| snoozer seat So I'm happy I just got the snoozer car seat, but Bella has done nothing but attack it (biting, digging) since I showed it to her...any advice to use it without her killing it? |

| It might just take her getting used to it. Do you have it sitting in the house, or is it out in the car? If it's not in the house, bring it in and sit it on the floor so she can sniff it out. I put a few treats in mine to get my kiddos to see it as a good place Good luck Pictures, please, when you can get Bella to sit in it!!!

| My girls love the Snoozer car seat I got for them. I kept it in the house at first and they began using it as a bed. From what I understand this helps them to adjust to it quicker so when you put it in the car they are used to it which in turn helps decrease their anxiety on trips. It seemed to work that way for my girls. |

| Mrs. Beasley's car seat was in the house for a bit also. I put toys in it, gave her treats, and played around it. Then I put it in the car and gave her a treat. And just made a big deal out of her being a good girl. (Did this about three of four times) Then finally time for a ride ... she doesn't want to sit with me now. She would rather be in the seat.

Max Main's Mamma Donating YT Member | Which one did you get? I don't have one yet, but have been looking. I am sure she will end up loving it. Keep us posted.

| Gracie sometimes does that to things that come into the house that have a strange new smell on it. Maybe try to make it smell more familiar to her so it does not seem so strange and new to her. Leave it in your home when not using in the car. |

| I had it in the house at first. I had to put Hot Rod in it as he was too little to jump up in it. lol He took to it pretty much right away.

| For those who asked, I got the Snoozer Lookout I Pet Car Seat (small...up to 18 lbs)...you can get it several places, but I ordered it online from Petco. I think it will work out well...just gotta keep gently introducing it with treats |
