Travelling on the train

4 Answers  |  Asked By: maxandchuck   1   

We just found a male cat outdoors who was abandoned. We decided to adopt him as a friend to our other adoptee, Max. We called him Chuck. He isn’t fixed and we want to get him a checkup and get his vaccines and everything. We live in a very isolated area and the only way in and out is by train. We don’t have a vet here either, so I would have to take him on the train for 6 hours one way, get him fixed, and bring him back (another 6 hours). Has anyone had any experience with having to travel on the train, and how best to prepare the cat for the voyage? I’m worried that the stress of the train ride and then the operation, than another train ride will be too much for him. Since he’s new to us, I don’t know how well he’ll be able to travel. Any advice?

you should put him in his carrying case and try not to be near a lot of people and he will not get afriad but if there are a lot of people he might get afarid and with his shot he will only feel it for a sec but he will move a lot when he sees the vet and the shot and when he gets the shot he will not be active but the next day he will feel a lot better and will be very active
