Traveling with a pet over a long distance comes with its own set of challenges. Nevertheless, that should not worry you as movers Milton have some tips to guide you through the process.

1. Have a microchip implanted in or on your pet

Just in case your pet gets away during all the hubbub of a move, this will help you know where exactly they are. It is suggested to implant the microchip at least two weeks in advance to have enough time to figure out and register a second contact just in case the pet is lost and you cannot be reached. This will make it a lot easier than having to print “missing pet” posters when you cannot find it.

2. Let the pet get accustomed to its crate

An additional way to see to it that your pet feels unperturbed during the move is to let them remain in their cages for some time before the set moving date. Begin this process some time ahead of time so that they can have adequate time to be conversant with the enclosure.

In addition to that, making them relate their new cage with a reward leads to less resistance when it comes time for them to stay put during the journey. For instance, give them a treat every time they accept to eat or to sleep in it. If the pet is being delivered via air transports, then check that their crate is the correct size. Get one that is strong and is spacious to make them calm.

3. Give it some exercises

Pets love being energetic and playing around, and therefore to make sure that they are not fussy and are completely relaxed in their cage one needs to let them exercise enough before the day of the move. Think of maybe increasing the distance you cover when you take them for a walk as the D-day approaches as this will help them not get too tired in the course of the journey. Apart from keeping them calm, it will also greatly reduce their anxiety levels during the process, keeping them and you happy.

4. Pack with them in mind

In line with the type of transportation you have arranged for your pet to be ferried by to your new abode, there will be some items like their toys that you could be in a position to bring. Nonetheless, it is recommended to pack as must stuff as you think the pet will need, as well as some extras. Some of these articles include any medication that they are on, food and treats, toys to make sure they do not get bored, litter bags, and grooming supplies.

Getting your pet ready will be a challenge every single time, but the good thing is if you have done enough research and are adequately prepared, then the process will flow smoothly.
