This southern jewel state is rich in culture  and many types of lifestyles and activities. From the swamps in the Bayou country, the wooded and plantation area in the north to the great city of New Orleans, the state is unlike any other. A romantic state with its Voodoo, pirates, and Mardi Gras gives it a mystical appeal. Louisiana was settled by the French in 1682  still giving it a French flair. Cajun country in the southern part of the state is almost cut off from civilization with its coastal marshes and inland swamps. Seafood is king here so be sure to indulge in the many fine restaurants.

Moving Pets

On average Americans move every 7 years and the lifespan of a pet may be 10- 20 years. It is highly likely that during your pet's lifetime you will be moving or relocating. If you have a pet or pets as part of your family you will need to remember that they are just like people, they also get as stressed out as we do when moving. In fact in many instances they may be more stressed as the home is generally their habitat and pets are very sensitive to a change in their habitat. Pets can also become very frightened when faced with strange situations. With careful organization and planning the move process can be made easier and less stressful for both you and your pet. Read VanLines.com's helpful guide which provides tips and advice to help you and your pet through this stressful process.
