Car safety for cats: what you need

A car journey with a cat calls for a bit of kit: a seat cover to protect the back seat, a boot net, and always a secure carrier or crate.

Protect the car and contain your cat

A Walky cover protects the seat from fur and scratches, while a boot net keeps the carrier separate from the cabin if your cat travels in the back. A cat should never roam freely in a moving car.

Get your cat used to travelling

Set the carrier up at home a few days before you leave so your cat gets used to it, and start with short trips. If your cat pants heavily or seems very anxious in the car, ask your vet for advice.

Planning for hot weather

In summer, avoid the hottest hours and never leave your cat alone in a parked car, even briefly, since the inside temperature climbs fast despite cracked-open windows.

Frequently asked questions

How do I safely transport a cat by car?
Place it in a secure, stable carrier or crate, ideally strapped in with the seatbelt or placed on the floor behind a seat.
Do I need a separation net to transport a cat?
If the carrier travels in the boot, a net stops it sliding into the cabin under sudden braking.
Why does my cat pant in the car?
Stress or heat are the usual causes. Ventilate the car, reassure your cat calmly, and see a vet if it keeps happening.
How do I get a cat used to car journeys?
Introduce the carrier at home first, then build up with short trips before a longer journey, rewarding your cat at each step.
