Essential knowledge for safe transportation of pet cats

Scottish Fold Cat

  1. Use a carrier

  Generally speaking, using a pet carrier is the most common method, with travel crates being the most popular. However, just having a travel crate is not enough; securing it is the key. In the event of an accident or sudden brake, an unsecured crate will be thrown forward due to inertia, posing a significant threat to both front passengers and the pet inside. A new device can attach a to a seatbelt, effectively preventing the dog from being thrown forward during sudden stops or collisions.

  2. Car pet hygiene mats

   can stand, sit, or lie down inside a car, but they must never roam freely. These hygiene mats protect your vehicle’s leather seats from being scratched by pet claws. Additionally, these mats are waterproof, which means if your pet vomits or urinates during a long trip because of motion sickness, your car interior won’t get messy. Secure the hygiene mat between the front and rear seats, then place your pet on it and use a collar leash fastened to the headrest. The length should be adjusted properly to ensure the pet can sit, stand, or lie down comfortably without being too tight.

  3. Do not let stick to the windows

  If a cat inhales a large amount of cold air directly, its nose and respiratory tract can be damaged. Even worse, some cats may accidentally touch the power window switch; many car models’ rear windows lack anti-pinch functions, which could trap and seriously harm the cat. Therefore, it is safer to keep them quietly inside the car.

  Many pet owners face such troubles: they want to drive with their pets during holidays, but their cat’s claws scratch the leather seats, and motion-sick cats may vomit. Using pet car mats solves these problems. Because pet mats use waterproof coating materials, they repel water and hair, so you don’t have to worry about carsickness vomiting or pets bringing mud into the car after playing wildly.
