There would be lots of red tape and health certificates, etc. required. With all the scare of bird flu and other nasties, I wouldn't even attempt it. Most countries would require all the paperwork AND the bird would have to be quarantined for 4-6 weeks or more before being allowed into the destination country. At best, this would be a nightmare for you and a pet bird unless you are moving to a new country permanently in which case you would have to comply with all the laws and regulations or find a home for your bird and leave it behind.

thanks and here is why I askI spend about 2 months a year in Italy at my husband's hometown which is pigeon friendly. We love our bird so much that it is almost painful to think about leaving her for 2 months. I skipped my trip to Italy this year..Our bird is so attached to us, I wonder how she would feel if we leave her for 2 months. Also we are not sure that we know who she can stay with...any suggestions?

We have members in your area that might be able to board your bird while you are gone. Would that be of interest to you?

I would be really interested in finding out about members who could board my pigeon girl while we are away from the country. Could you send me some information? Thanks! Eleonora |
