Shipping & Delivery

Q: How is a Kitten SHIPPED?

A: Ship by Airlines

Shipping is available to all US destinations. Shipping charges may vary depending upon location. Shipping costs include airfare, the kitten’s shipping crate (pet taxi), vet health certificate, and a kitten care packet. The packet includes a bag of the kitten food that he/she is accustomed to and kitten care information. Delivery is typically counter to counter service. kittens will travel in a pressurized compartment that’s temperature controlled.

– Ship by Specialized Ground Service

You also have the option of receiving your by land right to your doorstep using a Pet Transport service. They deliver to all destinations in the continental US. The cost for this service may vary upon distance and location. This is the most expensive of the two ways to get your kitten delivered.

Q: Is shipping really safe for the Kitten?

A: Shipping a Kitten by itself to a new location may always sound cruel and embarrassing but actually it is not especially with American based airlines. With my many years of shipping experience, I know for a fact that all of the kittens are well taken care of. So if you stop and think about it, the airlines are not going to mistreat the kitten(s) for fear of lawsuit and customer dissatisfaction.

We tape the kitten(s) food and feeding instructions to the top of the crate and put frozen water in the crate. It will gradually thaw out for the kitten(s) and the kittens are offered food along the ride. The average flight is approximately 2 to 6 hours. We always ask about any delays or layovers and know the exact times and departures of the flights. So we know where the kitten is and we able to give you the information as well. The kitten will arrive on the same day as it is sent usually within a few hours. We have a big fluffy bed of shredded newspapers in the crate for the kitten(s) to nestle in and usually a pig’s ear chew on (they love them). A toy or sock with my scent on it to help the kitten feel comfortable always comes in handy.

Q: Can I travel to pick up my Kitten?

A: Yes, you are always welcome to pick up your Kitten after purchase. Usually traveling alongside your Kitten with most Airlines requires no additional fee  apart from a personal flight fee. Nevertheless, Some Airlines demand an extra fee anyway.

Q: I just picked up my Kitten from the Airport, does she need a Vaccine?

A. Do not give your new kitten any vaccines within the first 14 days of arrival. Your new kitten is up to date with all shots before living our home and will not need a vaccine for at least weeks. Many Vets will attempt to issue a vaccine so that they can make additional money. Do not get any vaccine on your first Vet visit as the kitten will need time to adjust and you do not need to stress them any further !!!

* Nevertheless, when you pick up your kitten, it is necessary to go for a Vet check-in not less than 48 hours after you received your kitten for a general check-up and in case of any health problems, we will be responsible for either giving you a new kitten or refund your payment if no other kitten is available at the moment.
