Gifting from Canada to Alappuzha

You select the pet and pay from Canada; we deliver to your family's address in Alappuzha, Kerala. India runs roughly 9.5 to 13.5 hours ahead of Canada, which is the practical detail most people underestimate — we put the schedule in writing so neither side is guessing at the other's hours. Our team plans the route in advance for a safe handover at your doorstep.

What your family receives

The pet arrives with its vaccination record and health documentation, and a 7-day health guarantee runs from delivery. We brief whoever receives the pet on feeding, vaccination schedule and settling-in, and we stay reachable afterwards — useful when the person who paid is several time zones away. Families across South India use this to mark birthdays, retirements and long-delayed family visits.

Feeding and daily routine

Set meal times and stick to them; free-feeding makes it hard to notice when a pet goes off its food. Change diet slowly and only after the pet has settled.

Costs beyond the purchase

Think in terms of years rather than the purchase. Vaccinations, food, grooming and vet care continue for the life of the pet. In Alappuzha, locate your nearest vet in advance so an urgent visit is not a scramble.
