Transport Tips For Cat Owners: Keep your carrier where your cat can investigate it and sleep in it. Top-loading, plastic carriers can be easier to place a struggling cat into. Use a small to medium size carrier so your cat doesn't slide around in it. Line the carrier with a blanket, sprinkle catnip or toss in a few treats & place your cat into it feet-first. Cover it with a towel if your cat is very nervous, then play soft music & talk soothingly to reassure your cat while you drive.
