It's official I'm moving to Toronto...

[Hermopolis]

Well, as of today, it's official. I'm moving to Toronto.

So, it looks like I'm going to need to get a visa for my wife, a quarantine certificate for my pet rabbit, and a CITES export permit for my plants. Does anyone know where to begin with the CITES permit? I know I need it for the neps and sarrs, but do I also need it for the VFT, pings, utrics, and dews? Any help with this process would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Hermes.

You need to contact the USDA to find out what you need. CITES maybe, but export permit from the US and probably import permit from Canada officials. But talk to them at the USDA and see what they tell you.

We're driving up (with all our stuff). The bunny's name is Gwenni. She's a sweet little mini rex. I already know that I have to get the quarantine cert from our vet. The rabbit is the easiest part of this move. With the CITES permit, I think I only need an export permit from the USDA. The visa for the wife.... whoa!!!! Talk about monstrous paperwork!

Anyway, here's a pic of the bunny.
