Sharing our experiences and top tips for travelling with cats
Whiskers on Wheels is a passion project, born out of people asking how we successfully transitioned our girls from indoor to full-time travel cats.
We’re passionate about all things cats and travel. We love helping cat owners realise it’s not impossible to combine the two, and travel with their cats.
We are so proud of our book ‘How To Prepare Your Cat For Motorhome Travel’, you can get your copy here
We are currently out of stock of physical copies but you can still buy the E-Book version!

Because we can’t have a cat tree in here, we have cat scratch boards and the girls love them! The cardboard infill is reversible so it has double the lifespan and comes with a little catnip to get them started. If its approved by our girls, it must be good
We use the AirTag holders for the Cat’s collars so we can keep a track on them if they are out off their harnesses! (which only happens in known, safe spaces or open places)
We attach Apple AirTags to the Cat’s collars (using the collar cases above) to keep a track on them when they are out off harnesses
We use these FURminators to de-shed the girl’s coats and keep their coats smooth and shiny. We have one for our long hair girls and one for our short hair girl
We have two of these self cleaning lint brushes in the van (with 3 cats, its a necessity!) and they are great for everything from clothes to blankets
Among our arsenal of hair remover tools, we have this metal, double sided one. It is tougher so not for clothes but perfect for carpets & the girl’s beloved dash blankets
We use these small Flexi retractable leads for when we take the cats out for a walk on their harnesses. Great to be able to let them roam a bit further or keep them close depending on where we are. We have pink ones though, of course
For walking the cats safely on their leads, we have these mesh pet harnesses from Pets at Home. They are actually small dog ones but the fit is ideal and comfortable. They have a reflective trim and are easy to get on and off. (We have 3 different colours, 1 for each Cat)
We have 3 folding style cat carriers similar to this for travel. 2x smaller ones and 1x larger one so they are size/weight appropriate. Folding ones are so much easier to pop in the garage when we’re stopped and they have multiple openings for easy access
