once released, it will be difficult to return the cat, otherwise the pet may run away.
8. You can purchase in advance at the pharmacy sedatives intended for animals: Fitek, cat Bayun, Vigozin. You should definitely consult a veterinarian.
