What determines the cost of Siamese shipping

Here's what you need to know about safely transporting your Siamese.

rating
Mode of transportation

ratingGround travel

Cost $$$

Time ⏱⏱

ratingAir travel

Cost $$$

Time ⏱⏱⏱

Ground and air travel have different associated costs. Flying is typically the fastest option, but also the most expensive and taxing on your pet.

rating
Travel distance

The further you need to transport your pet, the more it'll cost. If you're using ground transportation, you'll have to factor in fuel costs, lodging, meals on the road and wear-and-tear on your vehicle. These costs are applicable whether you drive the pet yourself or you hire a transporter through CitizenShipper. Airlines charge more for longer plane rides as well. This is due to the cost of fuel and the need compensate pilots and flight attendants.

rating
Pet size

Smaller pets are easier – and less expensive – to transport. If you’re flying your Siamese, they’ll need to travel in the cargo hold if they’re over 20 pounds. You’ll also need to buy a USDA-approved crate, which can cost around $200. With ground transport, it’s easier for drivers to accommodate small pets.

rating
Health clearance and travel equipment

The first step to transporting your Siamese is ensuring they’re healthy enough to travel. Most species require a vet-issued health certificate to cross state lines. This will cost $50 to $300. You’ll likely need to purchase some equipment too – such as a crate and travel supplies.

Transporting Your Siamese Cat: Feline Friends on the Move

Breed Characteristics

Siamese cats are known for their distinct personality and striking appearance. This breed possesses a unique blend of intelligence, agility, and vocalness, which often translates into a desire for constant companionship and interaction during travel. Recognizing their need for engagement is crucial in ensuring a comfortable transport experience. These cats are also highly adaptive, but changes in their environment, such as transportation, can cause stress if not carefully managed.

Size and Care Requirements

The slim, sleek physique of Siamese cats signifies their elegance, with adult cats typically weighing between 5 to 10 pounds. Despite their relatively maintenance-free short coat, they do require regular interaction and mental stimulation to keep them at ease. During transport, ensuring they have access to a familiar object, such as a favorite toy or blanket, can make a significant difference in their comfort levels.

Health and Safety Protocols

Prioritizing health and safety is paramount when transporting Siamese cats. They require up-to-date vaccinations and a thorough health check from a veterinarian to ensure they're fit for travel. Also, understanding their specific breed-related health issues, like respiratory or dental problems, allows for better preparedness and care during transport.

How to prepare your Siamese for transport

At CitizenShipper, we pride ourselves on making pet transportation a breeze. However, there are things you can do ahead of time to make your best friend’s trip safer and more comfortable.

Talk to your veterinarian

Your pet’s safety is number one – that’s why checking in with your vet before finalizing any travel plans is essential.

Can’t make it to the vet’s office in time? Conveniently video chat with a qualified veterinarian at FirstVet – one of our amazing partners.

Here are the questions you’ll want to ask your vet:

  • Is my pet healthy enough for transport?
  • Is my pet up to date on their vaccines?
  • Is my pet’s microchip still in place and scannable?

Medical Records and Vaccinations

Comprehensive medical documentation and a current vaccination record are prerequisites for transporting your Siamese cat safely. These records should include updates on routine shots against rabies, feline leukemia, and other common diseases. This preparation underscores the importance of safeguarding not only the pet's health but also that of other animals and humans they may encounter.

Identification and Security

Ensuring your Siamese cat has proper identification is critical for secure travel. A collar with an ID tag displaying your contact information, along with a microchip, offers double assurance that your cat can be identified and returned to you if they wander off during breaks or in case of an emergency.

Travel Comforts for Siamese Cat

To make your Siamese cat's travel experience as stress-free as possible, prepare a travel kit with essentials such as their favorite blanket, toys, and a portable litter box. Keeping familiar items close by can significantly reduce anxiety and provide a sense of security and comfort.

Essential pet transport travel supplies include:

  • Food, bowls and fresh water
  • Collars and leashes
  • Waste bags
  • Medication
  • First-aid supplies
  • Any travel documents
  • A secure, USDA-approved travel crate

Traveling to a new place is exciting but stressful for your pet. Pack their favorite toys, a bed or a comfy blanket to help them enjoy their journey. Familiar items remind them of home and will soothe their anxiety.

Customized Travel Advice for Siamese Cats

Stress Reduction Strategies

Utilizing pheromone sprays or wearing a calming collar can greatly reduce travel-related stress for your Siamese cat. Additionally, maintaining a quiet and calm demeanor yourself can help reassure your pet, creating a more relaxed travel atmosphere.

Feeding and Litter Box Solutions

Maintain your Siamese cat's regular feeding schedule as closely as possible, offering small meals to avoid motion sickness. Portable and disposable litter boxes can provide an effective solution for managing their needs during long journeys, ensuring cleanliness and convenience.

Climate and Comfort

Siamese cats prefer warm environments, so it's essential to maintain a comfortable temperature in their travel space, avoiding extremes of heat or cold. Soft bedding and the presence of familiar items can also aid in creating a cozy environment that caters to their comfort needs.

After the Journey: Settling In Your Siamese Cat

Acclimating to New Spaces

Once at your destination, allow your Siamese cat to explore their new surroundings at their own pace, ensuring the space is safe and escape-proof. Gradually introduce them to different areas of their new home, encouraging exploration and comfort with their new environment.

Post-Travel Health Check

Observing your Siamese cat closely for any signs of distress or ill health following travel is crucial. Check for indications of dehydration, appetite changes, or unusual behavior, and consult a veterinarian if concerns arise, ensuring a smooth transition to their new setting.

Maintaining Well-being

Keeping a consistent routine with familiar playtimes, meals, and grooming can help your Siamese cat adjust quickly to their new home. This consistency helps in sustaining their overall well-being and ensures they feel secure and loved in their new environment.
