Important notes for pet cat transport:

1. Cats need to be transported in special plastic shipping crates. Domestically produced metal cat cages are usually substandard.

2. Before shipping, you need to take your pet cat to a quarantine facility and obtain a quarantine certificate. The quarantine fee is 20-30 yuan. The quarantine certificate should be attached to the shipping document.

3. When transporting cats by air, try to keep them on the same plane as yourself.

4. After selecting your flight, arrive at the airport at least 3 hours in advance; otherwise, you may not be able to board after quarantine. Anticipate waiting and flight times, and prepare sufficient water and food for your cat. Hot weather and poor ventilation can all harm your pet.

5. Fasting before transport. Pets' fear of unfamiliar environments and the bumpy ride can easily cause cats to vomit. Therefore, try to fast your cat for 4 hours before departure, and do not feed it immediately after arrival at the destination; give it some time to adjust.

6. After the trip is over, collect the waybill and pick up the goods as soon as possible.
