Feline Travel Checklist

Before traveling with your cat make sure you go over this check list:

- have a vet exam the cat to make sure the cat is healthy to travel;
- get a vaccination record as per the requirement of the country you will visit;
- get a well-ventilated pet carrier and get the cat used to it at least few days before the trip;
- have a pet carrier pad in case the kitty has to "use the litter box";
- do not feed the cat 6-8 hours before the flight to avoid an upset stomach;
- avoid tranquilizers since they block the respiratory system.
