hello,i  thought someone around here might know about this. I currently
reside in spain and would like to go caravaning for two months around
europe.

i have a pet cockatiel which is very attached to me and which leaving
behind with someone else is not an option.

Are there any restrictions on travelling overland with a small pet in a
cage?Do ferry crossings between countries have any procedures? Any
particular countries?I will be travelling within EU zone. Thanks

Small item but take the swings down. They get bashed with them in moving
vehicles.

thanks for the tip.i have never taken a bird on a long drive. are they
more at home positioned with a view out of a window or should i cover
the cage  with a cloth?

also i found out that the EU last year had introduced new regulations.
there is now a Pet Passport for EU travel

They like the view but get very excited at first that they are "flying",
without air or flapping their wings. Do **NOT*** expose them to the lights
at night time! A heart attack may result.

Always check your cage for integrity before you open that car door though!
and don't bake the little guy in the sun.

I would take my Polly for rides with me all the time she would sit on my
shoulder and watch everything and she would duck when I would go under a
bridge, it was some funny sh.t, cause she really ducked. hehe
