Moving with pets can be particularly challenging. Here are some points to keep in mind when moving with pets:
- Update your pet’s registration and microchip information
- If staying in interim accommodation, make sure to book a hotel which is pet friendly
- Arrange a supply of a week’s worth of pet food and medication and make sure it is accessible, rather than packed away
- Keep pets calm on moving day by keeping them in a quiet room until the last moment
- Transport them in a crate or carrier in the car with you, don’t leave them alone in the car or the moving truck as they will be unsettled and likely distressed
- Set up a safe, quiet room in the new house with food, water, chew toys, litter box and other necessities and gradually introduce them to the rest of the house once the movers have left
