🐾 Spray your cat’s carrier with the synthetic pheromone, Feliway.
🐾 If your cat is a foodie, use a favourite snack to attract her into the carrier, .
🐾 If your cat is very stressed, discuss medication such as Gabapentin with your veterinarian. Gabapentin can make the trip less stressful for everyone.
