How to travel with 2 adult cats?

Well my friend is in the process of moving countries at the moment and she has 2 adult cats.

She's consulted with various vets, and the consensus was that once they get to the new country (I won't bore you with the whole procedure of actually taking cats overseas), then she needs to keep them in one room of the house for about 3 weeks. Make sure they have food, water, litterbox and toys in that room (preferable something they already own and like).

Keep them in the room for about 3 weeks, to let them getting their bearings again and to feel comfortable there.

After 3 weeks, open the door and let them roam around the house (at their own pace, whenever they feel comfortable).

Make sure all the windows and doors are closed. Make sure they can always return to that "first" room where they will feel safest. Eventually they will be able to roam through the house more calmly and get used to the new place.

When i moved houses, my cat wouldn't come out from under the bed for a week! Eventually she came out (its important not to force them and to let them do it at their own pace) and now, once again, she's Queen of the Castle... she rules the house!!!!

I'm sorry i can't help you out with hotels, i don't know of any. But i'm sure if you google it, you'll probably find something. Or maybe u should call the hotels and ask. Once in the hotel, again, make sure all the doors and windows are closed so that they won't run away.

Good luck and i wish you and your cats well in your move :-)

Wow, that's a hard one since you forgot to tell us where you're traveling. The AAA has a book that lists all the hotels in the country and canada that accept pets. If you're not a member, perhaps a friend is and could get it for you. As a member it costs nothing. As for 2 adult cats, which I've made short trips with, the complaining finally ends after a while and they quit whining. But be sure to take all their familiar things with you, bowls, food, litter box so that they don't feel like everything is strange. In the hotel room I become concerned because it is strange surroundings and you might want to monitor them, let them eat, use the box, and then confine them in their carrier where they will feel safer for the night. Letting them loose in the room might cause problems for both of you. Cats get scared and tend to find small spaces to hide and in the morning you just might not be able to get them out. Good traveling.

trust something above submit suggested...i did not study all of it. counting on temperature(above or below a particular quantity), the airline gained't fly the animal. you would possibly want to decide on to envision on that earlier you decide on one component. inspite of the actual incontrovertible actuality that, it should not be too undesirable proper now. they don't love you to sedate them consequently; your animal might want to die! Sedatives decrease the blood stress; hence, lowering the middle price. At extreme altitudes, it really is an issue. you decide on on the right for you puppy, proper? also, save in m,ind that if the cats are in shipment carry, it truly is not pressurized for convenience. Are you going to force or fly? Are they leash experienced in any respect? if you're diving, it can't be a foul theory to have them with you. certain, it will be a protracted holiday, yet you may let them relax contained in the motor vehicle....understanding you're there with them. EDIT: Now that I study something else of the submit. Temperature themes DO word if animal is flown as shipment(lower than the airplane)! the reason being because they couldn't insure how lengthy the animal will be sitting outdoors contained in the elements(severe warmth or chilly) earlier they're loaded onto yet another airplane. it really is why the temperature regulations are there!
