Our Cat Packing List - To Help Reduce Your Stress!
Getting ready to travel can be stressful - too many things to remember! - so we made a cat packing list. Hopefully we have reduced your stress (at least a bit)!
Packing For Your Cat:
Cat carrier suitable for the type of trip - see our
cat carrier page
for help with hard shell or soft shell cat carriers
Food and water bowls
Supply of food for the whole trip, in case your brand is not available on the way or at your destination
Vet records, your vet's contact info, proof of vaccines
Emergency Vet clinic info for along the way or at your destination - phone numbers and addresses
Any medications or medical supplies your cat needs
Treats
A couple of favorite toys
Towels or blankets for the bottom of the carrier, plus something they like to sleep on for hotel rooms
Litter box and litter - either a regular box, litter and scoop or a disposable litter pan
Harness and leash
Depending on the length of trip, hairball remedy and brush
There is a small fan that you can get that attaches to the front gate of a hard shell cat carrier. Whether your cat would like this depends on if they like house fans blowing on them - some love it, some hate having their fur ruffled. It may be an option for a longer car trip during warmer months.
