This month I had the privilege of taking a cat on an airplane ride! OK, have to admit I was really worried. I mean, Foof was not too crazy about me when we picked her up from Josh's folks and then the next day, taking her to the vet! she was not happy with me at all! Denise said to ask for Kitty tranquilizer. I did and was told they don't give them to cats! Oh great, how in the world am I going to get through security, sit in the airport for 1.5 hours and then ride for 4 hours on a plane with a cat that hates me????
Well, I called around to a few 'natural' stores the morning I was scheduled to leave and found this stuff called Rescue Remedy. I gave it to her when I first came home in some ice cream (her favorite), then put a little on her nose as we were putting her in the crate. (and! I had sprayed the heck out of the crate with a lavender spray) . I had the best little kitty ! no problems taking her out of the crate to go through security (I had visions of her jumping out of my arms and me running through Hopkins chasing her). She just looked around and went right back in the crate afterwards. One little cry on the plane and that was it!
She was happy to see Denise, Josh and Henry. The verdict is still out on the newest addition, Maddie :)
