Shipping
Is it truly secure for the kitten?
We receive numerous inquiries about the process of shipping a kitten. People often ask about its safety and how it works
Will the kitten be frightened? How long will it take? Will it be challenging for the kitten to be alone in a crate for such a long time?
This is how I explain the shipping process to ease individuals’ concerns about getting a kitten.
Shipping a kitten is indeed very safe. Please see the details below.
Shipping a kitten to a new location may initially seem cruel and distressing, but in reality, it is often harder for us humans than it is for the kittens. With my extensive shipping experience, I can confidently assure you that all the kittens are well taken care of. Airlines have a strong incentive to ensure the kittens’ well-being, as mistreatment could lead to lawsuits and dissatisfied customers. I attach food and feeding instructions to the crate and provide frozen water, which gradually thaws for the kittens’ convenience. They are also offered food during the journey.
To minimize transit stress, we always request direct flights. We provide a comfortable bed of shredded newspapers and often include a pig’s ear chew and a toy or sock with our scent to help the kittens feel secure.
Shipping is considered as an option because, although we find suitable homes for our kittens, they may not be located within a reasonable driving distance.
You may be wondering, is flying a kitten safe?
This question is frequently asked, and we wouldn’t consider it if it weren’t safe.
The kitten will be in the same air as the pilot flying the plane, and someone will be there to take care of them on board. We do not transport the kittens in the cargo section of the plane; they are shipped in the passenger section along with pet nannies until delivery is completed.
Our kittens have always arrived safely and in good health at their new homes. In fact, some have even said that it is more comfortable to fly a kitten than to drive with them for four hours or more. This belief stems from our trust in the professionalism of those involved in the shipping process. We offer shipping services within the USA, Canada, and worldwide.
