pet couriers in Ireland

Evenin',

I am looking to transport a kitten from Roscommon to Kilkenny in a few weeks and I don't have my own transport so I'm wondering if anyone knows of any pet couriers here in Ireland? I've looked online but I can't find anything.

Also I'm wondering if anyone would know how much I would be expected to pay for such a service?

Cheers.

your best bet is probably to hire someone, likely from roscommon to cut down on their travel time.

Someone from roscommon could probably do it for 60 euro. If I was to do it from Galway I'd have to charge 100 for the extra time & petrol.

I'm just bumping this once cos I posted it late on last night. I'd be grateful if anyone could shed some light on my query. Cheers.

It might be worth asking in the relevant Region forums to see if there's anyone from either area who regularly travels from one to the other and would take your kitten along with them.

Ask a taxi driver - me
Seriously though I would do it once the cat is in a cage or box I've no problem I like cats have three of my own. We could come to some arrangement.

Where in Roscommon is the kitten OP?

It's in Cloondacarra, Castlerea. I still don't know exactly when I can collect it so I'm just kind of sussing out the situation at the moment. I'll probably know more within the next week and then I can make a proper decision on transport arrangements.

Hi OP, whereabouts in Kilkenny are you? I'm in Roscommon so might be able to help, just trying to work out how far and how much diesel I'd need! I recently sold 7 puppies and delivered them all over (Athlone, Kildare, Dublin and Carlow), so one kitten would be a doddle! Have a commercial jeep so would have room for a box/cage.

I live in Kilkenny City centre. Thanks a million for all the replies lads. When I know exactly what is happening I'll consider my options.
