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.
