Essential Emergency Kit for Your Cat

Cats thrive on familiarity, especially in stressful situations. Whether it’s a natural disaster or an unexpected emergency, having a well-prepared kit ensures your cat stays comfortable and secure. With essentials like Travel Gravel, you’ll both be ready to face anything — and we’ve got the perfect list of must-haves to help you get started.

Cat-astrophe Ready: Must-Haves for Your Kit

1. Food and Water

Prepare your cat travel kit with a two-week supply of your cat’s favorite food, stored in airtight, lightweight containers. If you're packing canned food, remember a manual can opener. Don’t forget bottled water and collapsible bowls to keep your cat hydrated and fed while on the go.

2. Medications and Medical Records

If your cat is on any medications, pack a two-week supply along with a printed list of instructions for administering them. Don't forget to include a copy of their medical records, vaccination history, and a recent photo in case you get separated. This will ensure your cat emergency kit is ready for anything.

3. Litter and Cleanup Supplies

Make sure to include a portable litter box and Travel Gravel in your emergency kit. This convenient 4-pound pouch of compact lightweight clumping litter is perfect for on-the-go situations, whether you're camping, traveling, or dealing with an unexpected emergency. With Travel Gravel, you can maintain your cat’s routine, no matter where you are, ensuring they stay comfortable and stress-free.

4. Comfort and Security

Emergencies can be stressful for both you and your cat, so make sure to pack a cozy blanket or their favorite toy to provide some comfort. A sturdy, comfortable cat carrier is key for safe transport, and a harness and leash will help keep your kitty secure if you need to move around. Bonus points if the blanket or toy smells like home!

5. First Aid and Identification

Make sure your emergency kit includes essential first aid supplies like bandages and a thermometer, along with a basic pet first aid guide. Also, pack your cat’s up-to-date ID tags and microchip information, including the chip’s number and the contact details of the microchip company, to help reunite you if you get separated.

Being prepared means peace of mind for both you and your cat. With the right essentials packed, you’ll be ready to tackle anything that comes your way — together.
