Mine go into their carrier (metal grate in the front, holes on the sides), with a towel on the bottom and some hay. They like the air vents to be pointed at them and I make sure to bring craisins, since the vet trip is nasty to them and they need a treat for it. During travel, I keep the radio off and talk to them and sometimes rub their noses.

I prefer to have my husband drive so I can have the buns in my lap in their carrier and stroke them during the drive.  We have a soft crate that opens on the side but also at the top. It has a fuzzy bottom but I put a towel in there too because they will most likely pee during the ride there or the ride home.

I used to have a plastic carrier than I put my buns in for travel. They were terrified when they were transported in that. Now I use the compartment of my stroller and inside it has a litter box with hay and a blanket. Now my buns are not afraid of travel and for the most part (if the radio is too loud, they get a little nervous), are completely relaxed during our car rides.

I will pet them if I am not the one driving. It seems to help. Wooly especially will want me to “save” him.

Foo has a carrier that’s actually a dog carrier. It has a fleece bed and we always give her hay and treats and let her take a toy with her. So far, my husband has been with me when she’s gone to the groomers or vets so he holds her carrier and pets her. Foo doesn’t seem to mind the car though and likes looking out the windows.

Covering them [the pet carrier] with a towel or a blanket and leaving a space so they can see out helps them feel more secure.
