While I was in the military I drove cross country several times with my doxy in my lap, you got your babies in their seatbelts and kennel - WHOOHOO‼️‼️‼️ Always good to have a copilot - great friends.

You and Fatty gave me the hardest laugh which I much needed. I'm am very familiar with trying to get meds in my feline fur babies. Try wrapping him in a towel next time. It works like a charm, but of course it won't be as comedic to the viewers. You will love your cross country travel. I did it for the first time last year with my mom. It was an experience of a lifetime. Canada to Alaska is my next dream trip. Glad I just found your channel. I'm enjoying it. You remind me of me a little.

[@BigStizzie]

@@darlenekeene755 Oh snap! 🙀 I can’t wait to try this towel technique. Thanks for the tip! Was it a one way or round trip journey with your Mom? What were your favorite places? When are you planning the Canada to Alaska trip?

[@darlenekeene755]

@@BigStizzie we did round trip and a month was still not enough. Mom is 87 so we are getting in as much as we can. We started on East coast and went west. Went to all states, but Washington, Oregon, and Vermont (because of flooding during our time in the Northeast). Noted you said relocating in PA. Big difference from Nevada. I have many favorites, really loved Idaho, Utah, and Montana. I love the great outdoors. I have a channel also called "The Only Thing Greater". I used a lot of my pics as thumbnails. Mom's health has been challenging for past couple of months so Alaska trip is on hold until next year at least. Hoping mom can enjoy trip with me

[@darlenekeene755]

Oh I did the cross country trip with two dogs and two cats fur babies and they all loved it. The cats really settled in the longer we traveled, but they stayed underneath the dogs. We did it over a month since I did all the driving.

[@BigStizzie]

@@darlenekeene755 I hope my cat will begin to settle down at some point. I think he started to understand the routine (drive for 2hrs/rest for 30-45 mins) but he complained the whole time

[@darlenekeene755]

@@BigStizzie my cats love the bed with the dogs as we travel and sometimes they will get in the dog beds.

Hello, Stizze they make a stick pad for RVs to keep things from moving around while you are driving. I know that could be a lots of work doing that every time you have to travel.

[@rare2find0918]

Hey Stizz and the fur babies! As far as giving the cat the meds (pills), do you think he'd eat them if you put the med inside one of those 'Greenies brand-feline pill pockets'? Might be worth a shot, they come in a few different flavors.

[@BigStizzie]

@@rare2find0918 I didn’t try the pill pockets yet but I did start feeding the meds with tuna. Wet food will always be on board during travel days FOR SURE!

Girl, I screamed when you said the roads in AZ are effed up... You have NO IDEA... I know just what road had your butt tore out the frame too... That one going into Kingman. That road has actually torn people's axles off their rigs. And the rest of AZ is no better. It feels like a third world country driving around that state.

[@J_Unit_A1398]

That explains why my trip to Sedona was rough 😅😂

[@BigStizzie]

@@CS-uc2oh The AZ roads were definitely the worst of all the states we drove through. It doesn’t shock me to hear that they have caused damaged to vehicles cuz I was worried for the Majestic!

[@Beencouraged777]

[@BigStizzie]

@@Beencouraged777 😂😂😂

[@catc6188]

Waiting to Exhale! Roads in New Mexico can be rough too. We drove from NV to see my niece in Truth or Consequences and not only was the road rough but the big rig ahead of us, mind you, as a rule we keep our distance behind vehicles to avoid windshield dings, our upper window on the camper was shattered. We didn’t even know it until we reached our destination.

[@Vegmadeasy]

From one cat parent to another. You can check with the vet if you're unsure about my recommendations. Cats are carried by their moms behind their neck. It helps to pinch up the extra skin and hold their head back to give them meds. But they make tastier treats that your cat and dog can have that they may think is just a treat. It's sold at Walmart ,pet stores, and online. The name is Zesty Pet it has ashwagandha in it and other herbal ingredients that relax pets. Also you can order or walk into your local smoke shop and pick up pet CBD.

[@BigStizzie]

@@Vegmadeasy I recently purchased some pet CBD and that will be used for the next trip. I’m also down to try all these other techniques because I’m determined to turn this cat into a traveling-loving nomadic feline! Thanks for all the advice 😺
