Two Animalcouriers trips left the UK, with pets on their way to France, Spain and Portugal. Here you can meet all the passengers travelling with us on both trips. Courier Marc took in France and part of northern Spain, while couriers M and J continued further south to Portugal.

Monkey and Mooshka

This pair of Siamese cats are travelling with us from Whitstable in Kent to Eymet in France’s Dordogne region. True to their breed’s reputation, they sang all the way!

Delightful Monkey and Mooshka

Boo Boo

Pretty tortie Boo Boo is a sweet-natured girl. We collected her in London for her trip to the Tarn region in France.

Laid-back traveller Boo Boo

Max

Max is a delightful Bearded Collie, collected by us from Wey Farm Boarding Kennels in Surrey. He’s on his way to join Robert and family in the Hérault region of France.

Irresistible Max

A very happy family reunion for Max in Valros

Pepe

Cute Chihuahua Pepe belongs to Carolina and family, who’re leaving London and returning to Barcelona in Spain. Carolina asked us to deliver Pepe to her mum, who’ll take care of him until Carolina catches up.

Vera and Mog

Gorgeous black-and-white cats Vera and Mog are relocating with owner Alice from Leeds to Barcelona.

Both cats have stunning markings

…and love to snuggle up for the journey

Luna

Lovely Lab Luna travelled with us from County Wexford, Ireland, to rejoin her family in Valencia, Spain.

Luna loves her walks, and is very well behaved

She leapt and bounded for joy when she was reunited with her family. Here’s courier M helping Christine and her children Elena and Albert to sort out Luna’s collar and lead, as she wriggled in all directions.

Result!

Louis, Oscar, Archie and Maisie

This family of four charming little Yorkies belong to Kym and her husband, who asked us to transport their dogs from Peacehaven in East Sussex to Rojales in Spain, where they’re holidaying for the summer.

Maisie and Oscar

Louis and Archie

They’re a bright-eyed gang of big little characters

We love seeing the look on a client’s face change from anxious waiting to excitement as they see our van turn up. Here’s Kym with Louis and Archie…

… and Kym and her husband with Maisie and Oscar

Ollie

Delightful Border Terrier Ollie is on his way from Hampshire to join owner Carol in Pilar de la Horadada in Alicante.

Ollie has a wonderful wiry coat

He travelled happily in one of our ‘top bunk’ bedrooms, with a great view of everything going on around him

A happy reunion with Carol. We love Ollie’s ‘phantom of the opera’ markings

Bertie and Twiglet

Bertie, another lovely Lab, and his feline chum Twiglet travelled with us from Bath in Somerset to Torre-Pacheco in Murcia.

Adorable Twiglet was a calm and relaxed passenger

Much excitement and quite a sizeable welcoming committee as we drew up. The children were delighted that the last two very important members of the family had arrived.

Twiglet quite vocal on being reunited — ‘home at last’ seemed to be the cry

Serious tummy rubs were the order of the day for Bertie

We heard from Jen on Twitter: “Thank you for delivering Bertie & Twiglet so safely. They’ve both settled in really well and we think them having a calm, safe journey here was key!”

Benji

Handsome Patterdale Terrier Benji, who hails from Devon, was also on his way to Murcia. We delivered him to kennels where he’ll wait for owner Mimi to catch up.

Lively Benji

Goku, aka Mickey

Goku, also known as Mickey, is an adorable Akita puppy heading to Ali in Marbella. Goku homeboarded with courier J for a few days before our trip set off.

He enjoyed helping to water the plants

Here’s proof — wet paw prints from tramping through the tomatoes!

Deep sleeps were called for in between all those periods of mischief!

Meeting another of our passengers, Luna, while out walking. He just wanted to play!

Goku was so excited at seeing Ali he didn’t know what to do with himself. Ali did his best to hang on tight!

At last, a calmer cuddle

Spotted on our way to Jerez

A rather marvellous stork sculpture in front of a midwifery centre

Another splendid artwork — metal tree with glass adornments

We reached Jerez in time to witness the blood moon phenomenon. Here’s the start of the eclipse, with Mars also visible.

Clear blue skies greeted us the next morning

Lexi and Oscar

A delightful pair of Cavapoos, Lexi and Oscar belong to June. She’s spending the summer with her son in Manilva, Spain, and asked us to transport her beloved dogs to join her there.

Continuing the theme of happy reunions, here are Oscar and Lexi with June. When they spotted her waiting at the gate for them, they could hardly contain themselves!

Morley and Cookie

These beautiful cats are making the journey from Wales to Oliveira de Azemeis to be reunited with owners Sara and Marco.

Super tabby Morley

Gentle Cookie was very shy and spent the first day hiding. Now she’s happy to come out for a chat.
