Urgent Help on Transport.

[Falconeer]

Hello friends,

 

I just met this friend of a friend who has a very sweet CAG. The name is Clipper and he/she is so funny. Talks, says his owner's phone number and other cool stuff. She rescued the bird and gave me tonnes of advice too.

 

Now she asked me if she was going back to the UK, what kind of paper work would get her bird out and in UK. I just checked with the Vet and they told me that a Helth Check paper would okay the bird OUT of UAE but we need to check with UK what is it that they need. The bird has NO leg ring.

 

Then I started thinking... I might be moving in a year to US (next summer)... So what do they need in Texas to okay the bird? I have NO Birth Certificate. Would go back to the pet store tomorrow to see if he can provide one (but highly unlikely).

 

Any suggestions, Ideas, HELP? We do not want to loose our birds.
