You want to keep the cats in separate carriers - do NOT let them ride loose in the car when driving.<br><br>The most we've gone was a 6 hr drive (cat show). We stop every few hrs and get out and walk around; allowing Charlie to have time to walk and stretch inside the car. Usually if we stop for more then 1/2 hour (eating) we'll let him out during that time.<br><br>You also need the time for the cats to be out and use a litter pan and eat and drink - that's why you do this when you are eating supper. Do no sedate the cats.Sat, 21 Jun 2008 06:29:30 GMTOcimomhttp://board.catchannel.com/Topic35162-25-1.aspxI'm moving from Wisconsin to Texas in the fall, and I was just curious what would be the best possible way to transport my two cats across the country. I have harnesses for both of them and carriers. I wasn't planning on stopping anywhere and staying the night, considering the drive is going to be about 18 hours and I want this trip to be as stress-free as possible. Any advice would be welcome and appreciated! <img align="absmiddle" src="http://board.catchannel.com/Skins/Cat Channel/Images/EmotIcons/BigGrin.gif" border="0" title="BigGrin">Thu, 19 Jun 2008 19:02:19 GMTlarthawyn
