How do you travel with a pet?

Historically, people love all sorts of furry animals: dogs, kitties, hamsters, etc. And they love to travel, too. It's great when for a vacation four-legged friend can take a mom for a while. And if the fluffy has no one to leave? The answer is simple: let him also fly on vacation! Only this issue should be engaged in conjunction with the organization of your vacation. Here we will talk about it.

Flight
⠀
Be sure to find out from the chosen airline what is necessary for a successful flight of Barsik.
The thing is that each airline has certain quotas for transportation of animals. Many airlines may refuse to carry your cat if it is already registered on board, for example, a dog.
⠀
If you buy a tour/tickets through an agency, the good fairies of tourism will send a request to the airline themselves. And will notify you of the decision. All you have to do is to provide information about the weight of the animal + carrier you are going to put it in.
⠀
Happiness is there and Barsik has been approved for the flight.
⠀
🔸 Buy your friend a comfortable cage where he can stand on all 4 paws and even spin on his axis.
⠀
🔸 On the day of your flight, you go to the airport in advance and go to the vet. Don't forget to take all the documents confirming that you have the necessary vaccinations. About the package of documents, by the way, it is also better to find out in the airline.
⠀
🔸 Cats and dogs are considered non-standard baggage and do not fit into the baggage allowance. Some airlines charge for the total weight “animal+cage” and some have a fixed cost.
⠀
🔸 If your Barsik+cage total weight is up to 8 kg, then fly in the cabin. And if it's more than that, it's better to find him a babysitter at home, because not everyone can survive the flight in the luggage compartment.
It is easier with dogs - large and potentially dangerous ones are transported in the baggage compartment.

Accommodation

🔸 At the hotel selection stage, only stay in hotels that allow pets.
⠀
🔸 Keep in mind that many hotels/hotels charge a separate fee for pets.
⠀
🔸Tell your chosen hotel that you will have Barsik with you. You will be informed about the rules of accommodation for animals at the same time
⠀
When checking in, ask the hotel staff to show you where you can walk your kitty/dog.
⠀
🔸 Don't forget to take all the accessories your friend needs: bowls, food, litter box, toys.
