How To Safeguard A Cat While Driving

The old saw competing the two most popular pets:

Dogs have owners.
Cats have staff

I've had cats and dogs, someone's both at once. The above quote is true.

I only have to snap my fingers and the dogs come running..the Cat? It takes a 10 minute dissertation to get the cat to even look in my direction, let alone come when called. So, I'd say if you want to take your cat in the truck, make sure it is well trained (as trained as a cat can be) so you know how it'll behave and will come when called.

Your cat has figured out that you calling it is not worth his/her time and effort for some reason.

Hmmmm.... Maybe I am? I'm not sure...

one thing I do know... when I point at something, my dogs look at where I'm pointing, the cat just sits there and looks at my hand. Maybe I just have an unusually stupid cat? LOL

Then I imagine what that would look like from the outside: a truck swerving all over the road , the driver desperately holding on to the wheel with one hand and trying to pry a hysterical cat off his face with the other...
