(70,795 posts)Nothing against those who work in various inns, but it is always best to protect your pack. It would be easy for the dog or cat to slip out when housekeeping comes in for various reasons.
I also inform the desk at check-in that I absolutely DO NOT want to be disturbed and I hang the card on the doorknob to cut down on bs intrusions into my peace. Doing so will likely cut down on unwanted barking as your pupper will likely be in protective mode traveling with her or his pack.
Kitties generally do not travel well. As one article I read explained it, dogs are at home wherever their pack is. Cats not so much. Cats' whole world is their territory, so traveling can be disconcerting.
Perhaps someone else can rec a good pheremone spray for you to spritz on a paper towel or wash cloth and place in with your kitty. Out vet acupuncturist uses it and, if you want, I can call to inquire about the brand they use, although they could take a couple of days to get back to me, as their hours are not "normal."
Happy tails and trails!
