Howdy Feline Lovers.
Does ANYBODY, know the best way to sending cats across the ocean in the most humane way?

Could you be more specific please? Explain the situation.

Many countries have quarentine regulations for animals coming into the country. You may want to check the laws for the area you are going to. I have traveled many thousands of miles by car with many cats & I find that even the ones that freak out completely at first, while eventualy settle & enter what I can only refer to as a "catatonic state" (no pun intended.) They give up an accept it & try to sleep through most of the event, even if it take 4+ days. Even cats that fought each other constantly, curled up & slept together like old pals! Careful not to let them get loose at any point, because they will very likely bolt & never be seen again. I once had a cat get up inside the battering fabric under a bed in a hotel room. We thought that that it had snuck outside somehow because it was silent & no where to be seen. Nearly had a heart attack because it was my boss's cat that I was transporting across country! Whew!! Glad I didn't have to explain that one.
