Hi all
Well, tomorrow we are of on our holidays.
We have Peanuts carry cage, he loves this as it is available 24/7 so he uses it at home and traveling. His toys, food and blankets are packed as well as loads of newspaper! He dosen't mess in the house, but always 'goes' in our kitchen, he seems to be confused about 'going' outside at the moment. So newspaper, kitchen towels and floor cleaner are all packed.
The main question is, he gets terribly travel sick:drivecar:, on just short trips and we are going to the Isle of wight! So we thought a light diet of chicken, rice and veg today may help his poor tummy tomorrow? We will also be taking some with us, so he can eat small amounts once we are there, rather then straight into his 'normal' meals. Does this sound ok?? He will obviously have water available at all times.
It is such a shame, cause he loves the car and when we go to new places, but he just can't manage the journey's.
He is 17weeks old, so we are hoping he will grow out of it, but for now we try to avoid feeding him if we know we are going out and about. It's just I didn't want to leave him the whole journey without anything. We will be leaving at 4/5am, driving to Southampton, then a ferry over and then we have to pass time till we get checked in at 4pm.
We are planning loads of stops between here and the ferry, then we should have an hour to pass while waiting for the ferry (i thought a tiny amount of food??). Then we plan on (hopefully) going to the beach and having a few hours on there for him (more food) and the kids to unwind after the travel.
Does this sound ok??
Thanks
Louise, Peanut and a very excited 4yr old!!
