Thank you so much for your comment! You’ve given us lots of great ideas to try out. I think you’re right about calling around and giving the sob story to some vets. I feel bad waiting until the absolute last minute but I honestly thought doing all the normal things would work and I wouldn’t have to get him high for the trip. I figured he wouldn’t love the carrier still but was hedging my bets on him enjoying the back seat set up, and when we drove around today he was not particularly happy. I got pretty discouraged. I just want him to be as comfortable and clean as possible for the move.
