Pet Travel Question: Bringing a Cat to Canada

Name: Joyce
Number of Pets: 1

To: Calgary, Canada

We're going to Calgary for five weeks. May we bring our tabby with us into the country if we comply with airline regulations?

Thanks,

Joyce
 

Hi Joyce,

Sure, you'll be able to bring your cat with you as long as you meet these pet import requirements for Canada -- basically an updated rabies vaccine and whatever the airline stipulates they need from you. In case your cat isn't used to a travel carrier, here are some tips for crate-training a cat. Also, since it sounds like you'll be returning to Houston, here are the pet import requirements for the United States.

Please let us know if you have any more questions, and enjoy your trip!
