5 6 7 [Next] - My pet has a 'travel pillow'. We got a pillow that fit in his kennel, cut it open, and sewed a zipper on it. When we travel in hot weather, we just put a plastic-covered ice pack inside. My dog looks best groomed, so I always have him trimmed up before we travel. We live in a warm climate, so travelling to a cold one in winter can be quite a shock. To keep my dog from becoming a 'dogcicle', I invaded my nephew's leftover baby clothes. Depending on your dog size, kids' jogging suits (3-6 months works well for dogs under 15 lbs!) are warm, not too bulky, and comfortable. Just remember to cut a tail hole! For his little feet, I cut the fingers off an old pair of my dad's gloves and tucked the tops into the jogging suit cuff. I'm working on sewing them on. It sounds silly, but Drago really appreciates the warmth! 21-Nov-2001 Julia ID385 - If you are planning a road trip with a dog that is not used to riding in cars, take some shorter trips to get him used to being a road warrior. You will quickly learn how he copes with motion sickness and toilet breaks. He may turn out to be a good passenger, staying put in one place and enjoying the ride. However, he might also get carsick, pee all over the seats, and howl or bark during the entire trip. 18-Jan-2008 Susie Brock ID2053 - I've noticed that cats like the same kind of music small children do. When taking my cats on trips I play classical and other 'Lullaby' music so my cats fall asleep and aren't as scared from the trip. It really mellows them down! Remember not to play too much mellow music, though, because you don't want to fall asleep yourself! 21-Apr-2001 Megan Walker ID100 - When we travel in the car with our pets for fairly long distances, we use the 'nothing in nothing out theory'. If you do not feed or water your animal right before you leave, they are less likely to need frequent stops. They are more comfortable, not needing to make frequent potty stops. 18-Dec-2003 Strawberry Farm Bed & Breakfast, Muscatine, Iowa ID976 - An odor-free pet is much more pleasant for the pet owner and others to be around, whether at home or on a trip ... Try ODOR Free at PETCO and leading pet stores.
