As to the cat door to the garage, most cats will run back into the house the second the door starts to open -- garage doors are not quiet. I know of several people who have done it, both here and in California. I would never do it because garages really get hot during the summer and cat litter stinks! But, this is a personal choice.

Good luck on your sale. However you decide to travel with your kitties, I think you'll be surprised as to how tolerable it is after the first hour or so.

RW: Use some silicon spray every month or so on the garage door tracks and rollers and it will cut down on the noise and make the door operate easier.

(all cats in TV need to be strictly indoor cats)
