Flying my cat in cargo
Hello,
I’m making this post to receive some advice since everything I search and look at tells me “NEVER PUT YOUR CAT IN CARGO!!!”.
So, in October I’ll be flying to Sweden so my year long stay, the issue I’m having is that there’s no direct flight from Canada to Sweden in October so I’ll be taking a connecting flight with SAS.
Merlin (my cat) is a 2 year old male Siberian cat who is 17lbs. He’ll be able to go in the cabin with me for air Canada but not for my connecting flight, and overall the more I think about having him in the cabin the more uncomfortable I think he’ll be since he won’t be able to stand in the carrier
Other than the stress he’ll go through, I feel like he’d be more comfortable in cargo since I have a big kennel for him so he’ll be able to stand and turn around with no issues
I am stressing about the whole situation so if anyone has done this before can you please give me some tips/ advice? Leaving him in Canada is not an option
