Hi there! You could try Feliway pheromone spray in her carrier before the trip, along with a natural calming supplement such as Zylkene or Composure. All of these can be ordered online or purchased at pet stores without a prescription.

Sully is adorable! Thanks for including a picture. I wish I could give you a simple answer to your question, but every animal is different and some require a combination of products. I would say that about 50% of the animals I try it with have a good response to Rescue Remedy, so that is often my first choice for cats (especially since it can just be added to the water). I have not used the other products, but both appear to have ingredients that could be used alone or in combination with Rescue Remedy. Don't forget that natural supplements are much more variable than medications and will not sedate, so they are sometimes not enough for a very anxious cat. I also recommend combining supplements with a Feliway Diffuser ( https://www.feliway.com ) or a Comfort Zone Diffuser ( https://www.comfortzone.com/ ) in your house. This is a calming pheromone that will work for a month. You could also consider calming music specifically for cats ( http://throughadogsear.com/tace/through-a-ca

A complete physical exam and lab work may diagnose any underlying medical condition or nutritional deficiency. If she is eating a good quality can or dry food, she is likely getting enough nutrients. Pet-tabs FF (Feline Formula) or Pet-Tabs Daily Vitamin-Mineral Supplement for Cats are options for vitamins. You can buy either from your veterinarian, online or in the local Petco. Increase playtime if possible and incorporate "automatic" toys as well as a variety of toys to keep her engaged. Correct any nipping immediately. If she stops, praise her. If she persists, stop all interaction and ignore her until she settles down. This may mean leaving the room or placing her in a different room. A pheromone product, such as Feliway Spray or plug in diffuser, may decrease any anxiety or aggression.

These special treats can be beneficial. Howeever, specific cat food for urinary problems is far superior. You should be able to buy this prescription urinary food at your vet. Another problem that makes male cats prone to urinary troubles is being overweight. !8 lbs is quite heavy and, unless your cat is a very big breed, he may be obese and needs to lose weight. Chronic cystitis/UTI is also caused by stress. If your kitty is the sensitive kind and easily stressed, you need to find potential stress factors in your environment and remedy those. Try some Feliway diffusors or spray to make your kitty more relaxed.

You should get glucosamine and SAMe tablets - they are natural supplements with scientific proof that they do something good for the joints. You should be able to get these products over-the-counter at pet shops or at the vets.
