瑞士生活指南(十):在瑞士养宠物的注意事项
在上一期瑞士生活指南中,我们为您介绍了如何运送宠物到瑞士。今天,我们再为您简要介绍一下,在瑞士养宠物需要注意的事情。我们希望您的宠物,来到瑞士这样一个对动物十分友好的国家之后,能够享受一段美好的幸福时光。
运送宠物到瑞士前
如果您想将宠物一同带到瑞士,那它必须有七个月大并满足以下三个条件:
1.拥有“宠物电子身份证”,如已植入电子微芯片或有纹身标记;
2.已接种狂犬疫苗,并能够提供接种证明;
3.拥有欧盟宠物护照,或经欧盟认证的其他国家宠物护照。
当您从非欧盟国家入境欧盟时,须向欧盟海关递交宠物的入境申请资料,欧盟海关会对资料和宠物的入境资格进行审核。此外,如果出发地为狂犬病疫区,那么您的宠物还须接受额外的管控检查(血液检查、入境许可证等)。
宠物进入瑞士后
宠物进入瑞士后,您需要向您居住地的当地管理部门上报您爱犬的信息,同时在AMICUS(国家犬类信息中心)的网站上更新它的住址或主人信息。雷梭勒团队很乐意为您提供此类服务。
您需要带您的宠物一起拜访瑞士的兽医,兽医会核对它微芯片里的电子身份证号码,然后通过AMICUS网上平台录入它的数据信息。
本文后面会附上纳沙泰尔州提供的兽医及机构名单。除了兽医以外,瑞士还可以找到补充医学领域的行为学家及专家。
一般来说,兽用药物须由在动物健康领域具备专业知识的兽医提供,兽医们通常会储备充分的药物,从常见药到专用药配备齐全,比如抗生素、消炎药等,有一些药在药店也能买到。
检测的费用(如细菌检测、寄生虫检测、血液检查等)平均大约在17瑞郎到60瑞郎之间。
携带宠物外出
除餐饮店铺外,瑞士大部分的商店对犬类很友好。不允许犬类进入的商铺也会在门外布置好您爱犬等待区域,瑞士人在这方面考虑得非常周到。
徒步和骑行是瑞士旅行的特色之一,您的爱犬可以在徒步和慢跑跑道上与您一起运动。同时,各个城市都有许多允许犬类进入的公园,不过您仍需注意,并非所有的公园都允许犬类进入。在纳沙泰尔,您可以和您的爱犬在Pierre-à-Bot公园享受午后的悠闲时光。
瑞士的公共交通对犬类非常友好,是您携爱犬出行的绝佳选择。呆在笼子里的小型犬可免费乘坐公共交通,大型犬也只需购买半价车票即可。如果您不想携爱犬步行横穿大街小巷,您可以选择搭乘巴士、火车,甚至可以乘坐轮渡。您还可以为您的爱犬购买日票或者交通卡,让公共交通出行更便捷。
并非所有酒店都允许宠物入内,但是找到一家适合您和您爱犬入住的瑞士酒店并不难,有时酒店的工作人员还会主动与您的爱犬互动,让它们和您一样受到热情的接待。
