Fear and bad associations like vet visits, motion sickness, and loud noises can cause pet travel anxiety in cars and planes. Cats and dogs can experience anxiety in different ways.
“I will just say that travel anxiety is very common amongst pets, whether it is car or air travel,” says board-certified veterinary behaviorist Rachel Malamed.
Cats and dogs may link automobile rides with vet visits, causing worry. Cats are more prone to motion sickness and driving anxiety than dogs, which are socialized to like car drives.
Cat motion sickness is characterized by profuse drooling, vomiting, howling, and restlessness, according to VCA Animal Hospitals.
Hair loss, excessive grooming or lip licking, hostility or irritability, hiding or avoiding social interaction, and activity level changes may indicate cat uneasiness over car travels.
Some canines dislike vehicle rides too. Dog anxiety is often caused by dread and aversion to car journeys. Cats and dogs experience inappropriate elimination due to nervousness.
Corn? Yes, actually! There's a better alternative to frozen corn on the cob. Individually freeze sweet corn kernels. Fans say it brings out the sweetness, and they're the ideal size for a few bites.
