I was in Amsterdam for a couple of days as a layover between flights. Millions and bazillions of cyclists, but very few dogs. I only saw about a dozen dogs during my 2 days. Either there are very few dogs in Amsterdam, or the people hide their dogs indoor, or I was in the wrong area of town…

To bring a dog into the Netherlands, the dog needs a microchip, a vaccination against rabies and finally it also needs a EU pet passport!

How does a cat or a dog get a passport? I don’t know, may be with a bark or a meow. How do they do the finger prints used in many European passports?

This is the only cat that I saw in Amsterdam during my 2 days stay.
