Is this real? It's too cute to be real isn't it?

It's a very cute story! Unfortunately not true - this particular cat got an honorary title but it wasn't a thing that usually happened.

Still, I'm glad they had cat memes even back then!

Aww, I loved the idea of it! Never mind, at least it happened once. :)

Within the EU, you still need passport for a cat if you wanna travel abroad with it. My cat has his own passport.

Did the cat have to sign with their paw? Please say yes even if it isn't true

Yes!..n’t .

~~Even the photo was optional.~~

My parents' dog has a passport. It even includes the names of the dog's parents which I find amusing.

I have a cat and have travelled abroad with in Europe, but never needed to use the passport

Ok, to be specific:

  • You really SHOULD have it
  • It is a proof of vaccination
  • Some countries require you to have your cat vaccinated against rabies (such as Germany)
  • If you don’t have such proof, in Germany, they may take your cat away from you for a few days and put him into quarantine
