It’s easy to see that reaction and assume traveling with your cat just isn’t realistic. But often the problem starts earlier than the car, the train or the airport. The carrier itself may already predict stress, confinement or an unfamiliar destination.
That’s why cat travel training often begins by making the carrier feel ordinary again, before asking for bigger steps.
If you’re not sure where your cat’s travel stress actually begins, I made a free Cat Travel Readiness Score to help you find the first skill to work on.
