Alice M Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hello, I am moving to London in 2 months and trying to find the best way to take my cat with me. I have received a quote from Pettravelle for $5874.00 which is too expensive for me. I also am a first time pet owner and it is my first time planning to relocate a pet. I will appreciate any suggestion on how to relocate my cat in the most cost effective way. Thank you, Alice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Alice That price sounds right compared to what we paid two years ago, but get another couple of quotes just to compare. It can be done a little cheaper if you arrange everything yourself, but personally, I would never take that risk. It's a complicated procedure exporting an animal and best left to the experts. Even more so now due to covid. So many things can go wrong, flight delays, missing paperwork, missed a date for a vaccination etc etc. It's a massive risk to do this yourself.

rammygirl Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 From reading posts on here you are not going to get much change from $5k. You might need to consider re homing your cat ......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Even if you do it yourself, you're not going to save much. It's always more expensive to fly a pet than it is to fly yourself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERYSTORMY Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Get another couple of quotes. Try Dogtainers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LKC Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Try Dogtainers. We paid $6630 for four cats (in two crates) from Sydney to Scotland about 3.5 years ago. Great service from them, cats arrived safely. They were just moggies though, not a special breed (I don't know if that affects things).
