This ragdoll kitten flew from Chicago to Austin with a flight nanny to meet her new family. Thank you to CosmicRagdolls for trusting me with this sweetie-pie.
Customers often ask; “What happens if my kitten is crying on the plane?” “What if they are scared?” “What if they PEE?!”
My response; “It is not a problem." 💜 Flying with kittens is one of my specialties. I make great efforts to keep your pet comfortable and safe during their trip. Some cats meow while flying but this actually lets me know they are alert and breathing well. If they are scared I will take time to give them some attention so they know they are not alone.
A warm blanket can help them relax a bit easier. Potty pads are usually placed under the blanket to help with any accidents. But cats very rarely urinate while traveling like this. Sometimes we place a thin blanket over the pet carrier once we are on board the plane to keep them from being overstimulated. For short flights they are offered water before takeoff. For longer flights we may offer a bit of wet food to keep their blood sugar balanced. We follow instructions from your breeder about meals and snacks. You get updates from me throughout the trip with lots of photos. So if there is ever a concern about your pet’s health or safety you will know about it.
Same-day delivery of your kitten in the care of a pet nanny is by far the most humane way to get your new love quickly into your arms. Most domestic flights can be completed in just 6-8 hours so your kitten will spend minimal time in transit. Generally, we meet your kitten at the airport about 1.5hrs before departure. We can provide a brand new pet carrier with all the supplies ready for her flight. Then we check in at that airline ticket counter to pay our pet fee and get our boarding pass. Next is security! For most kittens, we can hold them in our arms as we go through the xray machine. Some kittens can be little rascals and don't like being handled; so for these friends we will request a private screening. TSA will take us to a private room with a door and we can let the kitty out our their bag without fear of them running away. Once we are finished with our security check we head to our gate and wait for our flight. This is the perfect chance to offer cuddles or water or simply let your kitty rest after all the commotion. Soon we are tucked into our flight and on our way to you. I send you picture updates of the entire process along with our flight itinerary. You always know where we are and how your little furry lovebug is doing. And in no time, your kitten is in your arms at your destination airport. We can also offer full-service door to door delivery if you need our assistance outside of the airport.
Your kitten deserves safe and comfortable accommodations and we are here to make the process smooth and stress-free. Reach out today for your custom flight nanny quote.
