Weaver Gal,
That's a cool rig for your little travelers. Our "Louie" doesn't travel well. Even for the fairly short hop to the vet, from the moment I put his carrier on the car seat in the Camaro or the back of the SUV, he starts meowling... LOUDLY, until we park. However, I have learned ONE thing. On the way home, and after he has suffered the combined pain and indignity of an injection and a rectal temperature probe, no matter how loudly, OR continuously, he howls......never feel sorry/guilty about his being "caged" and OPEN THE CARRIER DOOR WHILE DRIVING!!  I created a freaking TAN/BROWN TORNADO! After five hundred circuits around the inside of my Camaro with several pauses to stand on the seat with paws on the window ledge (closed, of course) to get "re-freaked" by the world whizzing past his nose, he finally settled down. Well, physically, at least. The 2002 Camaro has a huge, slanted windshield, and thus, a huge, DEEP dashboard. Louie plopped down on the dash, directly on the other side of the steering wheel, and GLARED at me all the rest of the way home, tail lashing back and forth much like the windshield wipers do when activated.... Upon arrival at HIS house, he stepped regally down from HIS car and into HIS dining area. I later discovered that somewhere during his many laps around the inside of the car he found time to leave three small, dark brown "tootsie rolls" in the "trunk area" under the hatch. Fortunately, I found them before they "ripened"..... I haven't stopped laughing yet.... guess you could say I scared the.... (No, I won't go there)... Sweetwater Jack

Jack,
One of my cats is a horrid traveler. I used to put him in the car, drive around the block, take him back to the house, and wash the runny...off him. Last time, I got tranquilizers for him. We made it to the vet and back with no accidents.
