I would love to go with her, but flying internationally with a pet is complex.

I'm a Cat! Here Are 4 Things I Love About Living in Baja California

What To Know About Desert Camping With Your Cat
Last week, Missus and I took a break from life on the road to start building our eco-dome in New Mexico. We did live in the desert in Mexico (the country!) for five months. But, proximity to the beach and being in a small city removed the need for most of our usual precautions.

How To Choose the Right Leash for Your Cat
My missus started my training with leashes and harnesses the day she brought me home. But, I was so skittish and feral that she put this off to focus on taming me. That took three weeks and then another few months for me to get comfortable with other humans.

How To Choose the Right Carrier for Your Cat
Do you have a carrier for your cat? We know a lot of people who don’t. Then, the day comes when they need to take their kitties to the vet or take them out of the RV for repairs—and they have no safe space to do so.
