hi may i know ur location?

When did you do the transport? I did it on this year January. Yes, it is base on Weight and Size of the Cage too. That time i used a Medium Size Cargo that Suitable for 2 Cats. The Freight Charges Already Cost me RM200+, Bringing the Gps got Medical Check ups to request for Health Cert for applying Permits already cost RM200+ (for 6 piggies)around RM20-40 for each GP...Still haven't add up the Fuel Charges/Taxi Fees and Permit Fees and the Portable Cage/Cargo.

I did mine recently too.
For cats/dogs request for Health Cert is RM5.00 per head.
So expensive for GP.

i visit that shop before, so angry with the bad enviroment they provide to animal

a petshop in Selayang Mall is terrible too, they didn't put any water bottle inside animal cage, i saw those hamster, rabbit and guinea pig keep licking their glass cage

well, u know... KL lor lol...some even wan to charge me RM100+ per head...i was like FTW and go other vet to see. You did the transport yourself or you're hiring ppl to do the stuff? If u're hiring ppl, i would like to know who If like that, My dream to get few more piggies from KL can come true

I did it myself actually.
All I did was get the import and export permit
Then send the cats for vet check up and paid RM5.00 for each head.
Got the letter of health from the vet.
Then book the passage from Kuching to KL
And paid excess baggage RM10.00 per kg for my cats.
Both of them costs RM60.00 only.
Arrived at KLIA and homeward bound.

But when I transferred my cats from KK to Kuching it had to involve an agent on KK's side.
They charged my dad RM150.00 for all the paper work.
But in Kuching, I did the clearance myself and saved RM150.00
I called the customs officer and asked him if I could do the clearance myself and he agreed.
Actually no hard work.
Just get the papers stamped that is all but time consuming as you had to wait for your turn.

Health cert will be issued by the government vet.

The jabatan Perkhidmatan issue the Health Cert Actually. But u must have the Vet's Confirmation first before u can get the Health Cert

must be government vet ah? but government vet dont know much bout gp one wor.. if UPM one can right?

Added on November 24, 2010, 4:50 pmso nex time can ask liao how come cats only rm5 but gp rm20..
if as u said like tat, u must bring all gp to c a exotic vet 1st then the vet sign and confirm then go jabatan perkhidmatan again?
so vet consultation (one fee) + jabatan perkhidmatan (another fee) = 20 each pig or one shot vet and cert-->rm20?

No, that time i bring to Dr.jenny there when she still working. Only the Consultation fee for each GP already cost RM20 each....that time i brought 3 GPs not more than RM100 (i forgot), if got mites, u need to add $ to buy revolution.... That time the gp got mites. The other 3 Gps at other Vet(Forgot the name) mroe exp than Dr.Jenny...more than RM100+...just for consultation fee only. Both vet i will ask them to write a Confirmation Letter and sign by the Vet themselve. After that i bring the Letter to Jabatan Perkhidmatan to apply the Health Cert so can be Transport in Mas Cargo. In jabatan haiwan the fee is not very exp, Just RM20+ like that.... If you go Government Vet confirm they charge you even more. Just like you said, they don't know much about GP, so they simply charge u and they will give excuse like they wan to help u do "FULL" body check up for the gp.... Thats what they said when i called them =.= I was like...Bullsh*t la lol... And they say the Body Check up need RM120+ for EACH gp >.<.... So u can skip Government Vet.

Any vet also can... as long they know what is "Guinea Pigs"

For cats and dogs they already have the medical card when you bring them for their vacination.
So you use this card to proof that you have all the necessary vacinations done and only then go to the Government clinic to get the health certificate but before that must get export permit first.
GP's should also have a medical card from private vet to certifiy that they are healthy right?

No wonder ur's is cheaper because u use Medical Card to replace my "confirmation letter"... Nope, my gps don't have them cuz i bought them from Breeders at KL and I'm bringing back them to KK... So no point getting the Medical Card

hahaha.. yalor cat and dog have medical card from their deworming process.. guinea pig dont have such thing la.. tat y it is expensive.. the other dr that u mention is it Dr. Yeoh chamyk?

I need advise from all the pro GP sifus here....

My pig scratch more than often & she also always use her mouth and pull some parts of her fur.

I bathed her with vinegar & water... But I see her doing the same thing again..

I've checked through her fur. No moving things at all... N dots or watever... She's eating normal and just like herself except for the scratching part. I wonder what is wrong. Need to wait for a week only I can take her to vet as I'm having exam

What can I do now?

hey guys,

i just adopted a sheltie not too long ago. everything is fine, just that there is a spot on her nose area where it looks like she got hurt. now its a bold spot just a dot. first i thought she got hurt perhaps before i bought her.

but now there is another spot, right on top of it. it starts by bleeding mark, den the skin dries, den its just a bald spot. not sure whether the fur will grow there again anot. can anyone tell me what might cause this?

sounds like ringworm to me..

ringworm? mm how do i get rid of it? im worried that it will spread to further places of his body. will try taking picture of the wound and post it asap. in the meantime, this is the sheltie. his name is Rexy.

wat colour is ur piggies? U bath with vinegar and water only? How much vinegar u put? Did u use shampoo or any kind?
it is normall for them to scratch a bit.. Biting at the fur suggest she/he is itching and scratching didnt solve.. Might be dry skin.. Hence i ask how much of vinegar u use? I scare to strong liao then skin dry off lor.. lastly wat breed of piggies is urs.. ?

llsphinxll
tat sound like manges mites to me.. Very dangerous.. Better go vet and ask for revolution liao..d dr will also giv u inflamation cream to apply there later..

Its a tricolour pig... White, cream and dark brown...
Breed i think its a hybrid pig since the pet shop said its a sheltie but its fur isn't that long like what I see from other pigs.

Vinegar 30%. water 70%.
Yesterday didnt use shampoo... After bath I use new toothbrush to brush its fur... Nothing come out also except for few strands of fur...
I bath her every weekend with guinea pig shampoo. But once in a while (Once every 2 month or so) I'll use vinegar instead of shampoo.

Its biting at its legs... Is it barbering?
And it always play with the water bottle and wet its chin. But now legs also wet.
Legs wet might be because it simply pee on newspaper instead of toilet.
Or maybe because it bite the leg fur until fur wet.. But it seems to be very wet. Weird...
I'm nt very sure what to do...

Fastest is Sunday I can bring to vet... But how to bring in C&C cage?
