Winston's first Big Car Journey!

[IrishKitty]

We are taking a trip to visit family on the West Coast, this weekend coming!

It should take about 3.5 hours to get there so this will be Winston's first big car journey (apart from his trip from the breeders house which was 1.5 hr).

Hopefully he will enjoy the trip.

Good luck with Winston and his first long car trip! I hope everything will be ok and he won't be too stressed about it. Let us know how he experienced it!
And above all: enjoy the weekend on the West Coast with the family!

Goodluck Dee! I'm sure he will be fine going by how he was when you picked him up from the breeders. Hank was great in the car today, we took him to the vets for a check up and he was not worried at all, even slept all the way home!Enjoy your trip! And let us know how you get on

[IrishKitty]

Thank you both. Hopefully he will sleep like a baby

Great that hank is travelling well in the car!

Good luck with the journey - let us know how he is. I hate long car rides - from years of going on holiday with three screaming kids in the back - think it put me off for life! Now if I go anywhere I have two howling dogs instead which is slightly easier on the ears than the kids - think a cat sounds easy in comparison

Hope all goes well
Storvenn isnt so keen on car journeys. Well.. when I say that what i mean is, isnt so keen on being in a carrier. If we ever think about going to shows, Im gonna make/buy him a larger safe area / carrier for the back of the car.

Im sure Winston will be fine

[Scrapdragon]

Good luck.
I'm still tossing up on how to get my kitten when he's ready. It's an 8 hour drive, but I'm thinking I might organise a carrier to bring him down on the plane which is only 1 1/2 hours as I'm worried he will get overly stressed.

Okay folks as some of you know I had to postpone the "big car journey" a few weeks ago, but it's back on track.
We leave early in the morning so won't be online for a few days!

I'll report back next week to let you know how "the big trip" went

Good luck - hope it all goes well

we had a 2 hour journey to bring Fudge back. Luckily for us our estate car has a built in dog guard so we put it up, put her a bed in the back and she had the whole of the boot to herself. Had no problems! However, in a basket on the way to the vets (0.25m) she did not like it at all!
