Kitten Ordering, Payment & Delivery FAQs

How Can I Place an Order for a Kitten?

To reserve a kitten, our available Maine Coon kittens can be browsed on giantmainecoonkitten.com, and the kitten you are interested in can be selected.

Once a kitten has been chosen, the reservation or inquiry form should be completed with your contact information and any requested details.

You will then be contacted by our team to:

  • Confirm that the kitten is still available
  • Answer any questions you may have
  • Explain the reservation process
  • Provide payment instructions
  • Discuss pickup or delivery options
  • Provide information about your kitten’s preparation and expected availability

A kitten is considered reserved only after the required reservation payment or deposit has been received and confirmed.

For assistance, we can be contacted at info@giantmainecoonkitten.com.

Can I Visit and Pick Up My Kitten in Person?

Yes. In-person pickup can be arranged at our San Antonio, Texas location.

Pickup Location:
4411 Medical Dr
San Antonio, TX 78229
United States

Pickup must be scheduled in advance so that your kitten and the appropriate documentation can be prepared.

Please contact us before traveling so that availability can be confirmed and a suitable pickup date and time arranged.

What Is Included When I Receive My Kitten?

The exact documentation and veterinary information provided may vary depending on the kitten.

Before a kitten leaves our care, the buyer is provided with the applicable information available for that kitten.

This may include:

  • Age-appropriate vaccination information
  • Deworming information
  • Available veterinary records
  • Feeding and care information
  • Kitten identification information
  • Available registration or pedigree documentation, where applicable
  • Purchase or reservation documentation

If you would like to know exactly what is included with a particular kitten, we can be contacted before your reservation is completed.

How Do I Pay the Remaining Balance?

After a kitten has been reserved, any outstanding balance must be completed according to the payment instructions provided for your order.

You will be contacted directly regarding:

  • Your remaining balance
  • Payment deadline
  • Pickup or delivery arrangements
  • Any applicable transportation costs

If your kitten is being delivered, full payment may be required before transportation arrangements are finalized.

For in-person pickup, payment arrangements should be confirmed with us before your scheduled pickup date.

Payment instructions should always be verified with us at info@giantmainecoonkitten.com before funds are sent if you have any questions.

What Payment Methods Do You Accept?

Several convenient payment methods are currently accepted:

  • PayPal
  • Cash App
  • Zelle
  • Venmo
  • Cryptocurrency

Available payment options may depend on the transaction.

Once your kitten reservation has been confirmed, the appropriate payment details will be provided.

For your security, only payment information provided through our official communication channels should be used. According to the Federal Trade Commission, scammers often pressure buyers to pay through unusual methods, so caution is advised.

If payment instructions are received that appear unusual or different from previous instructions, we should be contacted at info@giantmainecoonkitten.com before payment is made.

Do You Accept Cryptocurrency?

Yes. Cryptocurrency is one of our available payment options.

If cryptocurrency is your preferred method, we should be contacted before payment is sent so that the correct wallet address, cryptocurrency type, amount, and payment instructions can be provided.

Because cryptocurrency transactions are generally irreversible, the wallet information should always be verified carefully before your transaction is completed.

Why Might I Have to Wait Before My Kitten Is Ready?

Our priority is making sure each kitten is properly prepared before moving to its new home.

Depending on the kitten’s age and individual circumstances, additional time may be needed for:

  • Age-appropriate vaccinations
  • Veterinary care
  • Health preparation
  • Weaning
  • Social development
  • Documentation
  • Transportation arrangements

The expected availability date can therefore vary from kitten to kitten.

Before a kitten is reserved, information about its current age, status, and estimated readiness date can be provided.

At What Age Can My Kitten Go to Its New Home?

The appropriate age for a kitten to leave depends on its development, health, vaccination schedule, and other individual circumstances.

Kittens are never rushed into new homes simply to meet a particular date. In fact, veterinary experts such as those at the American Veterinary Medical Association note that adequate time with littermates supports healthy social development.

You will be informed about your kitten’s expected availability and any important preparations before pickup or delivery.

If you are interested in a specific kitten, we can be contacted for its current age and estimated availability.

Can I See a Kitten Before Placing a Deposit?

We understand that choosing a Maine Coon kitten is an important decision.

Depending on availability and circumstances, additional information may be requested by prospective buyers before a reservation is made.

This can include:

  • Recent photos
  • Videos
  • Additional information about the kitten
  • Temperament observations
  • Coat color and pattern information
  • Information about the parents, where available
  • Veterinary or vaccination information, where available

Your request can be sent through our website or directly to info@giantmainecoonkitten.com.

If you would like to visit us in San Antonio, please contact us first so that an appointment can be arranged and the viewable kittens confirmed.

Can I Request More Photos or Videos of a Kitten?

Yes.

If a particular kitten is being seriously considered, additional recent photos or videos may be requested.

When contacting us, please provide the name, identification, or webpage of the kitten you are interested in so that the correct kitten can be identified.

Requests can be emailed to info@giantmainecoonkitten.com.

Can I See Photos of the Kitten’s Parents?

Where parent photos and information are available, they may be requested before your kitten is reserved.

Parent information can be useful for understanding characteristics such as:

  • Coat
  • Color
  • Facial features
  • General appearance
  • Lineage
  • Potential adult characteristics

However, the eventual size, appearance, personality, and physical development of an individual kitten cannot be guaranteed solely based on its parents.

How Does Kitten Delivery Work?

Delivery options depend on your location, the kitten, transportation availability, and current travel conditions.

When delivery is available, the available options will be discussed with you before arrangements are finalized.

Depending on your location, transportation may involve an appropriate pet transportation service or another agreed delivery method.

Before transportation, relevant information will be provided regarding:

  • Delivery arrangements
  • Transportation method
  • Expected schedule
  • Pickup or meeting instructions
  • Transportation cost
  • Any documentation you may need

Delivery charges, when applicable, are communicated before the transportation arrangement is approved.

Do You Ship Kittens Across the United States?

Delivery may be available to customers in different parts of the United States.

Transportation arrangements depend on factors such as:

  • Your location
  • The kitten’s age
  • Weather conditions
  • Transportation availability
  • Health and safety considerations
  • Carrier requirements

Please contact us with your city, state, and ZIP code so that the most appropriate delivery option available for your location can be discussed.

What Is Hand Delivery?

Hand delivery involves arranging for your kitten to be transported personally to an agreed destination or meeting location rather than using a standard cargo arrangement.

Depending on the transportation arrangement, a responsible pet courier may accompany the kitten during travel.

Hand delivery can provide additional supervision throughout the journey.

Availability and pricing depend on:

  • Your location
  • Travel distance
  • Flight or transportation costs
  • Scheduling
  • The specific delivery arrangement

We can be contacted for an individual delivery quote.

Will I Receive Delivery Information?

Yes.

Once transportation has been confirmed, the relevant delivery information available for your arrangement will be provided.

This may include:

  • Scheduled delivery date
  • Expected arrival information
  • Transportation details
  • Meeting or pickup instructions
  • Contact information relevant to the delivery

Your phone and email should be kept accessible around the scheduled delivery period in case an update is necessary.

Can Weather Affect My Kitten’s Delivery?

Yes.

The kitten’s health and safety come first. Severe heat, cold, storms, flight disruptions, transportation restrictions, or other unsafe travel conditions may require transportation to be delayed or rescheduled.

If this happens, an appropriate alternative arrangement will be determined together with you.

What Happens If My Payment Doesn’t Go Through?

If your payment is unsuccessful, all payment details should first be checked for accuracy.

Depending on your chosen payment method, a transaction may occasionally fail because of:

  • Daily transaction limits
  • Bank security restrictions
  • Insufficient available funds
  • Fraud-prevention systems
  • Incorrect recipient details
  • Account restrictions
  • Cryptocurrency network or wallet issues

For services such as PayPal, Cash App, Zelle, or Venmo, the applicable payment provider or your financial institution may need to be contacted.

Alternatively, we can be contacted at info@giantmainecoonkitten.com so that another available payment method can be discussed.

Is a Kitten Reserved Before I Pay a Deposit?

Submitting an inquiry does not automatically reserve a kitten.

A kitten remains available until the applicable reservation requirements have been completed and your reservation has been confirmed.

Because availability can change, the reservation process should be completed promptly once a kitten has been decided upon.

Can I Transfer My Deposit to Another Kitten?

Deposit transfers are not automatic.

If a particular kitten has been reserved and a change to another kitten is later wished for, we should be contacted as soon as possible.

Whether a deposit can be transferred will depend on circumstances such as:

  • The status of your original reservation
  • Whether preparations have already been made for the kitten
  • Availability of the new kitten
  • Any expenses already incurred
  • The reservation terms provided for your purchase

Requests are reviewed individually.

Please contact us before it is assumed that a deposit can be transferred.

What Happens If the Kitten I Reserved Becomes Unavailable?

Although uncommon, circumstances involving a living animal can sometimes change unexpectedly.

For example, a kitten may develop a health concern that makes relocation inappropriate or may need additional veterinary care before leaving.

If we are unable to proceed with your reserved kitten, you will be contacted so that the available options can be discussed based on the circumstances and the terms of your reservation.

The kitten’s health and welfare will always take priority.

Can I Change My Pickup or Delivery Date?

If your scheduled pickup or delivery date needs to be changed, we should be contacted as early as possible.

Reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate your request, but changes may depend on:

  • Transportation schedules
  • Courier availability
  • The kitten’s needs
  • Existing appointments
  • Travel arrangements already booked

Additional transportation expenses caused by buyer-requested changes may be the buyer’s responsibility when disclosed and agreed upon.

What Should I Bring When Picking Up My Kitten?

When your kitten is picked up in person, the following items are recommended:

  • A secure cat carrier
  • Valid identification
  • Your reservation or order information
  • Any required payment confirmation
  • A small towel or blanket for the carrier

Any additional pickup instructions will be provided before your scheduled appointment.

What Food Do Your Maine Coon Kittens Eat?

Diet can vary depending on the kitten’s age and individual needs.

When your kitten is ready to leave, the food it is already accustomed to should be continued for the first several days unless your veterinarian advises otherwise.

A sudden food change can sometimes cause digestive upset.

High-quality kitten foods commonly used for growing cats may include reputable brands formulated specifically for kittens and large-breed development.

Your kitten’s specific feeding information can be provided before pickup or delivery.

Can I Change My Kitten’s Food?

Yes, but a gradual transition is generally preferable.

If a change of food is decided upon, the new diet should be introduced gradually rather than being switched abruptly.

For advice concerning:

  • Food allergies
  • Sensitive stomachs
  • Raw diets
  • Supplements
  • Special dietary requirements
  • Medical diets

a licensed veterinarian who can evaluate your individual kitten should be consulted.

What Should I Do After Receiving My Kitten?

When your kitten arrives home, it should be given time to adjust gradually to its new surroundings.

The following steps are recommended:

  • Providing a quiet and safe room initially
  • Keeping fresh water available
  • Continuing its familiar food
  • Providing a clean litter box
  • Allowing the kitten time to explore
  • Introducing other pets gradually
  • Avoiding overwhelming the kitten with too many visitors immediately

Care should also be established with a licensed veterinarian, and the veterinary recommendations provided for your kitten should be followed. Helpful guidance on settling your new companion in can also be found among our available kittens and care resources.
