Shipping Policy

Animals:

We ship animals ONLY through UPS Overnight Priority. Please call us after ordering an animal to schedule shipping. We sometimes drop off straight at the airport to reduce travel time and risk at no extra cost to you. We additionally use some of the most advanced packaging in the industry to ensure your animals arrive safely. We Only ship live orders on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays to prevent weekend delays and carrier mishandling.

We may ship your order in 2 simultaneous shipments if your order will not fit in one shipping box, or if overnight shipping is selected for live orders that contain bulky dry goods, instead of charging extra shipping for shipping these bulky goods overnight or 2-day. Dry goods and plants may be shipped UPS/USPS depending on the speed and cost of shipping.

HF Advanced Tracking:

For an initial extra $30, we add a tracking device to your overnight package to ensure that we (and you) know exactly where your package is at any time, day or night. Simply call use to get real time location data for your package including screenshots of the exact location. When you receive your package, simply put the pre-paid envelope containing the tracking device in any Mailbox or drop off at any USPS location. As soon as the tracking device is received safely by us, you will be refunded $25, making this service a total of just $5.

Refunds/Returns

Refunds will be processed in 7-30 business days. We do not currently accept returns. Any orders canceled within 48 hours will be refunded in full unless already packed or shipped. Any orders canceled after packing but before shipping will be charged a 20% restocking fee to recoup labor costs and packing material costs (such as heat packs which cannot be reused).

If a dispute is filed with a credit card company/bank/Paypal before attempting to reach us by phone to resolve any issues, you will be responsible for the $20 chargeback fee and will be placed on our Do-Not-Sell list. We will make right any issue on your order, but will not tolerate scammers.
