Courier Ricardo made two trips to southern Europe, travelling with cats, dogs, a kitten and a tortoise.
Lilly, Mary and Teo, 3 dogs from the UK to Italy
Lilly started her journey in Sheffield, Mary hopped on board in Kent, and Teo set off from London.
We collected Breton Spaniel Lilly in Sheffield from Andrea. Lilly is on the right.
Lovely Lilly was a great traveller
A happy reunion for Lilly with owner Sylvia in Cosenza in southern Italy
Beautiful Collie cross Mary thrilled to see owner Tatiana in Naples
Naples is full of charming little streets like these
Darling Teo is a wire-haired Dachshund belonging to Giulia. He was warmly welcomed near Venice by Giulia’s parents.
Oscar, a cat from Italy to London
Handsome ginger tabby cat Oscar joined our trip near the picturesque Lake Como.

Cooper, a dog from Scotland to Spain
Charming Cooper started his journey in Aberdeenshire. We met up with him in Edinburgh and he travelled with us all the way to Moraira in Spain.
Cooper reunited with owner Alison in Spain
Cooper literally jumping for joy — or maybe for food!
A cat and a tortoise from the UK to Portugal
Cat Morgana and tortoise Jeffrey started their journeys in the UK. Morgana was heading to Lisbon, while Jeffrey’s destination was the Algarve.
Irresistible Morgana, a Scottish Straight, travelled from London
Leticia so happy to be reunited with Morgana in Lisbon
Jeffrey’s journey started in Buckinghamshire. He’s a Mediterranean Spur-thighed tortoise (also known as a Greek tortoise). They can live to 100 years or more!
Owner Annabel delighted to receive Jeffrey in Faro
Bobbi, a dog from Portugal to the UK
Jane’s dog Bobbi travelled with us from the Algarve to the UK.
Lively Bobbi, a Tibetan Terrier/Poodle cross, overjoyed to be reunited with Jane in Cheshire
A last-minute kitten from Portugal to France
This adorable kitten was a late addition to our trip, traveling from Lisbon to Besançon in France.
What a little cutie!
Arrival in France to a very excited owner
That’s another beautiful transport of amazing animals. But that look from Morgana, the Scottish Straight, is priceless…!!
Oh yes, she’s got the looks and the look!
Lovely travelers and owners and we always enjoy the reunions as well as seeing the sights on the journeys! The kitten is beyond precious…….
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
It was a big trip full of reunions. The kitten is gorgeous, not surprising the owner was very excited.
They all arrive safe and sound – that’s what I love about you people!!
Thanks GP, a busy one.
Loved this – and had forgotten the fact about the length of life for the tortoise!
I bet he would have lots of stories to tell…
There is a Galapagos tortoise that’s 188 years old…
I’m envious of your job. 🙂
Has its many +s!

There were some excited travellers on this trip!
I’m always so entertained by the names people give their pets and making a mental list as I go along. We had to say goodbye to our little kitty, Petals in July. It really knocked me down. We will adopt again after a house renovation though.
