ha - I am sticking in NY due to Mother's health but when the time comes I may be up for some warmer weather - but I CANNOT imagine traveling with my 3 cats any length of distance. They are bad enough fighting them into a carrier and getting them on the bus for a 15 minute ride to the vets. Howls, hissing and a couple of accidents ... LOL by the end of the bus ride - what was initially said "oh what a beautiful cat" becomes a move to the other side of the bus hehe. Good luck!!!
