Good luck with your move. Two of my three cats travel well...but Bo is another story. He throws up within the first 15 minutes (I carry a large spoon and wet washcloth to clean the car upholstery. LOL) and then he usually has diarrhea so litter box must be easily accessible. I know it's not safest but my cats have free range of the car - they're not in carriers. (I don't want Bo to be stuck in a carrier with his tossed cookies and diarrhea by-product. Yuck.)
The vet suggested a quarter of a Dramamine pill for Bo to settle his nerves and stomach (half an hour before hitting the road.) Only tried it once - never even got the pill in him. I first tried hiding it in food but apparently Dramamine is very bitter and needs to be popped down his throat, but by that time the fight was on and Bo won.
The babes and I made our semi-annual trip to Ohio last week - after the anticipated upset tummy, Bo settled down quite nicely - although he was his usual big baby on the trip back and cried and whined for about three hours. So my suggestions to you - 1/4 Dramamine pill, ear plugs, and good luck!
