For Nguyen family, a change of government role resulted in a relocation to Canberra, a city designed around a planned grid and political hub. Their concerns were centered on their cat, Nimbus, who is a fluffy Ragdoll cat that they were afraid would be impacted by the ACT law requiring all new cats to be desexed unless an exemption was sought along with numerous documentations needed for pet relocation Australia. HappyLocate, providing domestic pet relocation in Canberra took care of all of it for them and managed all documentations such as updating microchip details with local council and guiding the Nguyen family on desexing laws. This make Nguyen family's relocation smooth and stress-free!
HappyLocate carefully organized his journey, arranging pet transportation through Qantas Freight and preparing his IATA-compliant crate for the flight as well as guiding the family about best practice of road travel including using a secured harness or pet barrier in compliance with distracted driving laws.
Our cat relocation service provided the Nguyens with information on pet-friendly housing and local veterinary services to help Nimbus settle into his new life. We also offer our dog relocation service for any four-legged friends, and can provide reliable pet taxi service for all local appointments so you can focus on settling in your new life in Canberra!
