Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about shipping and delivery
Does My Kitten Need a Vaccine After Arrival?
No, we do not recommend vaccinating your new kitten within the first 14 days of arrival. Your kitten will already be up-to-date on vaccinations before leaving our care.
It's important to let your kitten adjust to their new environment before any additional stress or vaccinations are introduced.
Recommendation: Take your kitten for a check-up within 48 hours of arrival to ensure their health and well-being. If any health issues are discovered, we will either provide you with a new kitten or issue a refund if no other kitten is available.
Can I Get a Discount?
Yes! If you and a friend purchase two or more kittens at the same time and they travel together on the same flight, we can offer a discount of $100 - $300 off the final price.
Note: This discount is not available for all kittens and breeds, so contact us directly for more information.
Shipping will be arranged once the kitten is paid in full, and the sales agreement contract has been signed.
