Kitty motion sickness medicine

The couple of short rides he's been on (home from ARF and back and forth to the vets once) he's been okay. He just smashes his face against the mesh of the carrier (I have a soft carrier). I honestly think he would do great snuggled in my lap. But since I'll be by myself on the trip I cannot let him out of the carrier.

If they won't give me something that's fine. I'm sure he'll be okay. I just thought if I could do something to help I would try it.

I will update after his appointment tonight (it's at 6:30). I'm curious to see how much he has grown, weight wise.

Another thing that I just thought of if they won't give you anything is to try giving him some pepcid before the trip. I've been giving Storm half a pepcid pill at night to help his tummy so this might also work to help with tummy upset during traveling. I think I'll be giving one to Storm on Sat. morning before his trip to see if it'll help. Since he's so little you'd have to ask what his dose would be and you use the regular strength not the maximum strength. Good luck at the vets.

Another great idea! Thanks!
