Exporting a cat or dog from Cambodia to USA?

Did you find any helpful information about this? I'm coming up on the same issues.

Hi!

I know this is late, but I thought it might help someone out.

I brought my cat back with me in 2012. I flew Korean Air from Phnom Penh to Atlanta and then within the US. In order to take her with me, I had to make sure she had all her shots ahead of time and then get the vet (I used AgroVet) to give me a letter within 1 week before leaving noting that she was healthy and had had all her shots. Even though Korean Air said there was a weight limit to take your cat on board with you, they never weighed her. I bought a cat carrier from AgroVet and used it to fly with her. It was actually too big to go under the seat, but they didn't seem to care at Korean Air (I went ahead of time and checked the size of the carrier with them -- it was the only one available at the time in Phnom Penh.). I had to pay about $150 extra for a ticket for her with Delta, I think, and then Korean Air also asked me for an additional $100 or so when I was in the airport. I tried to get out of it since I had already paid with Delta and had bought my tickets through Delta/together, but with no success. When I flew through Delta, someone met me in the airport to give me a US-acceptable-carry-on-size carrier for the rest of my trip, since I figured inside the US they would be more picky.

In terms of trauma, she didn't like traveling, but she adjusted well as soon as she got here. I think it was definitely worth it. The vet gave me a tranquilizer for her, so she slept a lot, but when she was awake I kinda felt like I had roofie'd her, as she seemed confused and angry about why she felt that way.

Hope this helps!

Americans don't like to eat dogs & cats all that much.

This was very helpfully to me as a I planning to take my dog back to canada. Cheers
