If there is a summer trip, the cat may feel unwell due to the heat and stuffiness both outside and in the car. To avoid this, it is better to travel with the animal either early in the morning or closer to the evening. When leaving the car, for example, at a gas station to a store or for coffee, it is recommended to take the animal with you on a leash and not leave it alone inside the cabin. If the cat is still overheated, then first of all it is necessary to take it out of the car to fresh air, put it in the shade and give it water to drink. Ideally, you can stop at a gas station and take the animal to an air-conditioned room. At the same time, avoid drafts and direct jets of cold air. It is advisable to put a cloth moistened with cold water on the back of the head. When the cat calms down and comes to its senses, you can continue the trip, but carefully observe the pet’s behavior and immediately show it to the veterinarian upon arrival.

Another problem that can prevent a cat from being transported in a car without stress is the animal’s susceptibility to motion sickness. That is why a few hours before the trip, the cat stops being fed and tries not to give food on a short journey. But if the pet is motion sick, then at the first signs (rapid breathing, open mouth, nausea), you should stop the car and take the animal out into the air. And give a motion sickness drug along with water.

To minimize the possibility of other problems with transporting a cat in a car, you can pre-drip a sedative or very weak sleeping pill prescribed by a veterinarian into the animal’s drink. Well, of course, it is important to follow the rule – transporting the animal will be successful if you approach its organization responsibly and think through every stage.

A list of what you need to take with you to transport a cat in a car:

• Harness or collar with a leash, depending on which ammunition the pet is used to;
• Litter both in the container and on the seat, if stops are planned;
• Automatic drinker on the road;
• A small amount of feed if the trip is longer than 4-5 hours;
• Favorite toy to distract the animal if it suddenly gets nervous;
• Medicines, for example, sedative drops or motion sickness drugs, just in case;
• Documents for the animal, as you can never predict whether you will need a veterinary passport on the trip, even without crossing the border. Therefore, when transporting, the owner must always have a set of documents for his pet in the car.
