Shipping Process
The shipping process for kittens at your #1 cat breeders Ann Munchkin Cattery is carefully structured to ensure both parties are aligned, with the following key points:
Reservation Timing: Kittens can be reserved once they are 8 weeks old. After confirming an application, potential buyers are notified when the kittens are ready for visitation and reservation. Buyers may visit the kittens (if feasible), and a fully refundable deposit of £400.00 is required to secure a kitten. This deposit is part of the total cost and fully refundable due to the lost opportunity of other placements during the holding time.
Payment Flexibility: Payment terms and the advance payment size are discussed on an individual basis with each buyer.
Reservation Finalization: A kitten is only considered reserved once the Reservation Agreement is signed and the deposit is paid. Mere discussion does not guarantee ownership of the kitten.
Cattery Rights: Anna Munchkin and Scottish Fold Cattery retains the right to decline the sale of any kitten without providing reasons at any point.
Payment and Transfer:
- Initial Payment: The buyer must make a 60% advance payment of the kitten’s cost (via bank transfer) and 100% payment for delivery services (for non-residents) before transferring the kitten.
- Full Payment: The kitten will only be transferred to the buyer once full payment is completed, with the possibility of installment payments.
- Transfer Age: Kittens younger than 10 weeks will not be transferred. By 3 months of age, they are fully adapted, litter trained, scratching post accustomed, vaccinated, and dewormed.
Documentation Included:
The following documents are provided free of charge upon signing the Kitten Purchase and Sale Agreement:
