Being tied up and locked up is sometimes perceived as bad by animals – they generally do not hesitate to express themselves, which sometimes stresses the owner. That is why it is important to get your pet used to the car from a young age if possible and do not hesitate to speak gently to him during the journey: hearing your voice will calm him down.
Does he suffer from motion sickness? Note that this is the case for many of them… some simply pant more while others vomit repeatedly. All animals can be affected (dogs, cats, NACS), but some are more sensitive than others!
To alleviate these symptoms, several solutions are available: traditional medicines, Homeopathy, herbal medicine… even acupuncture! In any case, consult your veterinarian, who will recommend the most appropriate treatment for your companion.
Never leave your pet alone in the car
Even on the way to your holiday, it is out of the question to leave your pet locked in the car in the heat while you are at a motorway rest stop or having a picnic. In the car, the temperature rises very quickly to 40°C within a few minutes. A dog or cat can die in 5 minutes! », warns L. Barlerin.
