Another possibility that I had
good luck with, one time years ago, before 9-11, is the freight airlines...I
think it was Airborne Express that we used....
Because there are no people
passengers the animals fly 1st class...right up front with the crew....last to
board and 1st off with special handling all the way...If there is a flight
going between the 2 airport involved you might want to ask about that..
I
got to pick up a young puppy once...It was an extra hot day and I was
concerned that he would be left stuck in some hot spot but they pointed out
the plane landing from the warehouse office where I was to pick him up and it
was no time at all before a van with several animals drove up...They all
seemed well and happy....
As far as stress goes...Its a much
shorter time...and if no body tells the animal he is 3 miles off the ground
with less stop and go it may be a good way to
go....

Hi Sally
You could consider renting
a car...Last time I did it was about $100 per day with unlimited
milage...No ware and tare on your car...You may break even when doing a
lot of miles quickly....
I bet the meezer will be glad to
be home ....

Hi Jenn . . .I had calculated that it would
be about a 12 hour drive each way . . .which is "doable" . . .but I
don't trust my car that much . . .I don't know if my car would make it .
. .the good news is that I think we have it worked out . . .I'm going to
fly to Nashville, and Kara will meet me there.
There are still a few more details to be
worked out . . .but right now I'm more hopeful that we'll be able to
work it out. If Kevin and Lucky are found (two feral FIV kitties),
then I will drive to Knoxville at that time . . .will just have to have
some work done on my car before I can do that.
Thanks for your input . . .it's good to
know where the speed traps are . . .that information will come in handy
if and when I drive to Knoxville!
Take care,
Sally
