Hi there,

If you are flying out of the UK then pets normally have to go as cargo and be booked through an agent. This is normally very expensive and can be stressful for the animals as they are put in the hold of the aircraft. Also depending on where you are flying from will depend on whether the pets are handled by experienced qualified staff or baggage handlers.

It is normally a lot less stressful to have pets moved by road. Have a look at our website and if you have any questions then send us an email or phone us. Our road transport service is always next day from UK to France, Spain and Portugal.

We will happily help.

Kind Regards

Paul

 You are more than welcome.

If you have any questions for us then we are more than happy to help. We have cared for elderly and sick animals for many years as we also run a boarding facility in the South of Spain. We are recommended by several local vets and we would be happy to discuss the requirements of your cat with you via email or over the phone.

Should you wish to email then use [email protected]

Should you wish to phone then the UK number will be cheaper.  01223 969 181

Hi, we had our cat transported  with pets euro travel @sky.com earlier this year, came down in her own cage with other animals, dogs etc, it looked like she'd had to stay in her cage most if not all of the trip, dogs you can take out and exercise, cats sadly not but she adjusted quickly enough and you wouldnt notice anything different in her behavious patterns.

She'd been in a local cattery in Saffron Walden and was picked up from there and transported here to the Almeria region a couple of days later.

We took our cat with us, booked a pet cabin on the ferry. She didn't like the journey at all, but at least we knew how she was doing the entire time because she was never out of our sight! She was in the cabin with us on the boat, and spent the entire car journey in someone's arms... đŸ˜»
