Who can buy a kitten in our cattery?

You can buy a kitten in our cattery only if you are final buyer and buy a kitten for yourself.
We do not cooperate with resellers and other intermediaries, as well as we do not sell our kittens to pet stores (pet shops).
We negotiate only directly with a kitten’s buyer – the person with whom a kitten will live.
We have never cooperated with any intermediaries, we do not do it now and we are not going to do it in the future.

At what age can kittens leave the cattery?

We comply with international veterinary requirements, so all our kittens are fully vaccinated (Bioveta Biofel PCH + Bioveta Biofel PCHR) before moving to a new home. They can leave our cattery at the age not earlier than 4,5 months old if additional test such as rabies virus antibody test (rabies serology testing) is not needed for import into your country.

Rabies virus antibody test (rabies serology testing, rabies titration test)

This test is needed for import to all countries of the European Union, Japan and some other countries.
This test is not needed for import to the USA and Canada.
If you have not found your country on the list and do not know if you need this test – this is not a problem.
If you are interested in buying a kitten from my cattery, I can always clarify all the information in the competent authorities of your country.
If the rabies virus antibody test (rabies serology testing, rabies titration test) is needed to import into your country, then I will prepare all the necessary documents.
The cost of this test is paid by the buyer separately.

Other Questions

Someone uses photos of your kittens/cats and offers me to buy a kitten from SimbaIceberg cattery without a contract...

Unfortunately, many scammers use photos of our cats or even try to act on our behalf.
We recommend that you always contact us using contact form on our official website https://www.simba-iceberg.com/#contact-us or directly to info@simba-iceberg.com.
Contract:
We sell all our kittens only with the contract.
Such the contract fixes all terms of sale and transfer of money, all guarantees, as well as personal data of both parties under the contract (full names, residential address, passport details, other contact details and etc.).
We accept all payments only after full agreement of all points of the contract.
Emails:
We always conduct official correspondence from our official emails, that look like ***@simba-iceberg.com.
We do not use @gmail.com, @mail.com, @yahoo.com, @outlook.com and other unbranded mails.
Social networks:
If you contacted us on social networks, we can advise you.
But, if we need to discuss the terms of a particular deal, conclude a contract, transfer money, etc., we always ask you to contact us through our official website.
If you are offered to transfer money during the correspondence on any social network, then you can definitely be sure that the person you are communicating with has nothing to do with our cattery. This is a fraud.
We have never cooperated with any intermediaries (resellers, pet shops and etc.), we do not do it now and we are not going to do it in the future.
We do not negotiate in social networks and on third-party sites, we use only our official email for this.
