Pet permits to bring a cat and a rabbit to Toronto, Canada
It is very complex and challenging to bring a rabbit into Canada as a standard pet. We found that the rabbit qualified as the emotional support animal for a twelve year old Ukrainian refugee girl who experienced PTSD during the initial missile strikes in Northern Kyiv.
