Be careful to use a flight box or cat carrier when cats ride in a private car. Placing the cat in the flight box or cat carrier can prevent the cat from running around in the car, ensure safety, and reduce the cat's stress response.

Prepare the cat's necessities, including cat litter, food, water and enough first aid medicine. It is recommended to stop eating and drinking for eight hours before departure to reduce gastrointestinal pressure and symptoms of motion sickness. Pay attention to the problem of motion sickness in cats. If the cat is prone to motion sickness, you can give the cat special motion sickness medicine half an hour in advance.

You also need to check the cat’s status when getting in and out of the car to ensure that the cat will not escape after the car door is closed. It is best to conduct a health check before taking the cat on a long trip to ensure that the cat is suitable for travel.
