Hi,

Was just browsing through and saw your post about parrots. We moved in to Altinkum in May of last year bringing a dog, cat and African grey parrot.
Your first port of call is to get in touch with Defra who need to be informed of any animal or bird leaving the country, they will let you know the procedure. CITES have to be informed re your African Grey believe it or not it is on CITES endangered species register and you need a certificate from them for it to leave the country. I don't know if the cockatoo is also on the register but they will advise you.
You are only supposed to bring one pet per person but we were lucky they let us through with three.

OK, as we have moved onto different pets now, any ideas how I can bring Terance my Terrapin from Tenerife over.
Would anyone object if he uses the pool and he is totally wild, at this present time he is still hibernating in the pond somewhere. During the summer he come out of the pond and sunbathes on his rock all day. He's not small either, his shell is larger than a side plate.

Hi Dippey
I brought my piranha`s with me when i moved over, i put a plastic bag inside a Pringles tube (with a few small holes in the lid) and they seemed quite happy as they love pringles anyway, they have now had 20 babies and are thriving in the warm weather.
An idea how to bring Terence over is to : fix a leather strap to one of his front and back legs, slip it over your shoulder and bring him in as a handbag.

Don`t be so stupid, LOL
Buy it a mate, stick your feet in their mouths and just walk through customs.

A parrot or two would look a bit suspicious on your feet

Thanks Dave, I'll try that, I better make sure I don't mix him up with my real handbag, don't think Terance would appreciate me shoving my lipstick and other stuffy down his mouth!

As for parrots wouldn't it look better if you stick them on your head as a hat, like ladies day at Ascot, if they move about too much use a hatpin?
