Traveling abroad can be an exciting trip, but it can turn into a nightmare if you get robbed or become the victim of another crime. Do your best to stay safe when traveling overseas by taking some simple safety precautions both before you leave and while on your trip.
Calm a Cat to Travel
Cats are creatures of habit, and many of them are stressed out by car travel. If you have attempted to take your cat for a car ride, she may have protested by scratching, meowing, hissing or even splaying out her limbs to prevent you from putting her into a carrier. To prevent these problems in the future, you can calm your cat with different kinds of positive reinforcement and, if necessary, prescription drugs.
Travel Internationally with a Pet
According to the US Travel Association, 18 percent of US adult travelers take their pets with them when they travel. International pet travel requires some advance preparation because every country has different regulations for animal importation and exportation that change constantly. Despite the need for additional paperwork, going abroad with your animal companion is not necessarily more complicated than traveling domestically. By planning ahead, you can ensure a relaxing and enjoyable trip for you and your pet.
