Found this from CDC... sounds a little too easy.....

Importation of cats

A general certificate of health is not required by CDC for entry of pet cats into the United States, although some airlines or states may require them. However, pet cats are subject to inspection at ports of entry and may be denied entry into the United States if they have evidence of an infectious disease that can be transmitted to humans. If a cat appears to be ill, further examination by a licensed veterinarian at the owner's expense might be required at the port of entry.

Cats are not required to have proof of rabies vaccination for importation into the United States. However, some states require vaccination of cats for rabies, so it is a good idea to check with state and local health authorities at your final destination.

All pet cats arriving in the state of Hawaii and the territory of Guam, even from the U.S. mainland, are subject to locally imposed quarantine requirements.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge fan of cats, but I am a huge fan of the future Mrs, and everytime we talk on skype the cat is in her lap.....

doesn't mean I like cats....

Then the appropriate answer would be, "No, it is not allowed to import cats into the US."

And you can quote me on that.

Wow $750 I'd give the cat a slow ride down river, with out a paddle! Attachement or not!

I haven't told her that I'm contemplating this, especially if it's gonna cost more than a transportation fee and a flea collar.

Try this?

Tell her the animal shelters in the US are so full of cats-n-dogs, many are often put to sleep. That by adopting one she is doing the poor lil cat a service?
