Transporting My Leo

[Scott&Nikki]

OK, so I live at school with my girlfriend, and we are going home for about a week for Christmas and all that. I am going to need to bring my leo home for the 1 hour drive. What is the safest way to do this? I am guessing I should not keep him in his tank for the drive because of the possibility of things moving around. I need some suggestions, thanks in advance.

Put it in a plastic bowl a lid and papertowels to hide under, when I take mine to the vet I even tape a hot hands to the bottom of the bowl.

Edit make sure the bowl has holes in it for air.

I just drove one for an hour today. I warmed up a cooler in the car using the heater, then added a couple of muscle warming pads, the kind you stick to your back. The heating pads don't get too warm, and they put out heat for eight hours. I just buckled the cooler into a seat belt , added the Leo, and drove. I checked on him a few times to make sure he didn't get too warm and had enough air, and he seemed to take the trip okay.

Thanks, sounds good to me!

Thanks for the heating pad tip! I need to drive 7 hours with mine in a few weeks and I live in Michigan!
