Precautions

Not Long-Term Use: This specific diet is only meant for short-term use and should not be fed to your cat for longer than six months.
Veterinary Consultation: It is important to consult your vet before you start or continue using this food to make sure it is right choice for your cat's health.
Proper Transitioning: Changing food too quickly can lead to stomach issues, so you should always switch to this diet slowly over at least a week.
Correct Portioning: Feeding the wrong amount can interfere with weight loss, so it is best to measure the food accurately, using a gram scale if possible.

Possible Side Effects

Digestive Changes: Some cats might have slightly different bowel movements, such as softer stools, while they get used to a diet that contains more fiber.
Increased Thirst: Higher fiber intake may increase water consumption, making consistent access to fresh water important.
Temporary Appetite Changes: Cats may initially show reduced or altered appetite as they adjust to calorie-controlled feeding.

This Shipping Policy explains how orders are processed, shipped, tracked, and delivered.

1. Shipping Origin and Fulfillment

Orders are dispatched from our U.S.-based fulfillment center. We deliver to eligible addresses within the United States and to eligible international destinations shown at checkout.

If a destination, shipping service, or product is not eligible for delivery, checkout will not offer that shipping option.

2. Order Processing Time

Orders are generally processed within 1–5 business days before shipment. Processing time is separate from carrier transit time.

Our order cut-off time is 6:00 PM Pacific Time (PT). Orders placed after the cut-off time, on weekends, or on applicable holidays begin processing on the next business day.

Processing may include order verification and preparation for shipment.

3. U.S. Shipping Methods, Costs, and Transit Times

For eligible U.S. addresses, our current shipping options are:

Priority Shipping: $5.99 — estimated carrier transit time of 1–2 business days after shipment.
Standard Shipping: $2.99 — estimated carrier transit time of 3–6 business days after shipment.
Free Shipping: $0 — estimated carrier transit time of 5–8 business days after shipment.

Total estimated delivery time includes both the 1–5 business day processing period and the applicable carrier transit time. The shipping service, cost, and delivery estimate available for your order are shown at checkout before payment.

4. International Shipping

We ship to eligible international destinations. Available international shipping services, shipping charges, and estimated delivery times vary by destination and are displayed at checkout.

For eligible international orders, applicable import duties and taxes are calculated and collected at checkout where required. When these charges apply, the order is shipped on a duties-and-taxes-paid basis so that the same import charges should not be collected again at delivery.

International delivery estimates may be affected by carrier operations, customs processing, local holidays, weather, or other events outside normal transit conditions.

5. Tracking

When tracking is available, you will receive shipment confirmation with tracking information after the order has shipped. Please allow up to 48 hours for tracking information to become active after the carrier receives the shipment.

6. Address Accuracy and Changes

Please review your shipping address carefully before submitting an order. If you notice an address error, contact us as soon as possible. We will try to help before shipment, but an address change cannot be guaranteed once fulfillment or carrier processing has begun.

Additional carrier or re-delivery charges resulting from an incorrect or incomplete address may be the customer's responsibility where permitted by law.

7. Delayed or Lost Shipments

If your shipment has not arrived within the estimated delivery timeframe, please contact us. We will review the tracking information, work with the carrier when necessary, and assist with an appropriate resolution based on the circumstances.

Delivery estimates are not guarantees and may be affected by carrier delays, weather, public holidays, customs processing, or other transportation disruptions.

If an item arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, contact us within 7 calendar days after confirmed delivery. Please include your order number and clear photos of the item, packaging, and shipping label when relevant.

Approved cases are handled under our Return & Refund Policy, including return-shipping assistance when the issue is our responsibility.

Returned with the original packaging, tags, accessories, manuals, and other included components, when applicable.
Not specifically identified as final sale or non-returnable before purchase.

Products that show use, alteration, avoidable damage, missing components, or other conditions outside the eligibility requirements may be ineligible for a refund.
