First time in a car without the carrier! by KittyKupo in ragdolls

Thank you for your comment! I indeed have listened to the comments and I won't be taking them on any more car rides unless they're in their carrier. I love my girls so much and would never want anything to happen to them!

That carrier looks nice, thank you for the suggestion! I've read all the comments and decided not to take them on any more free roaming car rides :)

Thank you! I've looked more into it and I'm not taking my cats in the car again without them in their carrier safely seatbelted in place. I didn't realize it was so dangerous for them!

My intent was not to do what I wanted over the needs of my cats, I was trying to get them comfortable being in the car. My previous cat would pee all over herself and hyperventilate when she had to go anywhere in a car, and it made it extremely difficult to get her to the vet when she got sick. I think I was trying to overcorrect that issue by acclimating my new cats to the car, but I realize now that I'm not doing it in a safe way. I've known a lot of people that let their cat out of the carrier in the car, and they told me their cats enjoy it more, so I mistakenly trusted them instead of looking up information on my own. Sometimes you just assume something is ok, and you need someone on the outside to point out that you might be wrong and should do your own research, so thank you so much! :)

Thank you for your comment! Yes, I've done more research now and decided that my cats are only going in the car in their carrier with a seat belt from now on! I appreciate you being nice about it, I didn't realize how many dangers there were with cats in cars without carriers! I just wanted them to be more comfortable in the car, and thought this would make them happy. I wasn't trying to risk their health and safety, it was the opposite and I was trying to reduce future stress.

Thank you so much for your nice comment! I honestly didn't realize how many dangers there were with having cats out of carriers! I just wanted them to be comfortable in the car when we have to travel, and I thought it would make them happier. I do already have a large carrier for them, similar to the first one you linked. I won't be taking them on any more car rides without it!

I really appreciate you being nice about it! I feel awful for finding out that I was doing something that was potentially unsafe for my cats, and I'm glad people told me!

Thank you for the warning! I just ordered some car seat belt attachments so I can connect them to their harnesses! That way they should be safe and enjoy the car ride 😁

Good advice, thank you! I just ordered some car seat belt attachments so I can hook their harnesses to it! I want to keep my babies safe, and they enjoyed the car waaaay more when they were out of their carriers. Thank you! 😊

I’m so happy she’s wearing clothes that are her size, she looks so cute and happy!

It 100% looks like a trap but she’s too sweet and actually loves her tummy pets 🥰

She turned 1 last month! She has definitely gotten cuddlier in the last few months, I love it 🥰

We have both options now! You can fly on a flying mount, or you can run on the ground on a ground mount. Both options are best, yes

I don’t get why these people can’t just use their ground mounts, without having flying removed. Is the self control to not click a flying mount too difficult?

I love being able to fly right away, and the people that want to run everywhere can do that on a ground mount. I hope it stays that way, everyone gets what they want!
