You don't have to. Often horses can do without it. Although it would be more comfortable for their feet if there is some. Hay is a good idea for long travels, something to keep the horse busy on the way.

Is it safe to haul cattle in a horse trailer?
Typically you can safely haul cattle in a horse trailer, however there does tend to be more breakable parts in a trailer made specifically for horses than one made specifically for cattle. A horse trailer also tends to be slightly more confined with compartment areas for each horse, however these can usually be adjusted slightly to fit different sizes. If you will be hauling both cattle and horses in the same trailer it would be preferable to get a 'hybrid' trailer that is designed for both cattle and horses.

Typically horses won't load into trailer because they look like small dark caves, which frighten horses.
