Before heading out, pet proof your RV to prevent damage and stress for you and your pets.<\/p>\n<h2>Before you Go RVing with Pets<\/h2>\n<p>Cats and dogs are at their best in familiar surroundings, with things that include the scent of themselves and their people.

Set up your RV and bring your traveling companions out for a few hours of exploring and relaxing in their home on the road.\u00a0 Even if your pets are regular road warriors, a few minutes of reconnecting with their RV will be well spent.<\/p>\n<p>If your pets are first time travelers, follow-up with a short drive around the neighborhood or stop and set up in a nearby park, so your companions get a sense of the smells, scents, and activities that are part of RV travel.\u00a0 The Humane Society of The United States suggests a few regular drives in your RV with pet lets your companion get used to the vehicle\u2019s motion and gives you a heads up if motion sickness is going to be part of the journey.<\/p>\n<p>Gather up any medications your pet needs as well as veterinarian information.\u00a0 If you\u2019re planning lots of time in the outdoors, add some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/offer-listing\/B01N0BZUXO\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B01N0BZUXO&amp;linkCode=am2&amp;tag=netsourcemedi-20&amp;linkId=2a0e98da4c445c81861761ceb0138a83\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flea and tick repellent<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=netsourcemedi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B01N0BZUXO\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/>.<\/p>\n<p>Before heading out, assess your destination and travel plans to make sure it\u2019s a suitable location for your pet, the Humane Society suggests. Make sure there are adequate places for walks and there are pet-friendly parks and campgrounds on the way as well as at your destination.<\/p>\n<h2>Prepping your RV for Pet Travel<\/h2>\n<p>A few inexpensive accessories and simple modifications can protect your RV investment and make pets and humans happier campers.<\/p>\n<p>Safety first, according to the Humane Society.\u00a0 Allowing pets to ramble about cars, trucks, and RVs can result in injury to your pet and be a hazardous distraction for the driver.\u00a0 Consider using Velcro or command strips to install a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/offer-listing\/B0089HDZYO\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0089HDZYO&amp;linkCode=am2&amp;tag=netsourcemedi-20&amp;linkId=390ec9c05953e93d58a57393e5379b41\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> pet gate<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=netsourcemedi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B0089HDZYO\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/> or net to keep your dog or cat in a safe place in your RV.\u00a0 If your pets are traveling in the towing vehicle, consider a restraint that keeps them safely in the back seat \u2013 away from luggage that could topple in a sudden stop, and the driver\u2019s compartment, where they can be a dangerous distraction.<\/p>\n<p>Smaller pets and nervous animal travelers may feel more secure traveling in a collapsible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/offer-listing\/B019K6QD32\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B019K6QD32&amp;linkCode=am2&amp;tag=netsourcemedi-20&amp;linkId=47d88d8e54dda2322f3a147296d97e24\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pet carrier<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=netsourcemedi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B019K6QD32\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/>, even in the most spacious RV.<\/p>\n<p>Consider specially-made pet furniture covers \u2013 or simple sheets and towels &#8212; to protect the customized upholstery in your RV, especially for drive times, when your pet may become bored or overcome by nerves and scratch, chew or piddle.<\/p>\n<p>Towables and motorized coaches have many tight spaces that may be appealing and dangerous, especially for privacy-seeking cats and small dogs. Secure small cabinets that hold wiring or electronics, or the underside of convertible furniture, where animal can hide, cause damage or be injured. Instead, create new, cozy places and safe havens that will appeal to privacy seeking cats or nervous small dogs.\u00a0 Install a small shelf for height-loving cats, create a getaway under a table or non-folding sofa, or allow your pet to \u201chide\u201d in a seldom used cubby.<\/p>\n<p>Take special care to make sure pets have adequate time and places to eliminate, for the protection of your RV, the campgrounds, and the pet\u2019s health.\u00a0 If you\u2019re traveling with cats, a little litter box mess can have a big impact. Consider repurposing a built-in cabinet for the litter box hideaway.\u00a0 Add a pet door, and your cat has privacy &#8212; and the litter is not overwhelming the living space. If a cabinet isn\u2019t available, travel with a roll of plastic floor protection \u2013 the kind used by contractors or Realtors to protect heavy traffic areas \u2013 that can go under the litter box and be changed regularly to prevent litter from being tracked into carpeted areas or causing damage to vinyl floors.<\/p>\n<p>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/offer-listing\/B018IZAL6G\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B018IZAL6G&amp;linkCode=am2&amp;tag=netsourcemedi-20&amp;linkId=49612435ab40286447c8a4e4d2c9fe9f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Command-style hooks <\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=netsourcemedi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B018IZAL6G\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/> to create a dog walking station near the RV door.
