11. I second the advice to do a trial run
Give them whatever drug the vet prescribes and then take them for a drive just to see how they react.

I drove with a cat about 1500 miles and the "kitty Prozac" had the exact OPPOSITE of the intended effect. The damn cat went insane. He howled like someone was stabbing him. The second day, I didn't give him anything and he was much more calm.

Also, try to get them used to whatever carrier they'll be in so that it's at least somewhat familiar to them...and reward them any time you put them in it.
