Can I use this object for my cat on a car trip ?

Yes. I can see it working fine on a roadtrip for a cat. It will probably be manual instead of being able to let it sit alone the entire trip.

Agree with other's answers. Bowl may be simpler for travel. Key feature of this item is portability when walking. This is the only one I found that the human can drink out of too, though a little awkward.
835893
Definitely. I don't see why not. As long as you hold it while she is drinking. I am not sure if the bottle would stay put while the car is moving if you wanted the cat to have access to the water at all times.

If you hold it while the cat drinks it will be fine. It would probably tip if you set it down though.

I depends on your pet and her willingness to cooperate when she's thirsty. Our cat has drunk from it in the car, but not as routinely or thoroughly as the dog did. The bowl is flexible and not much water can rest in the bowl without spilling; I hold it up to them when they're drinking and also give her access to a water bowl when we give her access to the litter box.

I don't think so. However I think these strollers are great for large cats. I have the Happy Trails model for my 6kg cat and it is so much easier to get him to go in that as he refuses to use a normal carrier. Maybe worth using a dog seatbelt harness to keep the cat on seat of car before transfering to stroller at the vets.

We traveled with our cat across the country, but did not use this in the car. She was honestly too scared during the driving portions to do anything except hide and sleep. As soon as we got to the hotel room, we would put this out (and lots of food and water), and she would eventually use it, usually in the middle of the night. If you have a big car, this might fit, but I'm guessing most cats will probably not want to use it in the car while you're driving.

It might work for that, I use it outside to keep the cats off of our cars and it is not very effective. I think using it in a close proximity would be effective.

Sure, there is no reason why not (unless you own a sports car with strangely shaped seats, or some other anomaly). I have used mine in the car before for a long road trip.

No. I don't see how one could and I don't think it would be a good idea. This is a great and useful thing for giving cats a taste of the outdoors, or even using it indoors to keep them from getting under foot, but you still need to monitor them when they're in it.

I don't see why not... our cat would bat it around - he's not a chewer and this is hard plastic - not something they can carry off in their mouths. I haven't even thought of that this as an idea, but I bet my cat would love it too! I gave it as a gift for my nephew and haven't tried it with our cat. You can always give it a go to see what the cat does, and return it if the cat loses interest or is scared off by it - these toys move pretty quick. Not sure on battery life, so it may be more of a cat toy that you would turn on and off when you're home to monitor it to save on batteries and pet safety at the same time.

You could yes but if the dog tryes to get out it will roll over , and how well does the dog handle confinement, there would not be a lot of room , now you can put the wire French like at the open door and use it like a doghouse ? There are two ways or two doors one on each side they zip , I use mine to trave with my cats because it is easy to put into the back seat floor , then put the letterbox and some food in , this way they can not get out when we stop , it is a great product , but very hard to put back into case lol good luck

Yes, you can. Directions are in the manual under training a cat to use the door.

Yes you can. My cat uses it as a place to take a nap but I just used a small bungee to hold the door open instead of removing it. She loves it.

No def not. Very fragile and tempremental.Although a good idea to find your cat, this product actually is bad, and I would not reccomend it.

Not to my knowledge. We have a cat in the neighborhood that typically sets it off every night at pretty much the same time, so it would be nice to have that adjustment to pick up cars and/or people.

That's a floor area of 4 feet by 2.5 feet. Probably overkill for two cats. Plus, for a five hour car ride, they really don't need a litter box. They likely won't go while in the car anyway. Crates like this aren't the best for transporting cats. Cats do much better and are much less nervous in carriers like this one.

I don't think so. The lid is closely fitted, moves slowly and makes enough noise that the cat has time to move out of the way. Since you set it to move every 12 or 24 hours, the food is usually long gone before it moves. If you move it manually by hitting the button, then you are there to see the cat safe. Should be fine.

Hi Kris, I used it for a cross country drive with two cats. It was perfect. It is pretty large and small dogs will be able to walk from one side to the other, but it is secure. You strap it to the headrests in the backseats. If you have to brake suddenly they will stay on the seat. I highly recommend it. One of my cats had an accident while in it and it cleaned right off easily with out soaking in.

Maybe. There's plenty of ventilation, so air should circulate and if the car was cool, she'd get that benefit. My biggest concern would be that it wouldn't suit her for a long trip. She'd have to lay down and it might be a little small for an extended time. Plus, it might be hard to get her in and out of it. It's only about two feet high and two feet wide.

I have two cats that ride in this very well. I also can add a small litter box. Our trip lasts at least five hours. I love it, it's worked well so far...
