Hard Times in Moving my cat from The United States of American *which I hated grin* to Europe *Europe witch I love grin* Papers Needed to move pets overseas & how the Carrollton Texas VET made it almost not happen. Thanks to the USDA lady helping my cat and I sit in beautiful places as I post this old article as it was on my old site via my new cat pages!

   I finally have all my papers and no thanks to the vet and girls in the office at the Trinity Pet Hospital in Carrollton Texas. The Trinity Pet Hospital in Carrollton Texas. In case you wanted to know where Carrollton Texas is it is just a little north of Dallas Texas. The pet hospital I took my cat to was on the corner of Trinity Mills and Josey Lane in Carrollton, Texas. Read how I had to fight hard to get my cats International Pet Certificate to relocate my cat from the USA to live in Europe.

   If not for a kind and caring woman at the United States Department of Agriculture in Austin Texas my cats flight would not be possible and then of course nor would my flight to Europe. A Pet Certificate or also called  international pet certificate for cats, dogs and other animals moving over seas is always needed. My Cat International Pet Certificate for moving was one of the most simple papers to fill out when I looked at it. Sadly a Texas vet not only did not fill out the papers correctly but the VET did not even bother to call and warn me that they messed up on the pet certificates papers after the lady at the USDA called them. The Trinity Pet Hospital on Trinity Mills and Frankford Rd in carrollton Texas was so irresponsible that they did not call me and had no plans to let me know what was going on. The only way I found out was by the lady at the United States Department Of Agriculture calling me to tell me I had to get papers redone if my cat was to leave the country and fly to europe with me.

    I got a call from the helpful and kind lady at the Austin Texas office for the United States Department of Agriculture (Planet and Pet Veterinary Services) early in the day to let me know Paul Keating DVM at the Pet Vet office called Trinity Pet Hospital did not fill out the papers complete and correctly then. She then said the VET asked her to mail the papers to him via usa mail. The United States Postal Mail of course would not have made it in time for my flight and the VET was well aware of that. Even with Express Mail or anything it was pushing it on time to get papers in. Keep in mind the VET was well away my flight was to be less than a week after the appointment. From the time you cat is Dewormed you have 10 days to get the papers from your vet and send over night to the USDA. From there the United States Department of Agriculture looks at the papers and approves them or not. If they are approved they send them back overnight to you.

   I was lucky the lady at the Austin Texas USDA called me so I had a chance to get the papers in at the last minute. I called the vets office and asked them to redo the papers. They then said they did no have the information anymore on the Rabies tests where they take blood and send it to Houston to make sure the rabies shots work on your pets. I then asked if they could be faxed in and they seemed to then need all the papers or information from before. I called the lady at the USDA in Austin and she faxed the papers to the VET Office aka Trinity Pet Hospital on Frankford and Josey in Carrollton Texas. I gave them about 20 or 30 minutes there at the pet vets and called them back. They said they had the papers and the vet was gone until 2:00pm.

  Scared and stressed as hell I waited until a little after 2:00pm and called again. The lady that answered at the Trinity Pet Hospital on Trinity Mills and Josey in Carrollton then told me the VET had the papers and was filling them out. I then asked if they were sure they had all the information they needed and she said yes and the papers would be ready. (Since I sold the car cheap to get ready to go and gave everything away I had to call a cab. I called a few and none came or called back at all. I did not wait over 10 minutes but did give them the cell phone number and also saw on missed calls while I was away.) That is kind of just a Texas thing though I think. I have been had cab trouble where they were to pick me up and never did then had to call a few times and they never came ect. That is texas. ok back on subject here....

   I walked fast to the pet vet or pet hospitals office at 2323 Josey Lane in Carrollton Texas 75006. When I got there of course the papers were NOT FILLED OUT. The vet signed the papers and put his address in one area. Again the papers that even a child in other states could fill out were not even half or a 4th of the way filled out. (Oh the papers were in English and obviously since he did not know what he was doing it tells you yeah he was american!) I of course knew that I can not say anything or speak my mind for I do not want to be stuck here in Texas for another 2 yrs for testing my lack of freedom of speech. I asked the lady at the vets office if they were filled out complete since I saw right away they were not even filled out but just his signature. The lady at the vets office at Trinity Mills and Josey replied that the papers were complete and that was all they were to fill out. I said do you promise because this is important like my life and she said they were done. I pointed out to here that they were not even filled out. She then said they were not to be filled out more. I said ok of course you can see why I would not trust you. I then called the USDA lady on the cell phone and told her what was filled out was the signature and address there and nothing else. She acted shocked also in ways and asked to speak to the vet. I was on my cell phone of course and the vet was in with a dog so I gave her the number there and of course they made us all wait.

  Makes you start to wonder even if they were not working at a vet office and worked at jack in the box or something how would they function when they have not even 1 brain cell between all the office workers in the Trinity Pet Hospital in Carrollton Texas. Just so you know the kind of questions they were to answer here is a few.... The type of animal, The breed and colors of the animal, The sex of the animal, The owners name and address, Then a few things that were on the papers that the USDA lady faxed like date of rabies shots and that was about it really. Not much to fill out but, I started filling it out because I saw the vet was not going to. Then the lady at the usda said no the vet had to fill them out.

(I forgot to mention when I got to the vets they lost all the papers that were faxed. When I called the lady at the usda and said they lost the papers and needed her to fax them again. While on the phone saying the papers needed resent because they were LOST the lady there in the vet office on Trinity Mills and Josey said the papers were not lost but the lady before had them and they did not know where they were. Hum that to me sounds like they were LOST! grin. geeze!)

  She had another VET call him and walk him through the papers step by step. I then checked them and ran fast all the way to the post office to overnight the final Redone papers for the last of the long process grin. By the time the papers (3 simple pages with little info needed on them) were FINALLY COMPLETED it was about freaking 4:30! While in the vets office at Trinity Mills and Josey I again called cabs and left info that I needed a ride. Nobody came or called back. I of course did not expect cabs to and did not have time to wait for a bus etc. I ran to the post office on Josey and Jackson in Carrollton Texas. I got in line and at that Post Office in Carrollton on Jackson my papers were turned in and sent a few minutes before 5:00pm closing time for the US POST OFFICE IN CARROLLTON.

  I walked out and walked home about to cry from relief and still worry what if being in such a hurry I did not see a space he missed or a error. I will worry until I am in The Air with Zola beside me and then until we are let into beautiful Sweden to live out our lives and finally get to live as we wish and need. To live with peace and love in peace grin.

The DFW Airport will be my last stand on usa soil. From there December 2008 we will reach Europe at last. Upon arrival at Frankfurt International airport I will touch the ground of love and peace with zola beside me. Once I reach Europe I shall not return to the usa. I will spend the remainder of my life in Europe. Americans that tell me my European friends and people are not as they seem are just retarded americans. American that tell me Europe is not as I think and know it to be are just retarded americans. I am more than 100% sure it is as it is and seems. It is worth the struggle and stress to get out of american life and be where I seem to fit in more with thinking and feeling ect. Also where my people are I hope to be forever & now being married to a European there is no way I would ask him to move to a messed up part of the world like america when he is of and in places so much more real, honest, peaceful, safe, beautiful and natural ect.
