What CDC requirements apply to cats?

Frequently Asked Questions about Animal Importation | CDC DG...
Cats are covered under the same regulation as dogs (42CFR71.51). Cats are subject to examination at the port of entry to rule out any zoonotic diseases (diseases that can be transmitted to humans), and may require veterinary medical examination, treatment, and/or quarantine if they appear ill. Although cats are not subject to rabies vaccination regulations, CDC strongly advises all cat owners to have their pets vaccinated against rabies as a precaution.

Can I apply for a CDC permit to import a bat as a pet?

Frequently Asked Questions about Animal Importation | CDC DG...
Certain animals, such as bats, insects and snails, are known to carry zoonotic diseases. Bats are known to carry rabies and histoplasmosis. Importing such animals for any reason requires permits from CDC and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. CDC permits are issued by CDC's Etiologic Agent Import Program, whose guidelines and forms can be found on their website. Because bats can be infected with and transmit rabies, permits are not granted for importing bats as pets.

Back to Top How many cats do you have?

Marge Piercy - FAQ's
We have four cats now. If you have read my memoir, SLEEPING WITH CATS, you will notice that we have only two of those cats with us now. Dinah, my elderly Korat, died some years ago. We still have Malkah, an orange tabby from a shelter, who is very large for a female and the matriarch of the tribe. Next comes Efi, who is a chocolate point Siamese, very playful and jealous of her prerogatives. She believes Malkah is her mother; Malkah believes Efi is her daughter.

Do they show their cats?

Untitled Document
It is not essential for a breeder to show their own cats however I personally would recommend you buy a kitten from a breeder who has been involved with showing and shows their own cats. If a breeder shows cats then they are constantly seeing other Siamese of great type that conform to the breed standard and it means that the breeder will know the quality of their own cats and will know how to breed to improve the quality and type.
