Animals over 14 kg must be crated individually. Certain national regulations require cats or dogs to be crated individually unless the consignment is a litter over 8 weeks and travelling with the mother.Ī maximum of two adult animals of comparable size up to 14 kg each, that are compatible in size and used to cohabiting, may be shipped in the same container/primary enclosure. When crating puppies or kittens together in the same container/primary enclosure they must be from the same litter, not older than six months, weigh no more than 14 kg each and no more than three per container. Weaned puppies or kittens may travel well together in the same primary enclosure. Snub-nosed breeds require 10% larger containerĬontainer width calculation for multiple animals:.Minimum internal container dimensions for a single animal: The calculated dimensions are internal container dimensions. Measurements A, B, C and D for determining the container dimensions must relate to the largest animal. When calculating the minimum internal height of the container, the height of bedding should be added to the height of the animal.Ī = length of animal from tip of nose to base/root of tail.Ĭ = width across shoulders or widest point (whichever is the greater).ĭ = height of animal in natural standing position from top of the head or the ear tip to the floor (whichever is higher). To assist in determining the approximate size of the traveling container, the following formula may be useful.
