The price for cats is the total one and includes all vaccinations and neutering/spaying. (Neutering a kitten is our free option with no fee.)

It is generally considered safe to spay kittens before they are fully grown. In fact, many veterinarians recommend spaying or neutering kittens as early as 8-16 weeks old. This is known as early-age spay/neuter or pediatric spay/neuter.

Early spaying has several benefits:

  • Reduced risk of certain health issues: Spaying\Neutering a kitten before it first heat cycle can significantly reduce the risk of mammary cancer and eliminates the risk of uterine infections and other reproductive system diseases.
  • Easier recovery: Younger kittens tend to recover faster from surgery with fewer complications.
  • Population control: Spaying\Neutering a kitten before it reaches sexual maturity helps prevent unwanted litters and contributes to reducing the population of homeless cats.
  • Behavioral benefits: Spaying can help prevent behaviors associated with a cat’s heat cycle, such as excessive vocalization, marking, and escaping from the home.

However, it is important to consult with a veterinarian to determine the best time to spay a kitten based on it individual health, breed, and circumstances.  We will definitely do this if the age and health conditions of a kitten allow occurring the surgery before being shipped. We will not neuter/spay the kitten in the cases if a buyer will ask to neuter a kitten on its own or will buy the breeding rights for an additional cost with the kitten)

Declawing a cat might seem like a quick solution to prevent scratching, but it is a deeply harmful and inhumane practice. This procedure involves amputating the last bone of each toe, equivalent to cutting off a human finger at the last knuckle. The surgery is painful and can lead to long-term physical and emotional issues for cats.

First and foremost, declawing causes severe pain, both immediately and in the long term. Many cats develop chronic pain or nerve damage, which can make walking, jumping, or even standing difficult. Without their claws, cats lose an essential tool for balance, climbing, and self-defense.

The psychological impact is just as troubling. Declawed cats often exhibit behavioral changes like increased aggression and biting, as they feel defenseless without their claws. Many also develop litter box problems because digging in litter can become too painful for their sensitive paws.

Declawing is banned in many countries and states because it is seen as cruel and unnecessary. There are far better alternatives, like regular nail trimming, providing scratching posts, or using nail caps, which allow cats to live pain-free and engage in their natural behaviors.

Ultimately, declawing is a quick fix that results in long-lasting harm. It is a practice that prioritizes convenience over the well-being of the animal, making it both inhumane and unnecessary. Cats deserve to live full, healthy lives without enduring the trauma of declawing.

After the unexpected loss of my cat Jasper on Memorial Day, I never thought I’d get another cat so quickly. However, his sister Luna was very sad and needed another companion to help with her stress. At first I was skeptical, but then decided to bite the bullet and go through with reaching out to Meowoff. I paid the Deposit and in a couple of weeks I flew to Chicago to pick up my new Kitten. The day I flew is the day that the Airlines shutdown so luckily I was almost home. Aside from the 24 hour flight process and hiccup due to the planes being grounded, I finally got home with my new baby, and within a week Luna was used to her. Overall, I would buy from Meowoff again and again, why, because they are very nice and attentive to all your needs and questions. Thank you Meowoff Crew, we love Georgia D.!!!!!

We recently purchased a beautiful Bengal kitten from MeowOff, and honestly, we were a bit nervous at first, fearing it might be a scam. I understand if you are weary as their Facebook/yelp reviews didn’t help…But we got our kitten (2 weeks late because of air travel) and the team at MeowOff was thoughtful and professional, answering all our questions and keeping us updated throughout the process. Our kitten arrived safe and sound, and she is not only healthy but also incredibly confident and playful. It’s clear that she was well taken care of. We couldn’t be happier with our new addition, and we highly recommend MeowOff to anyone looking for a furry companion. Thank you for making this such a great experience and we love our Prada!

After many years of searching for a perfect british short hair fur baby to adopt, hoping I could find one locally but there was no luck since it’s one of those cat breeds that are surrendered rarely and snatched up very quickly! Luckily, I stumbled upon Meowoff online after a random search and thought this is it if not now when?! I was skeptical at first but as desperate as I was I went ahead and placed the deposit without much research. I ended up waited a good 6 weeks with very little communation from their part. The staffs are friendly enough to reply in a timely manner whenever I reach out with questions and concerns. I just wish they would at least give me weekly updates especially as a new customer! I definitely reccommend meowoff to anyone only if you are prepare to wait at least up to 6 weeks if the kittens aren’t available for pick up on their website! I am very happy with Emily and will consider getting a second one from meowoff in the future! :D

We absolutely love George!! And he’s been a great addition to our family. Communication, support, and quick responses from MeoWoof is why we’ve suggested them to our friends and family. We’re already planning for 1 more addition from MeoWoof this fall.
