International Shipping
Our cattery started cooperating with the most reliable European catteries. Therefore, we would like to introduce you to some of the worldwide shipping requirements to make your decision-making process easier.
AGE
When shipping a cat overseas it must be at least 4 months old as this is the age when it can safely receive a rabies vaccination, which is mandatory by the US pet import regulations.
REQUIREMENTS
- Flight booking
- The ISO Microchip
- Certification - pet passport that includes data about all received vaccinations and Health Certificate that was issued within 10 days of travel
- Crate (Size and Specifications) - Pets must be able to stand up, turn around comfortably and have at least 3 inches above the top of the head when standing in a natural position and must space to lie in a natural position without curling in the front legs. Crates must be hard case, non-collapsible, solid top, and bottom (no opening on top) and without wheels – “slide locking side fasteners” are NOT accepted.
The best option for food and water is plastic containers attached to a crate door.
You are allowed (not required) to put padding (towel, blanket or a piece cardboard) inside crate to provide cushion and dry bed.
Prohibited items - high-sided beds, water containers not attached to crate door, non-solid toys.
FLIGHT ARRANGEMENTS AND FEES
A buyer can choose to arrange shipping independently or use our cattery's shipping service. In any case shipping expenses are covered by a buyer. Shipping costs may vary depending on airline price changes. The shipping cost does not include customs clearance fees.
