I just read an article online and I felt I needed to speak about it.  The article was explaining that New Zealand is currently planning on stopping their importation of dog and cat fur.  I'm actually amazed to learn that any modern civilization could still be trading in cat and dog pelts!  Apparently they even use these furs to create dog toys!  This ads a sick new sense to the terms dog apparel and dog clothing!  Unbelievably, most products are intentionally mislabelled as other types of fur so American vacationers may even travel with pets fur out of New Zealand without knowing it!  Well the saying goes you learn something new everyday - I just wish this wasn't what I learned today.  Rest assured PetKaboodle.com will NEVER carry these items!

Safety during travel with pets is very important along with all the pet supplies needed during your excursion. When you travel with pets in the car, it is always very important for the safety of you as well as your pet to be buckled up.  Travel with pets becomes very dangerous when they are allowed to roam the car.  Pets do not understand the concentration needed while driving and may sometimes be a distraction that could cause an accident.  For comfort and safety during travel with pets, using a safety dog harness or pet car seat is always best. Some pet carriers also have easy seat belt attachment for added safety.  Some concern travel with pets in the car many have is pet hair on the upholstery.  In these cases, you can protect your car seats with travel blanket seat covers or individual bucket seat covers. 

When the travel with pets is lengthy, it is always good to have a travel kit for your pet.  Some of the items your kit should include are travel bowls for food and water, toys for entertainment or even pet beds for a good night's rest.  Oh, and dont forget to take your pooper scooper ;)

Travel with pets can be fun! It doesn't  have to be a hassle when you have the right pet supplies to help!
