Cat motion sickness should not be underestimated, 6 ways to help cats to relieve the symptoms of motion sickness

Hello everyone, today I’d like to share with you about cats getting carsick. When it comes to this issue, one must ask, how can cats still get carsick? The answer is yes, cats and dogs are the same as humans, some animals will also get carsick. I have a friend and I said, they have a family of three plus their own cats, are seasick. When driving out, even to pull over to the side of the road, three people a cat vomit together. Think about that image is really both heartbreaking and funny. Symptoms of motion sickness: cats with mild symptoms of motion sickness may appear: panting fast and heavy, anxiety, mental discomfort and other symptoms. When the symptoms of motion sickness are severe, the cat may experience vomiting, dizziness, weakness, diarrhea, drooling, incontinence and other symptoms. If the above occurs, I recommend going to the veterinary hospital to determine if medication or treatment is needed based on clinical symptoms. Response 1, early fasting: 8 hours before departure, it is recommended to give the cat water and food, which can reduce the cat’s gastrointestinal pressure, reduce the cat’s symptoms of motion sickness. 2, open the window: fresh air can relieve the cat’s symptoms of motion sickness, driving at high speed is not convenient to open the window, you can open the sunroof or air conditioning for ventilation. 3, prepare the right amount of catnip: as a safer pheromone, catnip can relax 4, midway rest: If you drive for a long time, you can take a break midway, which can relieve driver fatigue and also largely relieve the cat’s motion sickness reaction. 5, front seats: relatively speaking, the stability of the front row of the vehicle is better than the back row, try to put the cat in the front seats. (Of course some luxury cars may be more comfortable in the back row, here say ordinary small cars.) 6, motion sickness medicine: if the cat is really too great motion sickness, you can prepare a certain dose of halo haining, etc. according to veterinary medical advice. Note that if your cat is seasick, it is better to take your cat out as little as possible.
