I know dogs like car trips because my dogs enjoys it very well but I don't understand why it's different with my cat. He hates cat trip so much because it makes him car sick. The first time I witnessed it, he was vomiting. I thought he was sick but when I got to the vet, it wasn't what I thought.

Does your cat get car sick? How do you deal with this when you need to take your cat to see the vet?
 
My cat was a strong pet for me. So many times that we have boarded taxi and cars, I didn't feel the vomiting from her or any change from her. I think she isn't allergic to that.
 
I thought it's only human beings that get car sick. I never knew it happens to cats and other animals too. It's my first time of hearing about it. My kittens never experienced it.
 
I don’t take Zoey to most places I go to. And they are mostly work and family visits, she does well when left on her own so I never bother. I guess I will have to take out to know.
 
Nope. None of my cats have that. Is that a thing for cats? Well they are mostly at home so, it shouldn't be a big issue.

I do know that what caused the car sick was too much of air flow inside our stomach. Maybe that's why the cats that look sick can't breath very well because there was a blockage of air in their system.

When you're taking your cats to see their vet, how do you get them there? Do you have their vet come visit you at home?
 
Zoey behaves like canine sometimes, it surprises me. When I’m driving she sticks her head out of the window. She likes car rides so much and is always hyperactive.

I take them to the vets actually. But I have never noticed a trait like that in them while on transit.
 
I don't know animals like cats or dogs or even any other kind of pets can get car sick. I wouldn't find it easy to manage taking my cats to their vet when they are culpable of being car sick. I can't walk them to their vet.

You can give them a toy that can take their mind off the fact that they are in the car. It often helps.

You will only know if they are car sick is when you do the driving with them. When they get car sick, the only way is to make sure that their vet visit them if you can't take them to the vet.
 
My cats enjoys car rides. They love it more than my dogs which is very surprising. Dogs are meant to be the outing and road trip type but my cats love it more.

Well the trip is not exactly peculiar to any pet. But I feel the cats enjoy it more because they rarely go out. So when you do take them out they find it amusing.
 
The probably do but I'm not sure because I'm not the one who normally takes them to their vet. I call their vet and he comes to pick them up and take them to his office.
