I brought a Gibbon back to the US from Thailand. I checked all the different agencies with regard to exotic pets in Thailand and wound up with about 20 pages of permission. I had the gibbon since she was about a week old. I guess a Thai had shot its mother but then couldn’t find the baby. I had more trouble getting the gibbon IN the states than out of Thailand. Everything worked out well.

Hi Scott, am hoping you or one of your readers can shed some light on what I thought was going to be a simple process.

Could you suggest a reputable airline that I could travel will my chiwawa and yorkie along with my cat FROM Philippines to Toronto, Canada – I seem to be going around in circles. I’m open to any airline – however I cannot seem to get a straight answer as to how I go about booking through the airline (any will do) the most STRESS FREE yet economical way.

Cheers!.

Hello Scott

Thank you so much for your blog, before I saw your blog I thought it would be impossible to take my 2 most loved pet dogs to the philippines and hopefully next week were going the 3 of us to Manila. Thank you so much……………

Hi Again Mr, Scott,

I seem to have a trouble in get a health certificate and the certification about the rabies. My vet doesn’t speak English. I tried to explain in Thai but he said he don’t understand. Hahaha.. Can you send me a sample of those documents? I will show it him. Or I might be the one to make it and let him sign it. Here’s my email : aiai_21_pedroso@yahoo.com

It will be very much appreciated.

Hi Scott, I have not perused the back pages of comments yet but my issue is that we are currently living in India, have a cat we brought with us here from the states 3 1/2 years ago, and we are moving to Manila at the end of June. I KNOW there has been rabies within 20 kilometers of here in the last six months, it is not uncommon in many areas of India. If I am dealing with an honest vet, there is no way I an get a statement saying otherwise. Do you know if there are any alternatives for situations like this? Our cat has been a mostly indoor cat, but she does go out sometimes and I know she has been close to other cats, though not dogs. Thanks in advance for any help you, or anyone else, are able to give!

Hi Wardell,

It’s always hard for animals to fly. It’s up to you whether you choose to sedate him, I suggest discussing this with your vet. You will need to contact the airline to find out how much they charge per kilogram to work out the cost. Then you just need to follow the information in the article for other documentation and costs.

Hello Scott
How are you? I am planning to go to manilla in September 2011. I want to bring my Beagle with me instead of paying some $1000 to keep him. He is 9 years old. We will be flying from Chicago, IL to Korean to manilla. Will it be hard for him since its a 22 hours flight? His shots are updated and he is in good condition. How much money do I need? Thanks!
