Timing with Animal Quarantine in Chiang Mai

Hi there,

Our family is moving back to the U.S. in a few weeks, and we are bringing our adopted temple stray cat with us. He has his vaccinations and micro chip, so my question is just about the animal quarantine office in Chiang Mai. We are flying out of C.M., but we don't live there, so we are hoping to minimize how many days we have to stay there, with a cat in a hotel/guesthouse room. Do any of you by any chance know how many days it usually takes to get your paperwork from animal quarantine? Other threads I've found say 3 to 5 days, but they are old, and I'm wondering if people have recent experience with the timing. If we have a late night flight out on a wednesday, could we conceivably go to Animal Quarantine on Monday and be finished in time? Otherwise we have to go on Thursday or Friday and stay through the weekend, all the while suffering through having a cat in a hotel.

Also, if anyone happens to know of pet friendly guesthouses and hotels....

Huge thanks for input!
