My cat has started breathing heavily and panting in the car. What does this behaviour mean?

Sounds to me like your cat might be getting a little bit anxious or even stressed about the car travel.

There are a few things that you can do to help your cat in those situations. 

Using something like Feliway is really effective for relieving stress. 

But also, when they're in the carry cage, all you need to do is put a blanket over the cage. That can really help to calm your cat down and make it feel a lot better about its journey.
