I've got a good question. I'm moving from Florida to Tennessee. And were looking at aleast 14 hour drive. And yes, I'm taking my babies with them. Any good ideas on how to ship them ? All three are over 2 years old and I was thinking that I should get some carriers and just keep a spray bottle of water and just check on them and make sure there not cold or too dry. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

if u can't carry them in water u can soak a towel and put it in a box with them..when u stop for a break, put them in water so they can do their business then put them on the towel once more..make sure they don't get bumped or something on the way..

good luck and bon voyage Smile

I don't know about shipping. I'm sure 14 hour drive can't be worse then UPS. Besides I want to monitor them, and if someone else has them and hurts them, I will be more then mad. The other reasons I can't is if my friends get there, they have to wait for me cause I go the tank Smile

P.s. Thanks for the suggestions.

Fayetteville. It will be cool cause I've only been out of Florida 3 times. All three were to Georgia. I've never even seen snow.
