Be aware that some types of transportation don't allow pets unless they're service animals. Check first. If you're traveling in the U.S., be sure to use the Merial.com Vet Locator service to identify veterinarians along your route and at your destination in case an emergency arises. Just click here to register for Vet Locator, a part of the Merial.com online Pet Benefits Program. Be sure to get a copy of your pet's health records from your veterinarian, and have your pet examined if it's flying or going on a long car trip. Your veterinarian can advise you about tranquilizing your pet for certain types of travel. Familiarize your pet with its carrier or crate so it will feel at home and secure. If you're traveling or relocating internationally or even between states make sure you understand applicable rules and regulations. Identify pet friendly places to stay enroute. Try not to feed your dog or cat for about six hours before traveling to minimize the chances of car or air sickness. |
