Hello, sorry to hear about Sammy. There are medications to help with motion sickness such as meclizine, dramamine, cerenia, amongst others. These will need to be prescribed by your veterinarian. When you plan on traveling with your cat next, contact your veterinarian about obtaining a motion sickness prescription for Sammy. Hope this helps and best of luck.
