Zen Habitats Policies

Shipping 

At Zen Habitats our goal is to get your new enclosures to you as soon as possible.  All in-stock Zen Habitats brand items ordered by 2:00 pm EST will ship the same day, and orders after 2:00 pm will ship the next business day. All non-Zen Habitats brand products ship in 1-3 business days. We offer free shipping on all orders in the contiguous US!

We ship FedEx/UPS Ground from TN and UT.  Most products arrive in 2-5 days. 

All back-orders will ship as soon as new inventory becomes available.

Refunds 

If you are dissatisfied with your product, you can return your unused enclosure for a full refund within 30 days. Enclosures must be returned in the same condition they arrived in. For the health and safety of our customers' pets, we regret that we cannot accept the return of an enclosure after it has housed an animal. It must also be in the original packaging. We will then send you a shipping label. 

Refunds (if applicable): 

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund. 

If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within a few (based on your credit card company's processing policies) days. 

If you are waiting on a refund, check with your credit card company or your bank. Once we process the refund, we no longer have access to where the funds are. 

Replacements (if applicable): 

We only replace items if they are defective or damaged upon arrival. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at support@emzotic.com,  along with pictures of the damage, and we will send you a replacement.
