I want to know how cats fare on Bonaire. Do they enjoy life there? Are they menaced by iguanas? Do they run the risk of "death by donkey?" How tough is it for pets to travel half way around the world on planes? Are there vets on Bonaire? Does it cost an arm and a leg to travel with a pet? Anyone who can/will answer my cat questions has my great thanks.

Each airline is different about allowing pets in the aircraft whether the cabin or cargo. AirJamaica does not allow pets at all. America does but there are limitations like size of carrier and if they are in cargo, summer is off limits.

I brought my cat here from MN in Oct 2001, right after 9/11 attack so travelling was a nightmare. It usually costs between $70 and $150 to transport. You need permission from the airline and they do have requirements for the kennel based on the size of the animal. NW made me put him in cargo for the first leg, however, DCA let me put him in a small underseat carrier for the trip from Miami (much better). I do recommend a collar/halter and leash as you will likely have to remove the animal for inspection of the carrier.
