Can my cat travel through the Eurotunnel?

Yes. Cats can travel through the Eurotunnel (LeShuttle) in a vehicle. They remain inside the car throughout the 35-minute crossing, which is much calmer and less stressful than airline travel. A valid Animal Health Certificate and microchip are required.

What documents does my cat need to enter the UK?

Your cat needs: a valid UK Animal Health Certificate (AHC) issued by an authorised vet, a microchip, and a current rabies vaccination. The AHC must be issued no more than 10 days before travel.

Can I travel with my cat or does it travel alone?

You can travel with your cat (owner-assisted) or book solo cat transport where our trained driver accompanies your cat alone with regular photo updates and live tracking.

How much does cat transport UK to Europe cost?

The cost depends on distance, number of cats, and service type (owner-assisted vs solo). Contact us for a free personalised quote with no hidden fees.

Pet Taxi Services For Cat Transportation

Door-to-Door Cat Transport via Eurotunnel

We’ve got everything sorted for you. Our driver will pick up your cat from home, make sure they’re happy on the journey, and get them to their new place in Europe safely. The Eurotunnel bit is easy – it’s just 35 minutes and really quiet. Your cat can even stay with you in the car the whole time, which is a great perk.

This private pet taxi service is for your family only — we never transport multiple pets from different families in the same vehicle. This ensures comfort, hygiene, and security for your companion at all times.

Owner-Assisted Cat Travel

Cats often feel safest when their owner is close by. You’re welcome to bring your cat along in our luxury pet taxi for cats, it’s a great way to provide a feeling of comfort and familiarity while we take care of all the arrangements.

Pets are never cramped or left unattended. Drivers are trained in safe handling, and vehicles are regularly cleaned and checked to maintain high standards of hygiene.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I previously traveled with my dog Fleur in the cargo hold of a plane and didn’t enjoy the experience so looked for an alternative. I found Luxurious Pet Move Abroad online and took a dive in trying a taxi service instead. We got collect in Paris and driven all the way to London and I couldn’t fault the experience. There was a blanket and water ready for us and we were able to pull over whenever needed to give Fleur a break. The cars were spotless and very comfortable.

Communication throughout was excellent and Zac was brilliant to work with. He made travel through LeShuttle a pain free process and advised us before hand on all documentation needed.

I couldn’t recommend Luxurious Pet Move Abroad enough, and if I ever need to travel with a pet again I will be sure to be in touch again!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful experience with our driver Zac who helped us go all the way from the Netherlands to Wales!! I couldn't possibly recommend them enough if you're traveling with your pets. He was incredibly patient, kind, and efficient. The drive was so smooth & timely!!
We had originally run into issues with our ferry from the Netherlands to UK being cancelled very short notice & we struggled to find any pet taxis available. Luxurious pet move abroad was the only one we could get & I am so glad we did! It was the most affordable option as well! We also later encountered a very long delay for our flight which he kindly accommodated. He provided water & the perfect environment to keep our cats comfortable. He was very considerate also to stop along the way a couple times for us to grab a drink or snack. I really appreciate his patience, kindness, and we had a lovely time chatting with him along the way there. I really cannot understate what a huge help he was & what a lovely journey!!

Zac and his team looked after my dog so well on his solo journey from London to Budapest. They made his journey comfortable and stress free. They kept me updated all the way with photographs and videos and made sure I  was happy. I cannot recommend Zac and Luxurious Pet Move Abroad highly enough. They are fantastic.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zac was absolutely wonderful and he is our hero. He transported our 4 month puppy from Kefalonia to London.  He was so well organised so polite and so communicative.  His attention to detail fantastic and he made a nightmare trip so easy and smooth for the puppy who had a wonderful kind humane journey.  Ela was treated to a first class luxury travel with her chaperone.  Zac always made sure she was right by his side had a comfortable seat to enjoy the journey.  They travelled by day and stayed at pet friendly hotels in france and Italy.  And has a lovely top deck bed on the long ferry from Italy to Greece. He sent me his location throughout the journey along with lovely pictures of the two of them having an adventure.  No stress no trauma just luxury and comfort.  If you care for your pets comfort safety and wellbeing Zac is your man. It’s obvious his heart is huge and his compassion and care outstanding. Thank you Zac for bringing Ela Puppina such a long long way to her new home
