So after four hours about of paperwork and exploring the Frankfurt Cargo Airport area on foot, one building here one building there (at least they give you a printed schedule and passes for you and the car), so you know in which area the paperwork is, then see the vet who checks the cat and reads the chip, then go to customs and get clearance, then back to front office and turn in pass and then: a door opened and my sweet baby was given to me in her carrier. She sat there and looked at me and I looked at her and told her we will soon be home, do not worry.
I spoke to her all the way home and then once set the carrier down by the litterbox and she was eager to come out, then showed her the food and water and then our bed.

Off she was under it. I understand she needs her time to adjust to a new home, she sniffed at a pair of shoes which where in the bedroom, looked around and went into hiding. But that is ok for me, she will come when she ready.
I speak to her softy all the time and I know she will gain confidence with me and this new place will need to be explored and made hers as well.

So here we are, starting off into a brandnew life the two of us, a happy life of mutual love.

Birgit and Tango :paw:

:heart: I'm thrilled she made it to her new home!!! :heart:

I know from experience how fun customs and such can be when shipping 'cargo'. I had my fingers crossed all of last night for you two. Now, how about pictures of the pretty girl???

YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! :D :D :D :D

I have been checking in in between packing boxes all morning!!!

Whenever I have come home with a new kitty they go in the bathroom (to be away from the others) and they always run for cover....but the best they can get there is behind the toilet. And, she has had a much more involved journey than most so this is to be expected...as you know :)

I just know she will be out in no time...ready to take over your heart and home :heart:

Once again, CONGRATULATIONS!! And, not to be a pest already, but we will need some pictures once she has settled a bit :flower:

Wahoo, Birgit!!!! :!: That is wonderful!!
Congratulations to you and welcome darling little Tango to your new home!! : :paw: :heart: :flower: :paw: :heart: :flower:
Just so very exciting, and a BIG sigh of relief for both you and Tracy!


4 hours of paperwork?? Good grief! :shock:
Tracy was saying she had a sea of documents on her end... I'd have thought it was mostly all done from that end .
I'd no idea overseas transfers of pets involved so much of this.. or maybe its specific to your country?

What a tiring stressful ordeal... for all of you, people and kitty.


But no matter - she is there!!! All the efforts so worth it!
I just know she will bring you so much happiness, and I'm just thrilled for you, Birgit - and for Tango too!

Tango is just a beautiful girl, sweet and loving... a kitty just "meant" for you. It's that perfect match that Tracy seeks for all her sweethearts - as all breeders do when placing their beloved babies. :flower: :heart:

Yes... she will of course be needing some time to settle down from all the high stress of her long journey and then a new and unfamiliar place she finds herself in. As you know so well, and I'm sure expected - her reaction is almost a universal one..

When I brought Zack home... he made a beeline for under the downstairs sofa .. and stayed there for a day and a half.
Just as they all do,.. he calmed, became inquisitive- started cautiously exploring..

A little adjustment period... of course. But I know she quickly warm up to you, Birgit, and soon that sweet and precious love will begin to flow!

All best wishes and special hugs to you and your lovely little girl!! :heart: :heart: :heart:
Please let us know how she is doing,Birgit and pics would be wonderful - when you are and she are up for this of course. .
