When I picked up Minnie from Michigan . . . it was a 9+ hour drive back to NJ. She was sooooooooo good in the cat carrier, I even made extra stops to make sure she was fine -- she slept most of the way.

However, when I picked up Sebastian from Pennsylvania, he squaked the entire 1.5 hr. drive home to New Jersey! He's gotten better when he's in the car, but he's the one who would voice his opinion about being in a moving car.

I regularly put both cats in their respective carriers and do a drive around town . . . just so they keep their travel legs [so to speak]. I must say Sebastian has learned to tolerate the ordeal quite nicely.

Good luck on your journey with your furry family.
