Janice: this better work. If I get ravaged by one of my cats while doing this, I'm holding you responsible.

Howard seems pretty happy to is with a life at sea!
I have two 30-year old cats on board....change their oil every 150 hours.
LOL, Howard and Lilly would get on ok. Seriously Lilly is a PITA whether on the boat or at home. Every nook and cranny is fair game. Fortunately I've been able to keep her out of the engine room so far.

Note the "cat control device" (spray bottle) that isn't very effective anymore.

Ive had Jinx in the car a few times. He hated it. I want to have him loose maybe I just never wanted a mess if he went or since just me in the truck I do not want to have him in a bad area and I get distracted. Only one way to dimd out. He accepted me I think. Sleeps in my arm at night. My first cat kinda different then dogs ive alwayys been around but Jinx is the first animal i have ever had under a roof I lived in.One thing that has amazed me is the number of people who have cats that hate riding in cars, but love their boats. I've seen cats that start yelling just from the car engine starting. I think they just don't feel the movement or the sound on a boat like in a car.
Lots of cats travel.
Use a leash although for ours was no good as she could twist out of it in seconds regardless of the leash and harness type.
Question for you cat experts....
Is there a way to get cats claws back after cutting them? My admiral has one like that who would probably make a good boat cat, as much as I'm against it, but front claws would be nice.
No, to de-claw a cat they actually amputate the cats toe at the first joint.
Don't bring that cat on the boat and keep her/him in the house.

Oh, lighten up...
...... If anchored out near shore the tom would swim ashore for a night on the town. But in the morning he would sit on shore yowling until he rowed ashore and pick him up.......

Don't agree at all. We had several cats declawed and they did fine. Outside, climbed trees,.
Our last cat just missed 18 yrs and she spent 10 of those years aboard the boat and did just fine.
If you think de-clawing is ok, I suggest you cut the ends of your finger off first, then decide.
