I'm going to collect two kittens next Monday, having never had a cat or kitten before, and therefore never having driven even five minutes up the road with a cat in a carrier. These little chaps are between 1.5 and 2 hours away, so I could do with some advice on how to make the experience as pleasant as possible - for me as well as them!
I was planning on getting a big carrier so that when they're fully grown they can travel together when necessary, and making it comfy with a couple of blankets.
What else do I need to do, or can I do? Can they 'hold on' for that length of time (they're only eight weeks old), or can they have a mini litter tray in the carrier? Or do I just resign myself to chucking the blankets in the wash as soon as we get home? Should they have a little food or water in there?
I'm mostly just hoping they'll do what any self-respecting human baby would do, and sleep all the way!
