Our 3 Airstream kitties

We travel with 3 cats. They like the Airstream when it is tied up somewhere.

I lost my walk-on-a-leash Japanese Bobtail cat 3 months ago to liver cancer. I replaced her with a Pixie-bob kitten. Pixie-bobs love to travel and walk on a leash.

Here is my new Pixie-bob at her first Airstream rally. The two older cats are both Munchkin boys and are quite shy. When under way, the cats ride in carriers in the back seat. Much safer that way.

The kitty in posts 74-76 died 12/12/2014.
We adopted a new travelin' kitty. She has been on one camping trip. I am no longer a contributing member so I can't post pictures.

In Texas, even people can legally ride in a trailer if they are in a part of the trailer designed for human habitation.

So I'm not familiar with much in the way of cat training. I'd sure like to teach Lucy to enjoy riding in cars and going on trips with us. Any tips on how to get started? She handled the ride home ok in her travel box, didn't seem too purturbed. I think she has real potential to be an Airstreamin' Cat!

Buried this cat from old age, right? (I like old thread revival in general, but couldn't resist this).

Wow, I started this thread 12 years ago (the year we got the Caravel)! Lucy is long gone (disappeared), and the new kitties who took her place are about 9 - and neither enjoys traveling. They stay home and watch the house when we are gone, and then complain about our absence when we return
