Traveling is a common trigger for stress in cats because they are not conditioned positively to travel.

Cats are rarely impressed by travelling and it can cause much anxiety. Calming supplements or royal canin calm food can be very helpful, as can pheromone products. Familiar food, toys and bedding are helpful also

Charlie should be able to tolerate a very large dog style crate or a cat condo for days to a week or so. Cats often stay in similar sized cages while boarding, however be aware that cats confined will need litter changed several times daily and he would benefit from interactive toys. If possible, he may do better if allowed to be closed into a room vs a crate. Other options may be long term boarding if needed, if there is a cat facility near you with larger cages/condos available. A cat condo that might work better than a crate: https://www.amazon.com/Prevue-Pet-Products-Premium-Deluxe/dp/B015RRSZXO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522461943&sr=8-1&keywords=cat+condo+cage The larger the area Charlie has and the more toys/interaction that Charlie has will make confinement less difficult on him. Be sure to monitor him for signs of stress such as not eating, going outside the literbox or excessive grooming. I hope this helps. Good Luck and thank you for using Boop by Petco

For that long of a ride, I would highly recommend the use of a carrier. Although free roaming may seem like it would make your kitty more comfortable, giving a cat a secure, small, and dark location is something the best thing you can do for them. It will allow it to relax more easily, which is exactly what cats want to do in unusual and out of the ordinary situations like the one it is about to experience. I would also recommend using a product like Feliway, a feline pheromone product that can be placed inside the carrier or in the car. It has a calming effect on many kitties. Lastly, there are drugs that can be used for events such as this that will calm your kitty down for a few hours if you think that might be necessary. They are generally safe and pretty effective. Hope this helps.

Hello. If you have the time, you might want to condition Jupiter to the car. If time is limited, placing him in a carrier ( making sure he is comfortable in a carrier ), putting the carrier on the floor & covering the carrier with a light sheet might soothe his anxiety. Do make sure you have an ID tag on him is case something happens. Thanks for contacting Boop by Petco.
