First Days On Board

We made it to Florida and on Sava and have been living aboard for two days and nights. The adventure has already begun! Here is what it’s been like in our first days on board our new-to-us 46 foot sailboat.

Dommie on the Go

Introducing our cat Domino, who is joining us on our boat! We couldn’t leave this bundle of sweetness behind in Toronto. She likes warm weather and the sun. We’re not so sure how she’ll handle the sea and the movement bur hoping it goes well for all of us! Our little family is doing this together, me, Brian and Dommie on the Go!

Adventures of Dommie on The Go

In the next week, Domino is going to take her first plane trip in a carrier underneath the seat. I’m a little worried about how she likes it, but we have to get her to Florida somehow! Then we’ll introduce her to her new home, Sava. For a cat who has lived in the same home for 10 years, this will be an adventure for Domino too.

Domino’s Personality

We think Domino’s personality will help her get used to this new life. She’s playful but also relaxed, and she’s friendly. We all need to be friendly as we start this new life on a boat!

Cat on Board

We have no idea how Domino will fare, nor how we will, living aboard a 46foot monohull. What we do know is that other people have cats, dogs, and other pets, and kids, and disabilities on boats. We’ll figure it out and have fun doing it.

Do you have any tips for boating with a cat or other pet? Share in the comments. I’m sure Dommie on the go will appreciate them.
