Anyone have a road-loving housecat?
I've contemplated getting a cat but know they aren't fond of traveling. And how do you know if the cat you get is one that can cope with the traveling? I don't move that often but don't like the idea...

We full-time with 2 cats. We got them as kittens and they overwhelmed an older cat, so we took her to our DD's to live out her retirement.
They don't like the walk from the 5er to the Truck, but once in their soft-sided cage, they usually settle in for the day's trip. Sleeping, cleaning each other or meowing for a scratch.
Ours don't like to eat or drink (or use the litter box) on the road, so we don't like to drive much longer than 4-6 hrs. Once we stop and set back up for the night or for a few months, they sniff around the RV and then go jump on their cat tree to look out the window and see what bugs, birds or people are doing outside.
They make great traveling companions.
