Since Sweden is one of the few counries without rabies, the rules for bringing animals are quite hard. Even though the the regulations have been easier the last year (when entering the European Union), you have to expect at least three months in quaranteen. You can have more information if you write to the Swedish Board of Agriculture, "Jordbruksverket", 551 82 J=F6nk=F6ping, Sweden.
