We didn't bring the trailer because we had just one night there. Now we have a reason to visit the area again, bring the trailer, and stay for a few days-I would like to see those huge trees for myself. I read on another blog or maybe FB of someone who had a 'thunder jacket' for their cat. You may want to see if it would help Rosie.
