Traveling With Your Cat- If You Dare!

A friend recently sent me this link to this article about traveling with cats.  It reminded me of how many people who live with feline/felines tell me HOW much their beloved four legged  one/s  DO/DOES not like the CAR.  I have heard more stories about crying, screaming cats in cars.    I once took my young sick kitten Lena in the car for a trip to the vet’s office.  I had been using alternative medicines and she still was coughing and sneezing.  It was probably time for an antibiotic.  the vet was about 10-15 minutes from my house.  I put Lena in her carrier and buckled her into the front seat of the car.  I was trying to reassure her that she would be fine, knowing full well that she was going to get a thermometer inserted up her butt.  “It is okay Lena.  We will be there soon.  The doctor is going to make you feel better.”  I didn’t believe my own words.  Yet, I assumed that I could con my young kitty.  What a joke.  The joke was on me!!  Within a few minutes, I began to sniff a foul smell.  Yes, Lena excreted a large organic pile of feline manure.  Yes, I was full of crap and she wasn’t fooled!
