I wanted to chime in and thank you also. I think it's very thoughtful of you to think enough of these poor kitties to move them away from further destruction.
My only suggestion would be to carry some of the "hand sanitizer" that has been on the market in the last few years. I hope you have the same or similar over there. It's basically alcohol in a gel solution in a bottle. They claim it kills 99% of the germs out there, and this is something you could do right away instead of waiting until you get to your destination.
The way it sounds is you don't actually touch the cat itself, but the newspaper that you wrap around the cat. I can't see how that could really be a problem, but to make your husband feel better you might want to try the sanitizer stuff. You just rub it on like hand lotion and it evaporates quickly. Doesn't "clean" your hands, just sanitizes them.
Thanks again for being so thoughtful and don't let talk you out of doing it.
And it's good to hear from you again!
