COMMON QUESTIONS

Shipping FAQs

How old must kittens be before shipping?

Maine Coon kittens must be at least 12 weeks old before they can be shipped. This ensures they are properly weaned and developmentally ready for travel.

Is shipping stressful for the kittens?

We take every precaution to minimize stress. Kittens are acclimated to their travel crates before the journey, and we only use pet-friendly airlines with climate-controlled cargo areas.

Domestic shipping usually takes 1-6 hours depending on your location. We arrange direct flights whenever possible to minimize travel time.
