Pets from Houston to UK

Question
Hi,

I'm looking for some advice on transporting pets from Houston to the UK.  I think I will probably use a pet travel agent, if only to keep my mind at ease.  Can you recommend anyone in the Houston area?

Thanks,

Lou

Answer
Dear Louise
You really should not be scared to arrange this yourself.  It really will end up costing you at
least a couple thousand dollars MORE to use a pet shipper.
If you must: visit: www.ipata.com   There are several shippers in Houston.  Contact each one as
their prices well vary.
Have you started the pet passport program?  Really quite easy.  I have a link to DEFRA from p.6
of my website.  Also a link from my homepage to EU.  Check these all out very soon
Best to use British Air from Houston direct to UK.  You can also use Continental, but they may be
quite more expensive.
Let me know if this helps
