4 key rules for bringing pets on the HSR<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. The carrier must be placed in front of your seat<\/strong> Your pet must remain inside the carrier for the entire journey \u2014 you cannot take them out. The carrier should be placed on the floor in front of your seat.<\/li>\n
  2. Dangerous or odorous animals are not permitted<\/strong> Animals such as birds, snakes, lizards, and other potentially dangerous or strong-smelling animals are not allowed on board.<\/li>\n
  3. HSR rules for pet strollers<\/strong> If a pet stroller meets the HSR’s size requirements (total length + width + height not exceeding 220 cm, weight not exceeding 40 kg), it may be stored in the luggage area. If it exceeds these limits, a full-price ticket must be purchased and the stroller placed in front of your seat.<\/li>\n
  4. TRA pet stroller restrictions<\/strong> TRA requires pet strollers to be within the specified dimensions (length within 150 cm, total of length + width + height within 220 cm). Strollers that exceed these limits must travel on designated trains and require a half-price ticket.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    5 things to prepare before traveling with your pet<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. Get your pet used to the carrier in advance<\/strong> Start familiarizing your pet with the carrier at least a week ahead \u2014 place some of your clothing or their favorite toys inside to make it feel less unfamiliar.<\/li>\n
    2. Avoid feeding before departure<\/strong> Withhold food for 6\u20138 hours beforehand to reduce the chance of motion sickness and vomiting. Motion sickness medication may also be prepared if needed.<\/li>\n
    3. Bring comfort items<\/strong> When using a pet backpack or carrier on the HSR, place your pet’s favorite toy inside or drape a cloth over it to help ease anxiety.<\/li>\n
    4. Keep travel time as short as possible<\/strong> Choose the quickest transport option available to minimize stress from a long journey.<\/li>\n
    5. Tire them out before you leave<\/strong> Play with your pet or take them for a walk about 2 hours before departure to burn off energy \u2014 they’ll be more likely to rest during the trip.\"\"<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Conclusion and recommendations<\/h2>\n

      While it is possible to bring your pet on the HSR or other public transport, the journey can often cause anxiety, stress, or even physical discomfort for your furry friend \u2014 adding extra hassle to your trip. We recommend considering an in-home pet sitter service instead, so your pet can relax in the comfort of familiar surroundings while you travel with complete peace of mind!<\/p>\n
