All live animal sales are final and we have a zero return policy. Although we do have a live arrival guarantee that applies only to the state of the animal once it arrives at the destination.

Note: Canceled and refunded animal orders prior to shipping will be charged a $10.00 cancellation fee. All canceled and refunded orders paid with Sezzle will be charged a 6% cancellation fee for the total value of the order. The $10.00 or 6% fee will be deducted from the refund provided. Why do we charge a cancellation fee? When an order is placed the animal and or goods are reserved and no longer available for sale to other customers. We also incur processing fees when the order is placed that we cannot recover. If an order is cancelled or refunded due to delayed shipping because of temperatures the fee will not be charged.
