I'll be moving on Saturday morning with my two cats & I'm not sure what I need to do about preparing them for the travel. I'll be traveling about 75 to 80 miles (approx. 1 hr & 15 minutes)& they've never traveled more than a couple miles to the Vets office. Neither of them really like being in the car...lots of yowling & crying. I have 2 pet carriers, but only one has a attachable food/water dish. What should I do about litter boxes? I thought about putting a tarp or something down, so if they do get the poop scared out of them it won't get all over my car.
Dumb question...but should I put their carriers on the floor behind my front seats or should I put them on the back seat? I've always sat the carriers on the seat, but I've always wondered about buckling them in some how. Is that safe to buckle them in? I'm praying that I don't get into an accident on the way, but I want to make sure that they are safe in case if that happens.
Any ideas or suggestions? I'd appreciate anything at this point since I'm clueless about traveling with kitties. Thanks!
