A friend had their cat in the carrier when it came apart.

The tips are all good. It was before the internet, so I could not research where to stay. It was hit or miss, as I drove down the highway. Some places I sneaked the cat inside! I did not get caught! One thing you should not try which I did. I decided to let the cat outside at a rest stop, and hitch him to the car bumper like a horse. He got loose and was walking around the parking lot meowing, but I quickly scooped him up, and did not try that stupid thing again!Greg_1948 in_WAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01880031331838100123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182681216854437149.post-61517859671576677262014-02-23T07:47:08.494-05:002014-02-23T07:47:08.494-05:00Great tips!

With my first cat (Bobo), I NEVER left it out and the minute he saw that carrier come out he would take off and hide under the bed. MANY vet trips were cancelled as a result lol. With Cody, I have ALWAYS left it out (and still do). I keep a blanket in it, I leave the door open, I have even given him treats in it. He uses it to rest and relax in and since he sees it out every day he never knows when a trip to the vet is in his future :) It is one of the best tips ever!Cat and DOG Chat With Carenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02666719374831725417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182681216854437149.post-5552374542547024802014-02-22T18:12:58.705-05:002014-02-22T18:12:58.705-05:00Well, that's great!!

Harnesses and leashes are great but don't offer a sense of comfort, protection or privacy in the event something unexpected were to take place.

He had a bad eye and we were going weekly to the vet, sometimes more for a long time so he is terrified of the carrier now. He sees or hears it and he freaks out. <br />Sue Bkatsrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13071353967222221634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182681216854437149.post-77777380229283703352014-02-22T12:24:25.576-05:002014-02-22T12:24:25.576-05:00Thank you so much for sharing!!
