Safe and Reliable Shipping for Your Maine Coon Kitten
Fluffy Coon Kittens is committed to ensuring a safe and comfortable transition for every Maine coon kitten as they travel to their new homes. Our top priority is the health, security, and well being of our kittens throughout the entire shipping process. Whether you are local or out of state, we strive to make the journey as smooth and stress free as possible for both you and your new companion.
Shipping Options
We offer several convenient shipping options to accommodate families across the United States:
Air Cargo: Your kitten will travel in a climate controlled, pressurized cabin with a reputable airline, prioritized for live animal care and monitored closely during the journey.
In Cabin Flight Nanny: For maximum security and comfort, a professional flight nanny can accompany your kitten in cabin as a carry on, personally caring for them throughout the flight and delivering them directly to you at your nearest major airport.
Ground Transport: In certain locations, we may offer ground delivery with licensed and insured pet transporters who specialize in feline care.
Shipping Preparation
Before shipping, each kitten undergoes a thorough health examination by a licensed veterinarian to confirm fitness for travel. You will receive a signed health certificate and full medical records. Kittens are provided with:
- A comfortable, airline approved carrier lined with soft bedding
- A familiar toy or blanket with home scents to ease anxiety
- A small portion of their regular food and water for the trip
We ensure all required vaccinations and treatments are administered before departure.
Age and Timing
Kittens are shipped only when they reach a minimum of 12 weeks of age and have completed their essential health protocols. We work with you to schedule the most convenient and appropriate travel dates, taking into account flight availability, weather conditions, and the kitten’s best interest.
Shipping days are typically scheduled early in the week to avoid weekend delays and ensure timely delivery.
Cost and Payment
Shipping costs depend on your location, preferred shipping method, and current airline rates or ground transportation fees. Costs typically range from $350 to $600, depending on the service selected. All shipping fees must be paid in full before the kitten departs. We provide a detailed breakdown of charges prior to booking and require your approval before arranging transportation.
Pre Shipping Communication
You will be notified in advance of all travel plans, including flight numbers, transport details, estimated arrival times, and tracking information if applicable. We are available to answer any questions and offer support as you prepare for your kitten’s arrival.
Pick Up and Delivery
We coordinate every step of your kitten’s journey and will notify you when your kitten is en route and upon arrival. For air shipments, please arrive at the cargo office or passenger pickup promptly with a proper ID. Flight nannies will meet you at a designated public meeting area inside the airport terminal. For ground deliveries, we will confirm the exact location and time in advance.
Travel Safety and Comfort
Your kitten’s comfort and security are closely monitored throughout transit, and each animal is handled exclusively by experienced, animal loving professionals. In the rare event of a flight delay or travel disruption, we maintain close contact to provide timely updates and ensure the best care for your kitten.
Shipping Restrictions
Certain destinations may have weather or import restrictions, and not all airlines or ground services are available in all regions. We will review your location during the purchasing process and advise of any limitations or alternative arrangements.
