Pets can qualify for the 5 day or less quarantine if
1. Animal has had 2 rabies shots, of which the latest one was at least 90 days prior to arrival AND the two shots must be have been given to pet MORE than 90 days apart. They must also be current (they have 1 and 3 year rabies vaccines)
2. Animal must be microchipped
3. An OIE-FAVN RABIES BLOOD TEST must be performed (has to be after microchip was inserted AND must be done 120 days prior to arrival in Hawaii). The test must be sent to a lab certified to handle the cases by state (they're generally sent to Kansas State University).
4. All paper work for all the tests, microchip, and rabies vaccinations must be on hand and be signed by the veterinarian.
Or you could just skip all of it, come when you come. However the animal will be subjected to full quarantine
