Pre-Reservation Process and Care Guide

Kittens bring endless joy with their playful antics and soft purrs. However, adopting a kitten is more than just a fleeting love at first sight; it requires understanding the process of finding your furry friend and ensuring their well-being from day one. In this guide, we will walk you through our pre-reservation process and share essential tips on caring for your new kitten.

Understanding the Pre-Reservation Fee

Your journey to kitten ownership begins with a $30 refundable pre-reservation fee. By submitting this fee, you secure a spot on our waiting list, allowing you peace of mind as you prepare to welcome your new family member.

This fee helps us keep track of orders fairly and ensures that everyone gets a chance to choose their kitten. It also shows your commitment to bringing a cute little furball into your home.

What makes this fee even better is that if your plans change, it is fully refundable. This gives you flexibility while navigating the exciting world of kitten adoption.

Choosing Your Kitten: The Selection Process

When the kittens turn 5 weeks old, their unique personalities start to emerge, marking the beginning of the selection process. At this stage, you will have the opportunity to choose the perfect kitten for your family. The $30 pre-reservation fee will be applied towards your total deposit of $100.

Out of the $100 deposit, $70 is non-refundable. This non-refundable portion secures your chosen kitten. Be sure to consider your decision carefully, as it is an important commitment. After you finalize your selection, we will provide a kitten contract, a care brochure, an invoice, and a receipt for your deposit—all needed to ensure a smooth transition for your new pet.

Weekly Updates and Kitten Care Essentials

One of the highlights of our process is the weekly updates featuring adorable photos of your future kitten. These images help you bond even before your new pet arrives, building excitement and anticipation.

Our commitment to quality care means that all kittens receive up-to-date FVRCP vaccinations and regular deworming. Before you bring your kitten home, we ensure they are bathed, have their nails trimmed, and their teeth brushed—guaranteeing a clean and healthy start for your new companion.

Additionally, we provide a new kitten care kit that is filled with crucial items for your kitten's arrival. This kit includes resources on feeding, grooming, and health records, both in hard copy and sent to you via email. This ensures you have everything you need to succeed as a new kitten parent.

Safe Pickup Options for Your New Kitten

We recognize that logistics can be a concern when adopting a kitten. While shipping is not an option, we encourage you to pick up your new furry friend in person or travel home with them by car or plane.

If you need a carrier, please let us know in advance, and we will gladly provide one. This ensures your new kitten travels safely and comfortably.

When you come to pick up your kitten, please remember that only cash or certified checks will be accepted as payment. After completing your transaction, you’ll receive a receipt for your records, as detailed in the kitten contract.

Nutrition and Diet for Your Kitten

A crucial aspect of kitten care is providing the right nutrition. We exclusively offer Holistic Vet Blend vet-formulated recipes for our kittens after weaning. This highly rated food is designed to promote healthy growth and overall well-being.

To vary their diet, we rotate proteins to ensure a diverse intake of essential amino acids and support gut health. We ask that you review our kitten food resources, included in your welcome email, to ensure a smooth transition to your kitten's new diet at home.

It’s important to share with us the type of wet food you plan to feed your kitten, enabling a gradual and healthier switch in their diet.

Important Documentation and Veterinarian References

Although the registration paperwork is key to adopting a kitten, it is not automatically provided. If you wish to receive this paperwork, please mention it in your initial request. We strive to have everything in place so you can take your new bundle of joy home easily.

We also encourage potential owners to ask for a veterinarian reference. This ensures our commitment to responsible breeding and care, helping you feel confident that you are adopting a healthy kitten ready to become part of your family.
