Thinking a cage would be good in the backset of the car.
Really wondering how they will drink, eat and poop.
They are indoor cats and one of them is really skittish.

Anyone been through this and could give some suggestions.

Thanks,

Our guy, Harley Cat, did surprisingly well, hadn't been in a car for years. He is 10 years old. Now what may have helped is that we had to board him for a few days before we left, so he was glad to see us. Had a medium size dog crate so he had room. Put in a small litter box and took a lot of catnip. He yelled for about 1/2 hour and then was fine. Frankly, I was shocked he did so well!
