Here is a link to the Animal Hospital of St. Maarten. You could download the application for the import permit on their website. Follow the instructions. You'll basically need the import permit along with your USDA health certificate and rabies vaccination certificate to enter St. Maarten. Coming back to the US, you will need nothing, although the Airline you are travelling on might require an health certificate saying your pet is ok to travel, check your airlines requirement for details. We brought back a cat 3 years ago. Coming back in to the US, CBP told us they don't need any paperwork for cats. They only check paperwork on dogs.

You are correct. I would NEVER put any of my kitties through a trip. I get a pet service. One door ajar, a cleaning lady, the cat bolts as it is freaked over new surroundings. Bad country for a lost kitty cat. Not only a homeless cat....there is a very unsavory element that throws them into dog fighting pits. ![frown frown](/images/graemlins/default/frown.gif)

The OP here owns a home on the island so I’m guessing she’s probably staying for a lengthy visit. I agree though, that I will never understand why people would put their pets through the trauma of travel for a short stay of a month or less unless the pets are small enough to be cabin travelers, but even that is questionable.
Respectfully,
