PET SUPPLIES: Your pet might need a few supplies during the flight. Make sure to include two empty food and water dishes secured inside the kennel, and see to it that they can be reached from the outside. Attach extra food, water in small containers, and any required medication to the outside of the crate, along with all specific instructions for these items and a twenty-four hour history of feeding, watering, and medication. We suggest that you also include a small bowl with frozen water inside the crate that your pet can lick in case he feels thirsty and needs to drink some water. Do not use ice cubes as they can be a choking hazard. For the same reason, do not include any toys or any other objects that your pet might accidentally swallow.

INSURANCE If you are considering insuring your pet, it is advisable that you do so for an amount of $10,000. The amount of this coverage to you is minimal and it will mean that greater attention will be given to your pet. This will give you a greater sense of safety with the handling of your pet.
