I will be flying with her and I need to have some paperwork for the journey (health certificate from her vet and import permit from Dept of Vet in M'sia). My cat has been micro-chipped. I don't know what to do once in KLIA. If there's an agent who can help me with this, it would be great.

Also, if anyone has any experience/tips with moving to M'sia with a pet/pets, please share it here.
Bringing your cat to Malaysia is fairly straight forward from the EU and depending where you are embarking from. You only need your vet's documentation for approval of health and for boarding/air cargo.You do need forms from the Ministry of Agriculture form Malaysian Embassy to verify your vet's written confirmation. The flight is quite painless because I think they give them a mild sedative.Do be careful with your cat in Malaysia and don't let it outside because it could get stolen and/or catch a variety of tropical diseases and from street cats.We brought our cat here from EU.Remember to keep the aircon on for your cat. They won't be used to this high humidity! And comb him/her everyday because if fluffy
they shed a bucket of hair here.
