Does anyone elses cat get car sick on windy roads?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
My cat gets sick on windy roads. She foams at the mouth and will poop in her carrier.

I've managed to avoid windy roads...but I'm going to the mountains soon and I must take a windy road...can I do anything to prevent this?

The way up won't be bad because I can clean up the box right after, but if she poops at the beginning of the trip (the way home) it would suck to drive with a poopy cat for 3 hours!

How unfortunate. I think maybe most of us just don't have experience driving on windy roads with cats. Maybe driving slow would help so the turns don't seem so severe? I only ever put my cat in the car for vet visits and the road there isn't windy at all.

I hope you find a solution for you and kitty.

Some cat just don't travel well at all. I have show cats and know several people whose cats throw up and poop on the way to every show, they just clean them up at the other end.
They use a large dog crate which fits a litter pan, and keep the windows open

Hmm...I never thought of that.

I was hoping I could give her something, but I guess not. Maybe I'll try and call the vet but I don't know if they'll have anything.
