Moving Pets
Most people don’t realize that moving affects all members of your family, even your pets. Our pets sense stress and react to it just like people do. The older the pet is, the more stress they feel. The easier we can make the move for them, the easier the move will be on us. Here are some helpful hints for making the move on your pets as stress free as possible:
- As your move approaches, keep your pets routine regular. Continue to feed them and play with them as you normally would. As the final week before moving day approaches, you may find it easier to keep your pet at a neighbor’s house.
- Take your pet to the veterinarian for a check up the day before the move. Make sure all vaccinations are current, especially the rabies vaccination. Ask your veterinarian if he recommends that your pet be tranquilized during the move. If your pet requires any medication, make sure to have an ample supply handy. Also, ask your veterinarian if he can recommend a reliable veterinarian in the city where you are moving too.
- Keep a collar with some form of identification on your pet at all times. This will reduce the level of stress should your pet escape during the move.
- Keep handy a familiar toy or blanket, as pets are comforted by scents they recognize.
- Plan on taking two plastic containers, one for food and one for water. Bring paper towels, a sponge, and plastic bags in case your pet gets sick along the way. Also, take a leash for when you need to make stops with your pet.
- Transport your pet in a sturdy, insulated carrier. This will help in regulating the temperature of your pet. Never leave any pet in the car for more than a few minutes unattended.
- Once you’ve arrived at your destination, don’t turn your pet loose until things have calmed down a bit. Open the door of the carrier, and let your pet decide when they would like to come out.
