Health records & vaccination details
What vaccinations do kittens receive?
All kittens receive two rounds of core vaccinations and deworming before going home. Your vet will handle any remaining boosters as needed. To ensure proper immunity, we recommend keeping your kitten indoors and avoiding contact with unknown animals until all vaccinations are completed.
Do you offer shipping?
We work with a trusted pet flight nanny for in-person delivery. We do not offer cargo shipping and only adopt to families within the USA.
Do you provide a health guarantee?
Yes, all kittens come with a contract and health guarantee upon reservation.
When is the next litter?
As a hobby cattery, we focus on selective breeding rather than producing kittens on a fixed schedule. Our priority is quality over quantity, ensuring our kittens are raised in the best environment. The best way to stay updated is by following us on Instagram (@tinyfoldmunchkin) or joining our pre-approved list.
