A normally crated pet should continue to have access to the crate while travelling. Most cats and dogs see it as a safe place. We have one older cat that willingly enters the crate to travel. The 5-month old kitten, not at all, and he expresses his displeasure from the back seat. However, we leave the opened crate on the floor at home and he's starting to enter it voluntarily. Our nervous Sheltie was crate-trained as a puppy, but now he just sits quietly on the back seat. If we had a MH we'd probably crate him. Bottom line is animals all have different personalities and you never know how they'll react.
