Re: Animals/pets/waddaya do?
Look - I know you replied to your own posting earlier so don't do coy with me!! Hubby says pretend to ship cat, buy look alike in New Zealand - kids will be none the wiser, you'll be £1,000 richer! Or buy look aloike kids and take the cat?! When are you going and where?

Is it worth it? Has anyone taken their pets? Do they need to be steam cleaned/machine washed? Do they need pussy passports? Do they smile or not on their picture? :) :) I'm lol here,but it's a serious question. i never realised that my pussy needed a passport!! ;) We brought our cat & shes 10 with a touch of athritis in one hip, she's like a new bloody cat here, leaps & jumps all over the place. Our kids were thrilled that she came (she spent 6 weeks in a cattery in wellington, they alos picked her up from airport for us too, highly recommend them if you need them) to ship her here we used passport for pets http://www.passportforpets.co.uk/ cost about £500, our vet did all the vets stuff in the uk, very easy to do |

I'm interested in the £££ quotes and what people have already paid to ship dog. Danny it's true the kids are happy if they have familiar things around them. But if you can't afford to ship cat tell them he wouldn't be happy in nz and you'll get a cat when you arrive there. :) h. |

Thought you'd like the price ;) good service there too & the crate was free, have kept it for Civil Defence emergencies!!! :D |
Re: Animals/pets/waddaya do?
Slight problem also is no-one will have him here,so feel slightly obliged,not to mention the rented property problem. Can't I lie and anaesthetise him,say he's dead and we're gonna get him stuffed,then bring himround when the man's buggered off?
How long do they get quarantied for? |

How long do they get quarantied for? They don't get quarantied anymore, just supposed to have 4 weeks indoors at a registered address, this is why we put ours in the cattery, til we found a rental |

Also it gives the Kiwis a good laugh when you mention how much you spent to bring the cats over ! peter |
