My Cat Hates Road Trips (But Here We Are)
Ever tried explaining turbulence to a cat? Yeah, me neither—until last summer. Turns out, my feline roommate, Luna, has strong opinions about both car rides and airplane cabins. She voices them loudly. But hey, pets are family, and leaving her behind wasn’t an option.
Here’s what I learned: snacks are currency, portable litter boxes are a must, and your pet’s favorite toy is basically emotional support (for both of you). Also, don’t trust the carrier’s zipper. Luna Houdini’d her way out at a rest stop in Nebraska. Cue the heart attack.
If you’re planning a trip with your furry (or scaly, or feathery) sidekick, prep like you’re moving countries. Double-check the rules, pack more treats than you think you’ll need, and accept that you’ll both be a little stressed. But honestly? The memories (and the stories) are worth every meow and bark.
