Driving U.S. to Canada with Pet Rat

[Amooliakin]

We are going on a 10 day vacation in Canada and will be driving. Everything I can find at the State Dept. web site has only to do with taking an airline.

Does anyone know if we can bring our pet rat with us? If he is allowed into Canada and not back out again that of course would also be a problem!

Thanks

You should not have a problem importing a rat into Canada. However, if your travels take you to Alberta, you will need a permit. You can find information here: http://www.inspection.gc.ca/animals/terrestrial-animals/imports/policies/live-animals/pets/rodents/eng/1331869343204/1331869905125
