When people think about moving, they often forget
the impact the move can have on their furry
family members. Both cats and dogs can sense
changes to normal routines and will notice if
things seem different or there are noticeable
changes.

This can cause them to feel anxious and stressed.
They will want to be the center of attention and
cling to you all of the time.

Even with your cat or dog attached to your side,
you still need to prepare for your upcoming move.
Helping them adjust to the forthcoming changes
will help them relax some and start to be
accustomed to the changes.

Pick a room to use as a pet sanctuary Keep one
room set up with your pets favorite bed, toys,
and other items to make them feel relaxed.

You will want to pack this room last because you
can keep them confined in it on moving day. This
way, while the rest of the home is loaded onto
the moving truck, you do not have to worry about
them getting out and taking off.

7
Make moving materials seem normal Set out moving
boxes and other moving materials in different
rooms in the home. This will help your pet think
that the materials are just new additions to the
room.

8
Set out the pet crate/carrier prior to the
move Cat owners will especially want to do this
since some cats will hate being confined.
However, if you leave the door open, so they can
go in and out freely, it allows them to become
more familiar with the carrier.

On moving day, when it is time to put them in the
carrier, they may even get in it willingly.

Make sure to get a collar with tags for your
pets The tags should have a contact phone number
and the pets name. If space allows, you may also
want to include your vets name. This way if they
should happen to get out and take off, whoever
they approach will know how to return them to
their owner.

Transport your pets in your own vehicle, never in
a moving truck Even if your pet hates being
confined in a crate in the car and lets you know
this all the way to your new home, they do feel
more at ease when you are with them.

12
Set up a quiet space in the new home Since you
will probably arrive before your movers, do not
let your pets out of their crates or carriers.
They will want to explore their new home and
possibly try to run out the front door.

Instead, pick a room where you can put out fresh
water, food, litter boxes, bedding, toys, etc.
Once the room is set up, you can keep them
confined in the room until the moving truck is
unloaded.

For long-distance moves, remember to pack pet
essentials and take those with you for overnight
stays until you reach your new home.
