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(all kittens on our available kittens page are ready). 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.
