What airlines actually allow in the cabin
Sept 18, 2026Weight limits, carrier sizes and the airlines that still say no. What we checked before booking, and the two rules that caught us out.
Vet paperwork for entering the EU with a cat
Sept 04, 2026Microchip first, then the rabies shot, then the certificate — in that order. The dates that matter and how long the whole thing takes.
A 14-hour flight with a cat: what worked
Aug 22, 2026One long-haul leg, one carrier under the seat, and a cat that slept most of the way. What we packed and what we would leave at home.
Frequently asked questions
How routes, paperwork, and reuse work.
An AI travel planner for trips you take with your cat. You give it your dates and where you are going, and it checks airline pet policies, entry paperwork and cat-friendly stays, then builds an itinerary with the breaks a cat needs.
Usually yes, but each airline sets its own weight limit and carrier size, and a few do not take cats in the cabin at all. We check the rules for the exact flight you are booking before the rest of the trip is planned.
Most destinations ask for a microchip, a rabies vaccination and a health certificate issued within a set number of days of travel. Some add a permit or a tapeworm treatment, so the plan lists what applies to your route and the deadline for each step.
Yes. It searches hotels, apartments and guesthouses that accept cats, keeps the ones on your route and dates, and notes the pet fee so it is not a surprise at check-in.
The plan slows down: shorter travel days, more breaks, and a route by car or train where that is easier on the cat than flying. If a leg looks like too much, it says so and offers an alternative.
Yes. A saved trip keeps its route, dates, paperwork deadlines and stays, so you can reuse it for the next trip or move the same plan to another country.
