Today, we’re kicking off a series of articles and interviews on traveling with your cat to help you prepare for summer travel in case Fluffy is part of your plans. Or, maybe you’re taking baby steps and will see how your cat does during “Take Your Pet to Work Week,” on June 14 – 20. We can help with that, too!
Our friends at Iams are sponsoring a contest on The Cat’s Meow, offering the winner a spectacular gift package that will keep your cat healthy and happy when you’re traveling together — or even if you’re planning a staycation this year:
Two Bags of Iams Cat Food (3.5 lb.)
Irish Air-Tight Pet Food Storage Container
Whisker City Plush Cat Bed
Classy Kitty Carpeted Scratching Post
DuraScoop Large Cat Litter Scoop

Whisker City Safety Stretch Cat Collars (Available in multiple colors)
Groomax Brush & Slicker Combo for Cats

If you’re the winner, in addition to all that loot, you’ll also have a cat bed donated in your name to a local Iams Home for the Holidays shelter.
