Shipping and Delivery
Maine Coon Mart helps families across the United States welcome a kitten home safely and with as little stress as possible. Shipping is never treated as a routine box to check. Each trip is planned around kitten age, weather, route timing, and the smoothest handoff for you and your new companion.
Where We Deliver
United States Coverage
Delivery options are available throughout the continental United States. Requests for Alaska, Hawaii, or other destinations can be discussed, though availability depends on timing, airline rules, and safety conditions.
Local Pickup
Pickup is available by appointment. Families who prefer to meet in person can choose this option when scheduling allows.
Delivery Options
Flight Nanny Delivery
A flight nanny can escort your kitten in cabin and deliver in person at an agreed airport. This option is designed to reduce travel time and keep the kitten supervised from departure to arrival. The exact meeting location and timing will be confirmed in advance.
Ground Delivery
Ground delivery may be available for certain routes and schedules. This option can be a good fit for shorter distances or when flight schedules are limited. Travel plans are shared before confirmation, including the estimated arrival window.
Buyer Arranged Transport
Families sometimes prefer using a transport provider they already trust. Maine Coon Mart can coordinate timing for pickup once the provider details are confirmed and approved.
Travel Readiness and Health
When a Kitten Can Travel
Kittens travel only when they are developmentally ready, eating well, using the litter box reliably, and handling normal routine changes with confidence. Timing is confirmed individually for each kitten, not by a fixed calendar promise.
Health Records
A written health record and current care notes are provided with every kitten. Families receive guidance for the first days at home, including feeding, hydration, and comfort routines after travel.
Weather and Safety Delays
Travel can be postponed when temperatures, storms, or airline disruptions create unnecessary risk. Safety comes first, even when it causes an inconvenience.
Costs and Scheduling
Shipping Fees
Delivery pricing depends on distance, method, and timing. A quote is provided before any travel is booked. Shipping fees are separate from the kitten price unless stated in writing.
Booking Timeline
Travel is scheduled after reservation steps are complete and the kitten is cleared for travel. Many families secure dates early, then confirm final details closer to the go home window.
Airport and Delivery Day Instructions
What You Need to Bring
A valid photo ID is required for airport meetups. Bringing a secure carrier, a small blanket, and paper towels is recommended for comfort and cleanliness during the trip home.
Arrival Expectations
A pickup window is shared in advance. Travel days can involve minor delays, so communication stays open until your kitten is safely in your arms.
Receiving Your Kitten
First Hour at Home
A quiet room, fresh water, and a prepared litter box help your kitten settle quickly. Food should match the current diet for the first days to avoid stomach upset.
Vet Visit Recommendation
A new kitten exam with your veterinarian soon after arrival is strongly encouraged to establish care and confirm overall wellbeing.
