Just like researching documents in advance is a wise decision making a list of what to pack early on can save pet owners a lot of headaches and grief. “If you are scrambling the night before a trip- running to the pet store and trying to grab as many items as you can it’s probably not the best idea- especially if you are flying,” Animal Planet host Dan Schachner explained during May 6 interview.
As
previously mentioned pets may need certain medications while travelling and
being sure these meds can enter the country is highly important. It is also
important to make sure you have enough meds to get your pet through the trip.
Other general upkeep items may be required such as nail clippers, brushes,
dental care items, ear cleansers and grooming supplies. Any liquids may be
regulated by border security and may not be allowed on aeroplanes in certain
quantities. An emergency first-aid kit
is always a good idea for any travelling pet.
