    I have taken my cat on trips with me a couple of times. I can’t speak for all cats, but traveling is extremely stressful for my cat. She needs to be in her carrier for many hours. Airplanes are very loud, which is also stressful. And when she arrives at the destination, she is in an unfamiliar place, which takes her days to get used to. Usually she only becomes comfortable just in time for her to go home. And while she’s there, she is around many unfamiliar people, which scares her. She usually spends the whole trip hiding under the bed.

    My wife and I have decided not to take her on trips anymore. We either just take short trips or have our neighbors kid come over and check on her a couple of times while we are gone.
