Prepare Your Cat for Train Travel
Ensuring your cat is well-prepared for train travel is crucial for a smooth and safe journey. Follow these steps:
Documentation:
Keep your cat’s vaccination record and a health certificate ready. These documents are mandatory for train travel.
Crate, Bedding, and Toys:
Use a secure crate with comfortable bedding to keep your cat cozy.
Include your cat’s favorite toys to provide familiarity and reduce stress.
Food and Feeding Schedule:
Provide your cat’s preferred food for the journey.
Clearly communicate the feeding schedule to the handler at the time of pickup.
Collar, Leash, and Harness:
Provide a collar, leash, and harness, especially for Indie cats, as they tend to be more adventurous and prone to escape.
Persian and British cats are generally calmer but should still have these items for safety.
Medication:
If your cat is on medication, ensure you provide the necessary medicines and inform the handler about the dosage and schedule.
By preparing thoroughly, you can ensure your cat has a safe and comfortable journey by train.

2. Cat Relocation by Road: Pet taxi services for cats
Service Details
We offer two travel options for cats to travel by air:
In-Cabin Travel:
Cats up to 7kg (including carrier weight) can travel with Air India flights.
Cats up to 10kg (including carrier weight) can travel with Akasa Air flights.
Cargo Hold Travel:
Cats can also travel in the cargo hold, but certain snub-nosed (brachycephalic) breeds are not allowed, such as Persian, Burmese, and Exotic Shorthair cats.
This mode is ideal when no one is traveling with the cats.
If you have a snub-nosed cat, the in-cabin travel option is recommended. This option is particularly popular among pet parents who fly with their cats.
