As we head into Autumn, we thought it was time to catch you up with a round-up of pets on the move around Europe over the summer. From France, Italy, Portugal and Switzerland to Greece, England and Scotland, these dogs, cats and even a hamster are all well travelled. And none more so than the cats in our final story, whose trip took them from Azerbaijan to London by way of Paris.

Kitty and Berta, 2 cats from Italy to Scotland

Art’s gorgeous cats, Kitty and Berta, travelled with us from Rome. We noticed one pet passport was out of date, so Art organised a new one. The cats sat out the waiting time for the passport to become valid in Calais. As soon as we could, we scooped them up and drove them to Elgin for a reunion with Art, who wrote to say:

“Both cats are settling in and exploring the new house. Berta looks a bit grumpy in the photo but is doing fine. Kitty is already exploring the yard and tried escaping out a 2nd floor window. She has never been described as calm, and when you mentioned ‘calm’ we were wondering if the wrong cat would be delivered! They are both doing well and thank you for transporting them!”

Jasper and Maple, 2 cats from Azerbaijan to London via Paris

When Steve was ready to relocate back to England from Azerbaijan, he booked his fabulous cats Jasper and Maple onto a flight to Paris Charles de Gaulle. We were on hand to collect them from the airport and drive them to their new home in London.

Stairs are still a novelty for Jasper and Maple, but Steve reports they're getting the hang of them!
