Air travel with two cats.

I am looking for an airline that allows you to bring 2 small pets cats as carry on baggage. Once your cat s flight reservation is made schedule a visit with your veterinarian close to the date of travel. They re not allowed on international routes. The airline also allows you to put two cats or two dogs in the same carrier provided they are small enough to fit.

There is no limit on the number of animals in the litter. Most allow 1 but i have not seen any that specifically say they allow 2. One female cat dog may travel with her un weaned litter if the litter is a minimum of 10 weeks old to 6 months of age. Place enticing toys and treats inside.

Successful airline travel with a cat begins long before the day of travel. 2 pets of the same breed and size between the age of 10 weeks and 6 months may be allowed to travel in 1 kennel providing they are small enough to fit into. Acquire your cat s travel carrier well in advance of your trip to allow her to become comfortable with it. Since cats are small it is advised.

Even if the airline allows two small cats in the same carrier the airline could refuse to allow your pets to travel together. Two cats per kennel allowed. Leave the air carrier open at home so your cat can enter and exit it. Answer 1 of 60.

For cats that will travel in cargo buy a sturdy airline approved cargo crate with a good door latch. One adult cat per kennel. A good travel litter box will be large enough for your cat to fit in and comfortably do their business in yet small enough to fit in their carrier see recommended larger car cat carriers above. Do your homework with the airlines.

To prepare a cat for air travel purchase an airline approved carrier and leave it out for a couple of weeks before the flight so your kitty can investigate it. If your trip isn t too far and their carrier isn t large enough to fit a litter box your travel litter box for use in the hotel can be a bit larger. Pet air travel still has a few exceptions. Only small vaccinated domestic cats and dogs at least eight weeks old up to six per flight for 95 each way can be taken on this airline when traveling on domestic flights.

Acclimate your cat to air travel over an extended period. Be prepared to have your cat s carrier go through the x ray. Avoid letting the cat out of the cage unless leashed until you reach where you. Hi i will be flying from south korea to usa come august 2011.

On the day of the flight feed your cat 4 to 6 hours before departure and avoid giving it any more food until you reach your destination.
