    Thank you so much for your detailed video! I'm planning on permanently moving to Japan (first studies and then work) and I really want to bring my cat. This really helped to ease my worries and now I feel better prepared to make the right preparations for the move. Thank you so much!!

    Hi! Thank you so, so much for your video. It really relives me, that you had such a long flight with your cat and everything went well. I am going to move to Japan this year and I was really worried about wether I should take my cats with me or not. I am not sure yet, if I can take them in cabin or if they need to go to the cargo area since they are quite big cats.. But seeing that your cat is all fine really eased my worries. Also, I love that you thought about taking a travel cat toilet, that's a great idea! Greetings from Germany :)

      Thank and good luck with your move! I’m really glad I bought the potty because she used it about 5 times throughout the trip. There’s nothing worse than cat pee smell!

    Do you know if you're able to bring wet cat food for once you land? It can help get water to your cat if they're too stressed out to drink water

    Thanks so much for this video. I'm moving to Japan in March but I want to bring my cat later on next year after I get myself situated there in place that allows cats. I read in Japan cats aren't allowed in the cabin. I'll be going to some place near Shiga (not entirely sure yet waiting on my exact location placement) and the closest airport in that area is Nagoya. I also read that cats are allowed in trains. So I'm wondering what would be the best way to transport her from Tokyo (since that's usually where international flights land in first) to another city. If you have any advice on that I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you very much for creating this video. It is very helpful!! What are the detentions of the carrier? I am moving to Japan in a month or two and I am very nervous about taking my cats to in cabin since my carriers are a bit bigger than the requirements by just a couple of inches, but they are soft kind.

      Yes, most airlines let you travel with a small pet in cabin! Each airline has different rules, though. I hope you can bring your cat!

    Hii your video was super helpful :) I was just wondering is the place you’re living in rented out? If so, is it normal to be able to find a place that allows pets?

    • @SaraSprout
      @SaraSprout  2 роки тому

      I own a house so it wasn’t a problem for me, but I’ve heard how difficult it was to find a rented place that accepts pets. Cats and small dogs are easier than big dogs, I guess

    Thanks for the great video! One question, did you have to fill out a document called ANNEX? It's supposed to confirm that the pet has not been in contact with other animals during the travel.

    • @SaraSprout
      @SaraSprout  2 роки тому

      This form doesn’t look familiar to me. It seems this is required if you’re using a pet transportation service?

    thank you for sharing this video... soon i will take my cat from korea to europe which is 11 h flight + 4 h layover + 1 h flight and 3 h car ride... its amazing that your cat went to toilet in plane toilet 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 just question you wasnt thinking about sleeping pills?

    • @SaraSprout
      @SaraSprout  2 роки тому

      My vet recommended no sleeping pill for her. They can cause an adverse effect, so if your cat is normally calm, sleeping pills could make them riled up. Also, it can decrease their body temperatures.
      Most airlines don’t even allow you to give a pet sleeping pills nowadays

    Does you cat hiss during anxiety? Was it easy to get your cat out of her cage for security check?
    My cat hisses when she has anxiety so I am dreading my travel with her to India. Can you please tell me a little more about security clearances? Would they do a security check without having to take her out of her cage?

    • @SaraSprout
      @SaraSprout  2 роки тому +1

      She didn’t! There were times she meowed because she needed to pee, so I knew when to take her to the bathroom and let her use the litter box. So security will tell you take your pet out of the carrier because an animal can’t go through the baggage scanner

    Hi, I have 2 questions if you can help me? 1. What is the brand of carrier you used? 2. At the airport when you need to take out the cat from carrier for inspection, what did they check on the cat? Is it just a quick walk through and put back in carrier?

    • @SaraSprout
      @SaraSprout  2 роки тому

      Sorry for the late response! It was a generic brand on Amazon.
      When I took her out, it was a quick walk through the metal detector (because pets can’t go through the baggage scanner). It would’ve been quicker but the employees wanted to take her photo 🤣

      It will depend on the airline’s policies! My first flight was almost 14 hours and they didn’t say anything. I heard others don’t allow pets if it’s over 8 hours!
