I would like to add my two cents' worth to the recent news concerning pets travelling on Virtu Ferries, as both a regular client and the owner of dogs who have used the service for years.

I have been working in Sicily for some eight years.

Thanks to Virtu Ferries not only do I get to see my family on a regular basis; travelling in comfort without the slightest hassle, but also I enjoy my pet dogs wherever I am.

Bobby now passed away at a grand old age; to the very end he would join me in Sicily whenever the family came over. Patch, my devoted companion in Sicily, comes with me to Malta whenever I join the family there - I wouldn't dream of leaving him behind.

Whether in the car or in a cage, Bobby and Patch, both very large dogs, have always received an excellent service from the Virtu Ferries crew. Thank you all.
