During the holiday season, increased package volumes often lead to unexpected shipping delays, which can create stressful and potentially harmful conditions for live animals in transit. To ensure the health and safety of the animals we care for, we implement an annual pause in live animal shipping. This pause allows us to avoid the heightened risks associated with holiday shipping and ensures that all animals are transported under the best possible conditions. Once shipping resumes, orders will be shipped in the order they were received and the order volume during our pause will determine how quickly we get to your order. Please be assured our team works hard to get all of these orders out as quickly as possible!
Please note, orders with only hard goods will still ship during this time.
