Whisker’s (makers of the Litter-Robot) Veterinary Advisor, Dr. Anna Foster, has tips for cat parents as they plan travel this summer, or upcoming fall/holiday trips.

Travelling can be stressful, but preparing your cat doesn't have to be!

While most cats are best left in their familiar surroundings for summer getaways, ensuring their well-being requires more than just extra food and caregiver checkups.

Tips for Cat Care When Traveling

Prep Time Matters

Start preparing your cat a week or two in advance to ease transitions, especially when introducing pet sitters or automatic feeders.

Spotting Subtle Signs of Stress

Cats are masters of disguise. Look for quiet cues like decreased appetite, increased hiding, or changes in their litter box habits.

Tech-Enhanced Peace of Mind

Smart devices like Litter-Robot and Feeder-Robot provide consistent routines, ensure cleanliness, and offer real-time data on your cat's health and habits, making a sitter's job easier and more effective.

Emergency Planning

Always leave a detailed, printed care guide including feeding schedules, medication, vet contacts, and emergency protocols, ensuring sitters are fully prepared for any unforeseen issues.
