The best way to cover your bases is to ask the breeder what he/she wants you to bring with you, some of them will have transport containers set up for minimum stress in transport, some of them even supply a care sheet for your particular animal. Above all listen to the breeders final instructions if your excitement levels will allow and get him/her to write down what you need to do in the first month, and remember the most important thing that is suggested by every member here on new additions (coz they have all been there) "leave your little darling alone for its first week" there is a very good reason for it and nobody here is blowing smoke when they say it, stress is a major factor in your animal settling down. Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy.............................................Ron
