My name: Aaaaa Bbbbb(Client ID: 11111) Cat name: RON (Patient ID: 22222)
I'd like to make an appointment to see Dr.Ccccc Ddddd D.V.M. for my cat's rabies antibody test next Monday 1~6PM, Wednesday 3~6PM or Friday 1~6PM.
Before I make an appointment, I'd like to make sure of the two things listed below.
1. Does Dr. Ccccc Ddddd have a USDA APHIS certificate? Japanese export procedure demands that I provide proof of a rabies test
I am going to take my cat to Japan next year.
http://www.aphis.usda.gov/import_export/animals/animal_exports_pets.shtml より再度一部引用 International health certificates for the export of animals from the United States are completed by the APHIS accredited veterinarian who certifies animal health status, conducts tests, and records test results for the individual animals being exported. Completed and signed international health certificates for the export of animals from the United States must be endorsed by a Veterinary Services area office in order to be valid. To obtain the USDA endorsement of an international health certificate or any other documents relating to traveling with your pet, the documents must be completed by an APHIS Accredited Veterinarian.
2. Does the Pfizer Defensor 3 rabies vaccine last 3 years? (My cat's invoice shows "Rabies Feline 1 Year" but the reminder date is 3 years after the shot.)
before you collect her blood sample, and verify in writing that you did.
When filling out the application form for the test, the rabies vaccine must be identified as Defensor3 (not Purevax). Her last invoice reads "Purevax," Ron's medical record is labeled with a "Defensor 3" sticker as requied. (The Japanese government will not accpet Merial Purevax. The government classification of Purevax is NOT an inactivated, but a genetic recombination vaccine.)
Please send her blood sample to Kansas State University Rabies Laboratory or The DOD Veterinary Food Analysis and Diagnostic Laboratory.
She needs a rabies antibody test at this time. I need her rabies vaccine certification when she got her shot on 12/11/2007. The certification needs the information below: * Date (When she got the shot): 12/11/2007 * Cat's name: Ron * Microchip ID number: 999999999999999 * Vaccine Name: Defensor 3 * Produced by: Pfizer * Expiration Date: 12/11/2010 * Veterinary name and address: Eeeee Veterinary 99999 Fffff Rd., Ggggg, MI 44444 * Veterinarian Name: Dr.Ccccc Ddddd D.V.M. * His signature:
