Ohio to Florida is a very long drive for a stressed out kitty. I would consider the use of pharmaceuticals to relieve the anxiety associated with this trip. There are drugs that can both relieve stress and / or tranquilize scrappy for moderated to extended periods of time. Also, you are speaking about a harness. Are you not intending on placing Scrappy in a crate / cat carrier for the trip? I would definitely reconsider if this is your plan, as this sort of confinement will certainly make Scrappy feel more comfortable. You can also add something like a Feliway spay to the carrier, which is a pheromonal substance designed to keep cats calmer. Hope this helps and good luck with your move!

For that long of a ride, I would highly recommend the use of a carrier. Although free roaming may seem like it would make your kitty more comfortable, giving a cat a secure, small, and dark location is something the best thing you can do for them. It will allow it to relax more easily, which is exactly what cats want to do in unusual and out of the ordinary situations like the one it is about to experience. I would also recommend using a product like Feliway, a feline pheromone product that can be placed inside the carrier or in the car. It has a calming effect on many kitties. Lastly, there are drugs that can be used for events such as this that will calm your kitty down for a few hours if you think that might be necessary. They are generally safe and pretty effective. Hope this helps.

That's cool that the recovery suit will work for her then. The cost of crates vary by location, so I would check costs in pet stores, as well as checking online sites that resell things (like Ebay if you have that in Bosnia & Herzegovina). You may be able to buy one second hand. Yes, she can eat her regular food :-)

I recommend foods that follow WSAVA guidelines which includes Hill’s Science Diet, Purina, Royal Canin, Iams and Eukanuba. There is some evidence that wet food may have some health benefits - many cats do best on a combo. I would recommend using mealtime to help get her used to having he harness out on. If it’s possible to put it on in stages you could slowly get her used to it. The trick is to go slow and stop if she’s getting upset. https://www.wsava.org/WSAVA/media/Arpita-and-Emma-editorial/Selecting-the-Best-Food-for-your-Pet.pdf

Yes, the can sure break their teeth biting on the cage. I cannot tell if this happened without examining him myself. You would need to have a vet examine him in person. I don't know if these things are available in Saudi Arabia or if it is possible for you to purchase from Amazon in the U.S. and have it shipped to you. 1. A soft sided carrier so he can't hurt his teeth if he bites it: ( https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Black-Soft-Sided-Pet-Carrier/dp/B00QHC01C2/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=soft+cat+carrier&qid=1562502762&s=gateway&sr=8-4 ) 2. Feliway Spray to spray inside the carrier 15 minutes before using it: ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018BVZFG8?aaxitk=Ekmi9JETZULuWIK4.R2xYA&pd_rd_i=B018BVZFG8&pf_rd_p=9420597b-7dad-4cbd-a28d-7d676ac67378&hsa_cr_id=2708538710301&sb-ci-n=productDescription&sb-ci-v=Ceva%20Feliway%20Spray%20(60%20mL)&sb-ci-a=B018BVZFG8 ) 3.
