We traveled for years with our cat, the last time when she was 19.
We would do a 26 hour drive over 3 days - to The Villages every November and back to Canada in May.
We would stay at LaQuinta Hotels.
The cat would be terribly agitated if we locked her in a carrier.
So we let her roam free with a halter and leash so we could tether her before a car door was opened.
If she could avoid the carrier, she would be happy to lie down with the dogs and sleep the time away.
