Bob, I lived in Hawaii 1975 to 1981. It was then and probably
still is a Rabies Free Zone, like the United Kingdom. As such, no
domestic pets get rabies vaccinations because rabies is unknown.
Hence, Hawaii, like the U.K., require months long impoundment of
all incoming animals. They are very serious about this because
once a case of rabies is loose on the islands it could totally
devistate to animal population.
 
I would check with the closest office of the Agriculture
Department to get a fix on the current laws. Maybe your State
Extension Agent could help you. Or invest in a call to the Ag.
Dept of the Sate of Hawaii.
