on the road with Animalcouriers

Animalcouriers are back from a pet transport trip to Germany, Denmark and Sweden with adorable cats and dogs.

Pipoca and Lua, two cats from Chester to Hamburg

Sonia’s beautiful cats travelled with us from Chester to the northern Germany city of Hamburg.

Gorgeous Pipoca

We love Lua’s nose!

Sonia’s son Miguel was on hand to receive the cats in Hamburg

Karma, a cat from London to Germany

Cornelia’s delightful black-and-white puss Karma made the journey with us from London to Greifswald in Germany.

Splendid Karma

Thor and Chewie, two cats from Nottingham to Sweden

Great mates Thor and Chewie belong to Mario. We collected them in Nottingham and transported them to Lund in Sweden.

Magnificent Thor

Sweet-natured Chewie

Alice, a dog from London to Sweden

Charming Border Terrier Alice is a returning Animalcouriers client. She travelled with us from the UK to stay with her grandparents just south of Stockholm, where she’s doubtless looking forward to long walks and lots of treats.

Dear Alice homeboarded with us for a little while, and made herself very comfortable!

Alice jumping for joy on seeing her grandparents again. Hopefully they’re used to keeping up with her energy levels!

Pippin and Merry, two cats from Denmark to London, flying to Australia

We collected this absolutely stunning pair of Orientals from a cattery near Aarhus. Owner Ashley has gone on ahead to Australia, and her cats have had to wait out the regulation period before they can fly out to join her. We transported them to London where they were due to board a Qantas flight to their final destination.

Sweet and sociable, Pipkin and Merry are a very bonded pair

There were many wooden carvings to admire

Mimi, a cat from Denmark to Derbyshire

Mimi was waiting for us with Charlotte in the Danish town of Gørlose. Mimi travelled with us to rejoin owner Lisa in Matlock.

Lovely alert Mimi

We stopped for the night at a hotel in Schwerin, by the side of the lake. In the hotel grounds we came upon a herd of brightly painted rhinos.

Millie, a dog from Cape Verde via Cologne to the UK

On our way through Germany we stopped in Cologne to collect sweet little Millie, who’d flown in from Cape Verde. When Josephine was on holiday there last year, she volunteered to walk dogs from the local shelter. She completely fell for Millie and decided to adopt her.

Once all of Millie’s paperwork and blood tests were finalised, Josephine travelled back to Cape Verde to collect her. She and Millie flew into Cologne, where we met them to take Millie the rest of the way to her new home with Josephine in Wales.
