Love the cat photo. I have traveled with cats in a carrier, never will do that again, and also when they were transquilized, never will do that again. My favorite way to travel with cats is to let them out of their carriers after you have been traveling and let them just go where they want in the car. Mine usually lay in the back window area, and I have one that has been on the dashboard, on the passenger side. If they sleep the ride is peaceful. Good luck on your travels. I am sure it will be fine. You may want to use a harness on your cat.
