[color=darkblue]Well, On one hand that is an issue, but even if that owner op did not have a cat do you really think his truck would smell much better?
[/quote] I know as it gets close to home time, it is time for me to break out the cleaning supplies because it's getting pretty stale in the truck, and that is bad considering I am anal about my truck being clean!

Several years ago I met an owner operator who took his passenger seat out of his truck so that he could put in a litter box for his cat. When you opened the door, the stench would knock you down. It didn't seem to bother him. I suppose that he was used to it. I don't know of another job where this would even be an issue.
There are extremes to everything, even being anal.... :lol: :lol:

Thinking back to when I first started trucking, I don't recall people taking their pets with them. This seems to have become more of an issue in recent years. Of course, back then we didn't have air conditioning in our trucks, either.
