Gift Adoption shipping information

Upon submitting your donation online, the adoption kit (including non-personalized adoption certificate, and plush animal at the $60 level and above) is processed immediately and shipped. You can choose to send the item to your own address, or directly to the recipient. We are not capable of delaying shipment of mailed items, though you can select a later email notification date if the recipient's email address is provided for the Personalized Online Adoption Certificate.  We cannot guarantee shipping timeframes, however estimated delivery time for mailed items to US addresses is 5-9 business days from the time of the donation.
