How to take your cat camping

"Camping with a cat? Yes, it is possible. This is also a good exercise for your feline friends, and both of you can be outdoors.

However, you cannot simply tie a leash to the cat’s collar, pack a can of tuna, and then take the camper into the woods. If you want to make sure that you and your kitten have a good time, you need to do some planning and preparation.

If you are not familiar with the adventure world of cats, we recommend that you first determine whether your kitten is suitable for this lifestyle, because if your cat doesn't like camping, then you definitely don't like camping with your cat. (Your kitten will determine this.)"

Dr. Kat Miller, ASPCA's anti-cruel behavior research director, told Adventure Cats: "This is definitely not suitable for every cat.

The feline must be easy to operate to put on and take off the seat belt, have enough confidence to carry out outdoor activities without fear, and do not'squirm' trying to get rid of the seat belt and take a break. "Therefore, please read the feline character carefully to determine if your cat can become an adventurous cat.

In addition, before you go out or even walk around with your cat in the backyard, please make sure that you have purchased the correct seat belt and hauled the cat’s leash correctly. Kitty will not embark on a journey of nature for the first time because his paw fell on the campsite.

Although it may be good to bring your cat to the camping, most cats will not respond well to being forced into a new situation, and it is likely that your cherished pet will eventually be injured or even lost. Therefore, do camping activities correctly and fully understand all the basics before taking the first step.

Will you sleep in a trailer or camp in a nearby tent? perfect. Is there a kitten who is used to hiking for short hikes? Completely feasible. Please do your research before departure. If you are not sure whether cats are allowed, please call. Although some national parks allow pets to travel on certain trails and campgrounds, travel in remote areas is not allowed. Pets can be used in all national forests in the United States, but in most places, they can be led on a leash and are not allowed in swimming areas. Please keep in mind that some campgrounds will charge extra if you bring a cat.

Before heading outdoors with your feline friend, check the weather and do not take your cat to camp in extreme temperatures. In addition, before the weather is particularly hot or cold, please consider the length of the cat's coat (or no coat). If your cat is a hairless breed or has light and fine hair, you may need sunscreen.

In addition to your own outdoor equipment, you also need to bring all the items needed by your four-legged friend.
