Q. Can foreigners purchase and transfer pets?
A. Pets can be purchased at pet shops with ID (residence card, etc.) and residence information. Protection groups often have conditions such as being able to communicate in Japanese and having a long period of stay.
Q. Which is better: a pet store or a rescue group?
A. Ethically, it is recommended that animals be transferred from conservation organizations. Pet shops allow you to choose breeds, but there is a risk of unscrupulous businesses. Conservation organizations have the meaning of saving lives, and the cost is low, around 30,000 to 50,000 yen.
Q. Where can I find a transfer meeting?
A. Search for "area name + transfer association". Information on regular events can be found at local government animal welfare centers, NPO organizations' SNS, and matching sites such as Pekko Feel and OMUSUBI.
Q. What is the trial period?
A. A trial breeding period of 1 to 4 weeks is typical for adoptions from conservation organizations. This is set to confirm compatibility and can be returned if it is not a good fit. This is an important period for the whole family to decide on full-scale breeding.
Q. Please tell me the breakdown of the initial costs.
A. Cage, toilet, tableware, etc. 30,000 to 50,000, vaccines 10,000 to 20,000, neutering 20,000 to 50,000, microchip 50,000 to 10,000, pet insurance 10,000 to 30,000 per year. The total amount is 100,000 to 200,000 yen.
