Rabbits!

[coastcat]

Did anyone ever get the answer to the original question? All I can find on MAF's site are the regulations for importing pet rabbits from Australia. In that situation, the regs are similar to those for importing cats and dogs - proof of health required, microchipping/tattooing is required, but neutering is not.

Hi, coastcat,

My original suggestion was for poacher to write to MAF directly. I think that is the only way she'll get a definitive answer. They're very helpful and great about replying promptly.

I had supposed neutering would be required only because I'm aware of their 'pest' status in NZ, as it is in Aussie, but it was only a supposition. And please understand, I don't view them as pests when they're pets -- that's just historically how they've been viewed in NZ! Now, after seeing what youv'e learned, I'd guess that neutering will not be required.

Best of luck to you, poacher! Hope it's the answer you want!

All the best, Rae

Sorry Coastcat - one of the cardinal sins on a forum, writing something that you're sure is correct and you are totally wrong. ops: Glad you corrected me.

captainxmas. definately think you should leave the reindeer at home. lots of venison for sale in the supermarket here........Then again perhaps there is a potential profit there.
