What determines the cost of Balinese shipping

Here's what you need to know about safely transporting your Balinese.

Mode of transportation

ratingGround travel

Time ⏱⏱

ratingAir travel

Cost $$$

Time ⏱⏱⏱

Ground and air travel have different associated costs. Flying is typically the fastest option, but also the most expensive and taxing on your pet.

rating
Travel distance

The further you need to transport your pet, the more it'll cost. If you're using ground transportation, you'll have to factor in fuel costs, lodging, meals on the road and wear-and-tear on your vehicle. These costs are applicable whether you drive the pet yourself or you hire a transporter through CitizenShipper. Airlines charge more for longer plane rides as well. This is due to the cost of fuel and the need compensate pilots and flight attendants.

rating
Pet size

Smaller pets are easier – and less expensive – to transport. If you’re flying your Balinese, they’ll need to travel in the cargo hold if they’re over 20 pounds. You’ll also need to buy a USDA-approved crate, which can cost around $200. With ground transport, it’s easier for drivers to accommodate small pets.

rating
Health clearance and travel equipment

The first step to transporting your Balinese is ensuring they’re healthy enough to travel. Most species require a vet-issued health certificate to cross state lines. This will cost $50 to $300. You’ll likely need to purchase some equipment too – such as a crate and travel supplies.

Transporting Your Balinese Cat: Feline Friends on the Move

Breed Characteristics

Balinese Cats, known for their striking blue eyes and luxurious long coats, are more than just a pretty face. They are highly social, intelligent, and vocal animals, often forming strong bonds with their owners. These characteristics can influence their transportation experiences, as Balinese Cats may become anxious if separated from their familiar environment and people. It's crucial to consider their need for interaction and mental stimulation during transport to ensure a smooth and stress-free journey.

Size and Care Requirements

Balinese Cats are medium-sized, weighing between 5 to 10 pounds, with a slender, graceful physique. Their long, silky coats require regular grooming to prevent matting, especially before transportation. While they do not have any breed-specific health issues, ensuring their comfort during transport includes providing adequate space, a secure carrier, and possibly even a mild sedative or calming aid, as recommended by a veterinarian. Special considerations, such as maintaining a controlled environment to avoid overheating, are also important.

Health and Safety Protocols

Health checks and safety measures are paramount for the Balinese Cat's well-being during transit. A thorough veterinary examination to certify fitness for travel, proof of vaccinations, and a parasite check are all essential preparations. Moreover, using a secure, well-ventilated, and escape-proof carrier can prevent accidents and ensure that your Balinese Cat arrives safely at the destination.

How to prepare your Balinese for transport

At CitizenShipper, we pride ourselves on making pet transportation a breeze. However, there are things you can do ahead of time to make your best friend’s trip safer and more comfortable.

Talk to your veterinarian

Your pet’s safety is number one – that’s why checking in with your vet before finalizing any travel plans is essential.

Here are the questions you’ll want to ask your vet:

  • Is my pet healthy enough for transport?
  • Is my pet up to date on their vaccines?
  • Is my pet’s microchip still in place and scannable?

Medical Records and Vaccinations

All medical records, including a current health certificate and a record of vaccinations, should be on hand during transportation. Core vaccinations against rabies, feline leukemia virus (FeLV), and feline infectious enteritis are critical. Preparation ensures your Balinese Cat’s health is not compromised and adheres to interstate and international travel regulations.

Identification and Security

Proper identification is crucial in the unlikely event that your Balinese Cat becomes separated from you. An up-to-date collar with an ID tag displaying your contact information, along with microchipping, provides layers of security. Ensure that the microchip is registered and the information is current for additional peace of mind during travel.

Travel Comforts for Balinese Cat

Including items from home, such as a favorite blanket or toy, can significantly reduce travel-related stress for your Balinese Cat. Familiar scents provide comfort and security in new or changing environments. Also, consider a portable litter box and access to fresh water to keep them comfortable and hydrated throughout the journey.

Essential pet transport travel supplies include:

  • Food, bowls and fresh water
  • Collars and leashes
  • Waste bags
  • Medication
  • First-aid supplies
  • Any travel documents
  • A secure, USDA-approved travel crate

Traveling to a new place is exciting but stressful for your pet. Pack their favorite toys, a bed or a comfy blanket to help them enjoy their journey. Familiar items remind them of home and will soothe their anxiety.

Customized Travel Advice for Balinese Cats

Stress Reduction Strategies

Utilizing pheromone sprays and calming blankets can help soothe your Balinese Cat during transport. Familiarize your cat with the travel carrier ahead of time by creating positive associations with treats and comfortable bedding. This preparation can significantly decrease anxiety levels during the actual travel.

Feeding and Litter Box Solutions

Maintain a regular feeding schedule to prevent gastrointestinal issues. Offer meals at the usual times but in smaller portions to reduce the risk of motion sickness. Portable, disposable litter boxes are convenient for travel, ensuring that your cat can maintain normal bathroom habits.

Climate and Comfort

Balinese Cats are comfortable in a range of climates thanks to their medium-length coats, but it's crucial to maintain a stable, comfortable temperature in their carrier. Ensure ventilation is adequate without causing drafts, and consider climate control in your vehicle, especially during extreme weather conditions.

After the Journey: Settling In Your Balinese Cat

Acclimating to New Spaces

Upon arrival, give your Balinese Cat time to acclimate to the new space. Start by confining them to a small, quiet area with access to their litter box, food, and water. Gradually introduce them to larger areas of the home as they show signs of comfort and curiosity.

Post-Travel Health Check

Monitor your cat closely for any signs of stress or illness following the journey, such as changes in appetite, behavior, or bathroom habits. Consult your vet if any concerns arise. A post-travel health check-up can ensure your Balinese Cat hasn't developed any travel-related health issues.

Maintaining Well-being

Keep your Balinese Cat's routine as consistent as possible in the new environment to promote well-being. Regular playtimes, grooming sessions, and cuddles will help reassure your cat and strengthen your bond, ensuring a smooth transition and a happy, healthy cat in their new home.
