BEFORE SENDING YOUR CAT ON A FLIGHT
UPDATED PAPERS FOR THE CAT/KITTEN REQUIRED
We require all cats/kittens to have all updated vaccinations/passports/rabies (when needed) for travel. The original documents must travel on the plane with the carrier and the pet. These include current Health Certificate, updated Vaccinations, Rabies (for some countries/check the current guidelines), and Passport. We have the sender or owner send us copies to verify the papers are up to date beforehand. For Cats/kittens needing Rabies the waiting period is 21 days after the rabies shot is administered to leave for its new owner. Read more about Importing/Exporting cats here:

WE TRAVEL USING THE STURDIBAG 2.0 SIZE LARGE
(THE BREEDER'S CHOICE IN TRAVEL CASES)
***We use the trusted Sturdibag 2.0 size large for all airplane flights which are always pre-sterilized before and after every trip to ensure a clean and safe standard for each animal who travels in our care. Breeders have used this travel case for a long time because of the safety and security it provides for cats and kittens. The animal is fully enclosed in the bag which provides them a feeling of security during travel and keeps them less stressed throughout the journey. All zippers are securely tied with an extra clasp. The bag also has areas of ventilation in the inner layer surrounded by an outer layer of the bag. It is easily opened to reveal a mesh lining so the animal can breath without the fear of the animal running out of the bag. A soft washable pad inside (can be washed at 60 degrees) is a great feature. The size large is the standard for all travel and provides animals up to 8 kilos with plenty of room during their journey. Owners have two options for travel carriers: either purchase a NEW Sturdibag for the trip using the link at the bottom of the page (BUY NOW) or send us an
e-mail (They will own this case after the trip is completed).
We are certifiably vaccinated against COVID 3 times with Moderna and have a digitally downloadable CORONA passport.
