Taking your pets along with you for a vacation is quite difficult. Specific important considerations, however, make it easy and safe. Train travel is much cheaper when compared to air travel. However, not all trains allow pets to travel. You can travel along with your pets in local trains. Therefore, contact the train operator when planning a train travel with your pets in advance. Check if the train allows the pet travel. If it does not allow, check for another train.
Reservations for pets when traveling by train depends on the company. While some demand half the amount of a ticket reservation, some other demand full fare. Consider a right carrier for your pet. Ensure that your pet can stand, lie down, turn around in the carrier. The carrier should have a strong handle, leak-proof bottom and proper ventilation supplies on the sides. Train your pet so that it gets used to be in the carrier. Start training the pet several weeks before your travel time. Any small pets can be carried in small pet carriers and held in your hand.
It is also necessary to provide the proof of present up-to-date rabies and vaccination certificates when boarding the train. Ensure that you have all these documents. Any negligence of these may disappoint your travel plan. Pack the necessary supplies like food, water and dishes of your pet. It is only the passengers' responsibility to feed and exercise their pets at station stops. Include the pet's favorite stuff toys and treats in the checklist in order to make your pet calm and obedient during the travel. If your pet bird gets frightened of all the movement, cover its cage with a blanket as it travels. Include an identification tag for your pet. Don't miss any of these considerations to enable a happy train journey with your pets.
