Travelling with Cats and Dogs

So many people in caravan parks are amused by our cats that walk on leads and many have taken photos to send to their friends. We are often asked how the dogs and cats travel together so here's the system - people in the front seats, dogs behind on top of the large folded up crate and mattress, cats in the rear with access to the smaller crate containing kitty litter, food and water. The cats prefer to sit in a bed on top of boxes near the back window. Loading and unloading has to occur in order because Coco just has to get into the car the minute he thinks we are on the move. Max has to be lifted in and when the dogs are secured in their harnesses, the cats go in the back. Only once has a cat ventured past the dogs to get to the front seats.

Their crates, beds, coats and food take up a lot of room so we have to rationalise what we carry. They all seem happy enough - I can hear Max contentedly snoring in her crate outside the van!

  1. Hi gals. Loving the blog, what an adventure. Your current environment couldn't be further removed from the GC. Glad to read that the dogs and cats are travelling well and becoming media tarts along the way. Must have been all of those drives to northern NSW that acclimatised them. All good here apart from the loss of Ellie over the Rainbow Bridge but Toby and I are adjusting. I trust this finds you well and continue to take care and have a blast. Much love, Di

  2. The website is looking bit flashy and it catches the visitors eyes. Design is pretty simple and a good user friendly interface. double cat carrier
