Well it has been done before on PT, Jenluckenbach gave her cat Annie to Jenny, Payitforward from England, I imagine the travel distance is about the same, you are bringing him into canada , is that right?, this was from USA to England, they would be the best people to ask how it affected the cat, is there any chance of a good home for him where he is, because if that is possible, in the long run it may be less traumatic on the kitty.
