haha oh louiseb, you made me smile a bit (they are big eaters)...seriously! But I do have faith in the animal carers at Dogtainers. It's clear the animals are their first priority to them. I'd trust them with my dog, They provide a trusted, reliable, and affordable pet transport services.This is interesting for me as i am bringing my 2 beloved cats over i have heard the dope the cats on a long flight so they sleep ect, i do worry about my babies and about the food and water if they will have enough, there big eaters lol. Also the size of the cage my cats will go beserk locked up for 24 hours in a small cage. I am interested in this thread to see what others post.
