Catherine Lasked

I see the Australian Government BioSecurity guidelines for importing dogs from Category 3 countries require blood tests to be done to check for certain diseases. How is this arranged? Who determines if the BioSecurity requirements are met?

1 answer
Jetpets
Jetpets A.Jetpets

Hi Catherine,
Thanks for reaching out. You are correct, a range of blood tests are required when pets are entering Australia from Category 3 countries. We advise to contact your local vet to arrange the blood testing – your vet will then refer the blood (once drawn) to a testing lab (in the same country for Category 3 countries). If we are taking care of your pets movement, we will check the blood work to make sure it meets the Australian Government BioSecurity requirements (and will send through guidance documents to provide to your vet before the testing to help ensure compliance).
For further information please contact one of our specialist Pet Travel Consultants who can take you through the process step by step. You can reach out via email - [email protected]
Thanks,
Jetpets

Chadasked

My puppy is being transported from Queensland to Tasmania, which is 9 and a half hours of time. Does he get a chance to stretch his legs or pee, or is he expected to pee in his cage? It seems sad that he would be expected to pee in his cage. Only being a puppy he won’t be able to hold for 9 and a half hours.

Mareeasked

l have to cats to relocate from Perth to Melbourne at end of December this year, they are both 10yrs old and indoor cats which are very nervous when it comes to travel and strange places they tend to meow non stop just to take them to the vet wanting them to travel on same plane as myself, l am very nervous about them travelling would like some advise from anyone else with a similar situation on nervous cats what to do?

2 answers

Hi Maree, firstly i recommend you keep all vaccinations up to date with the cats as stress from transport can cause immune suppression and increase the propensity for animals to get sick. Occasionally cats with asymptomatic infections such as herpes virus infection can also recrudesce with clinical signs. The best strategy for nervous cats is firstly to include as much familiarity as possible in their travelling arrangement, for example, if possible have them both crated in the same(bigger) crate rather than two separate crates. You would have to check with the pet transport company on what can be included with the cats in the crate - blankets/ toy etc. Something with a familiar scent will work well too. You can also prepare in advance by 'crate training' them. If you are getting your own transport crate, start way in advance with training both the cats to enter comfortably in the crate and associate this with something positive, perhaps a food treat inside the crate or a catnip toy. The more time you spend training in preparation for the travel, the better the outcome. On the night before the travel, you can consider using a calming diffuser (feliway) while crating the cats overnight. This will reduce its anxiety.

Jetpets A.Jetpets

Hi Maree, thanks for your question! We safely and comfortably transport cats to their new homes each and every day. In saying that we understand that you’re nervous when it comes to travel, because we talk to other pet owners like yourself all the time. Everything we do is focused on the welfare, comfort and safety of your loved ones. Pets travel in airline approved travel crates, perfectly sized for their comfort and safety. We could even organise delivery of the travel crates prior to travel so that your cats can benefit from becoming familiar with their home away from home. Our resident vets also recommend Feliway products for cat travel. We suggest you contact Jetpets on 1300 668 309 and have a Pet Travel Consultant step you through exactly what’s involved and all the measures we take, and in doing so we are confident it will put your mind at ease. Good luck with your move!

Question: On a long haul from Sydney to Ireland with the stop over in Dubai how are they handled in Dubai? I have been told horror stories of pets sitting for hours on tarmac and that they just get thrown around in Dubai by the baggage handlers. I'm feeling very anxious about the flight but really anxious about the care given along the way.

1 answer
Jetpets
Jetpets A.Jetpets

Hi Wesley, thanks for your question. You can be rest assured that pets are well looked after. Airline regulations require pets to have a minimum 6 hour stopover in Dubai. During this time the pets are provided a comfort stop where they are taken out of their travel crates, and placed in a secure air conditioned area where they can stretch their legs, and are provided with food and fresh water. Their travel crates are cleaned so that they are comfortable throughout their connecting flight to Dublin. We hope that answers your question, the team at Jetpets.

Hi Kerry we flew our 10 week mini dachshund from Alice Springs to Hobart. Involved temperatures high 30s and they were great. Tested her in Melbourne and excercised her there. She arrived in great condition. Had conversations with staff out of hours and all issues were dealt with in a timely and comprehensive manner. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Christelasked

Our dogs left on flight from Sydney to Johannesburg, South Africa.
I provided new blankets and toys to accompany them. Firstly, we had to buy new cages. The ones used to Australia, were not good to leave Australia? No examples provided as to how the padding inside cage will look. We were on the same flight and met the dogs as they arrived at cargo area. You told us that in SA they might discard the blankets as it will be soiled. Well, they opened the cages in front of us and their blankets and toys were not in it. Why would they discard it and not the fleece you provided???
See next message as place is to small

Jetpets A.Jetpets

Hi Christel, thanks for your question.

All airlines reserve the right to discard soiled toys and bedding throughout your pets journey to optimise comfort. As our fleece bedding lines the bottom of the travel crate, this may be why these were not affected should there be a few layers.
Jetpets can confirm our crates are in regulation with IATA transport standards and are accepted by all domestic and international airlines. Some governments and departure ports are more strict than others hence why we were unable to use your previous crates for transport from Australia.

We hope this helps to answer your enquiry.

Christel
Christel

The fleece is insufficient to absorb the urine and it sas soaked. A few layers would have helped. If you send your pet for 14 hour flight and received it dripping of urine and
shivering of cold, you will understand my disgust with the treatment of our dogs. Maybe the IATI transport standards should be raised.
The crates and travel on same airline between the same Countries were used.
A horrific experience for us and our dogs!
