Cat Views

Years ago when we traveled across the country by car taking our cat with us, things were certainly different. She didn’t travel in a carrier; she just rode in the car. The car was an old 4-door sedan with a box of dirt on the floor of the backseat for a litter box. Although the cat was leash-trained, she refused to go anywhere except in her litter box. Travelling today with a cat is a different story altogether! We now have cat carriers, Kitty a Go-Go litter box covers, room in the back of mini vans and SUVs to place the cat and travel items, even to include a cat bed.

Some cats adjust well to travel and enjoy it while others will yowl all the way (probably thinking it is a trip to the vet). Our cat loved travelling and was especially fond of gas stations. She always wanted to get out and walk around whenever we stopped for gasoline. Usually when we passed through a state capitol we would stop and visit. She would get out of the car on her leash and parade around the grounds looking very important to gain attention from visitors and maybe a state official.
