Moving with pets, if they have never had to leave home before it could be an ordeal for them. Here are some tips to help you get your pet ready for moving day.

Pets can be stressed over moving just like people. How can you tell? Your pet may refuse to eat or be more nippy than usual to you and others.
Recognize these signs and try to keep your pet calm. Take breaks and play with them. Leave their belongings until last in your packing so they can have something familiar around them.
Here are some more tips to help you go from point A to point B, when moving with pets.
Moving With Pets Tip #1 –
Change Identification
You will have a new address and your pet’s collar (if applicable) needs to reflect that. If they getaway at a stop or run loose as you haul boxes in at your new place, you want those who find him to be able to find you. Include your cell phone number.

Buy A Pet Carrier

Visit or Talk With Your Vet
Some pets get motion sick. If your pet has never left home you might not be sure, but it is better to be safe than sorry. Get medication for it just in case. The vet can also suggest ways to calm your pet on long rides.
Moving With Pets Tip #4 –
Make frequent stops on the trip
Pets can get just as restless as children. Make regular stops at rest areas to stretch your legs and to give your pet a bathroom break. They can work off some nervous energy from being pent up in the car.

Moving With Pets Tip #5 –
Keep them comfortable
Put a familiar blanket and toy in the pet carrier so your pet will feel at home. Look in the door so that they can also see that you are still with him.
Moving With Pets Tip #6 –
Plan your sleeping arrangements on the trip.
All hotels are not “pet friendly.” Find areas where you can keep your pet with you in the room.
This way you don’t have to drive all night or leave your pet in the car overnight. In hot areas, pets have been known to die from heat exhaustion in cars.
Keep pet safe as you move – Tie your pet up in the yard or on the porch while you move in. Afterward, let them walk around the house and get comfortable with their new surroundings.
That concludes Moving with pets.
