Migrating to Au
Hello guys,
I have a question and I hope someone can help me with it. I have 3 cats (adopted from a rescuer in Cyberjaya) and been with me the last 2 years. I'll be moving to Au and wanted to bring my 3 cats with me. I visited the AQIS website on the pets migrating program in Au website, but it seems to be a tedious job nevertheless, I would still like to bring them with me. I was wondering if any of you pet lovers, friends or family has moved to Au and had brought their pets with them to enlighten me on the best way to deal with the situation? is it better for me to do on my own (which I didnt want my pets to hang in the air incase I miss out any important document, chose the correct vet to get their RNAT etc etc) or shall I appoint a pet mover professional? I love my cats to bits but my partner is a rational thinker.
Would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Re: Migrating to Au
If I'm not wrong a rabies titer test & Nipah Virus blood test is require for entry to Australia & there will be a 6 mths quarantine too. Shud you want to scout around first for pet handler fee you can pm me for my regular agent contact number.
Anyway, the whole process is not gonna be cheap plus the 6 mths quarantine charges in Australia.

Re: Migrating to Au
I wont mind to recommend AMC even if expensive for some.
At least I know my pets are in good hands. They have vets.
My expat neighbors and friends including my in laws & my parents don't have any problems as long as they have money to spend and don't care how much it costs for the well being of the pets.
They will assist also the pet owners and no unknown extra charges had encountered so far.
Their main focus is to transport pets in the most safest way possible.
There are some pet owners who only think the welfare of their pets rather than the costs.
I just recommend based on friends/in laws/my family's experienced with their services, it is only up to Megaav's decision.
AMC can provide the quotation to Megaav for reference as well.

Re: Migrating to Au
Hi Coony,
Thank you for your suggestion. Sorry for the delayed response. Been really tied up and now I have 5 cats :) So, this means I either give 2 of the cats (which I recently rescued) for adoption and take my other 3 cats with me. Btw, It would be great if you could give me the agent details for me to check up.
