Hi - if you do a search of the forum there are stacks of threads on this very subject, tons of useful info and I think a wikipedia as well. Takes about 7 months.

For pets check out the link. All you need to know is on the Defra site ...

Just to let you know, since you're only coming from Canada, you may just be able to do the pet transport piece yourself and not use a company. The companies are very expensive, and taking care of the process yourself can cost half as much, if not less.

The pet scheme process looks daunting at first, but it's just a matter of having the time (over six months) and then making sure you've taken care of all the details - use the defra website given above. I did it for two cats last year, and I've never been known as the most detail-oriented person! if I can do it, anyone can.

Just a thought.

Hi Family Guy

Where in Canada are you and where are you going back to? We used a company called MI Group to ship our furniture back they did a great job. I saw your posts in the Canada forum sorry to hear how you've been screwed over, hope things start to look up for you.:)
