Default Cat Shipping Companies

Anyone had a cat shipped in the last few years and have a shipping company/broker that you'd recommend? I'd like to send Fuzzball somewhere.....one way....preferably C.O.D.

Thanks in advance!

I would never ship my cats commercially or otherwise. Where I Go - They Go. In a car.

Throw little Fuzzball in the back of my new F-150 as it passes by on the back of the car hauler.

Put it in a box with a vial of poison. If it's dead when the other person opens it, you can blame them for killing it, because it was both dead and alive before they opened it. No fault on you.

Some of you old timers from that other place might recall several years ago where our neighborhood had a cat that was attacking dogs in the back yards.

It would pick a fight with any dog and take off. I would hit with a water hose an nothing. One day I nailed it with pepper spray and that was the last time I ever saw it.

Here he is one day about 10 years ago

I had a couple cats back in the 80's. The toilet paper is normal but one day I came home and they got into the cupboard doors and opened bags of pasta all over the place. What a mess.

Guy in my office just this past week picked up a Maine Coon cat that was shipped from Ukraine to the breeder here in the states. Cost him $2,100 for the cat and the cat came with a passport.

Most of the cool cats I've known have been maine coons, if I ever wanted my house to stink of cats and have gritty kitty litter on everything, or if I had good acreage for a barn cat, I'd probably only consider a maine coon.
