In all cases where a kitten travels by air there is the cost of an I.A.T.A approved flight carrier box. Additional papers may include ownership transfer, certified pedigree documentation, exportation health certificate, these may be a standard format from our vet or they may be an official health certificate issued by DEFRA and completed by a ministry vet,  some airlines on long haul flights require a health certificate also and some an affidavit to cover the  stop over flights. Sometimes there are extra vaccinations and blood tests, micro - chipping, as well as special parasite treatments. If you would like to import one of our kittens - please familiarize yourselves with the  necessary criteria  by contacting your own Ministry of Agriculture and Veterinary Surgery to find out the rules that need to be met and please find out an approximate cost for all the extras especially flights before you ask us to reserve a kitten for you.  Many  expenses are stipulated by airline companies - government officials - and ministry veterinarians for the best interests and welfare of the kitten to make the journey as safe and comfortable as possible and these are unavoidable.  We  normally take deposits from kitten purchasers in the UK, however from an exportation perspective  we will in most cases ask for an initial deposit to secure the reservation of any kitten going to another country which will be 50 percent of the cost. The full cost of the kitten is expected by the age of 12 weeks. Should the kitten purchaser change their minds  there will be no refund of deposit. We do however reserve the right to change our minds on exporting a kitten,  if this is the case the deposit paid by purchaser  will be refunded in full, less bank transaction fees.
