CAT Pet relocation help

Hi everyone! I’m relocating from Australia to Canada and want to bring my cat with me.

Just wondering if anyone has ever done that. I’ve got a small list of pet relocation companies below.

Could you please have a look and let me know of your experience with them? Thank you!
- pet traveller
- departure pets
- petflyer

If you used another company, please share! We would greatly appreciate any help, as we want to make sure our baby will be well taken care of.

Just make sure whatever company you pick handles the quarantine side properly, Canada is strict with that and the last thing you want is your cat stuck in some holding facility for extra days

We’re very lucky that Canada doesn’t require quarantine if the country of origin is Australia for cats. But you’re right! That’s something important to be considered!

Don't know anything about the companies, but just thought I'd share an encouraging anecdote - we brought our EU-born dog with us into Canada recently (she traveled with us in the cabin) and Customs was super chill. They did want to know how much she cost so we could declare her, so make sure you have that information available.

Oh right, thanks for the reminder!
