Paige keeps her litter box and food & water dishes in a corner of the tent. We got a mat at Petsmart to go under it, a sort of kitty doormat that collects most of the litter from her feet. When we start out she is usually nervous in the car and complains a bit for the first few miles, then seems to settle down and enjoy the camping experience. When we pack up to come home she does not mind the car at all. Our tent has a floor which is a plus. Otherwise her getting out under the edge would be a concern. Paige would love to go exploring at night but might get lost.
I checked at a fabric shop to see if they have tent fabric to close up the mesh on the one side of our tent that does not close. We need to do that for an A/C or a heater to do much good. The shop has rip-stop nylon that should work well. We wish our tent already had a closable flap for that area. The one I want to make would cover the mesh side that snaps around the teardrop doorway and fits around the wheel/fender area. I am thinking a combination of zippers and Velcro to attach it. Patricia has said she will teach me to sew. The sewing and learning how will take some time, but having finished work on the electrical system I need a new project.
