Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: November 12, 2026

Welcome to Critter Chatter! This website is operated by Critter Chatter Animal Communication Services LLC, doing business as Critter Chatter (“we,” “us,” or “our”).

Our Services

Critter Chatter offers animal communication sessions, with optional Animal Reiki add-ons as described on our booking page. Available services and formats may change over time.

Animal communication is offered for personal insight and entertainment purposes only. Animal Reiki is a complementary wellness practice. Neither service is a substitute for veterinary diagnosis, treatment, or professional animal care. Individual experiences and outcomes may vary, and specific results are not guaranteed.

Please consult a licensed veterinarian regarding your animal's health or medical needs.

Appointments are subject to availability and any additional scheduling or cancellation terms communicated during booking.

Merchandise Purchases

Our online store offers merchandise produced through print-on-demand fulfillment partners.

We strive to present accurate product descriptions, photographs, colors, and pricing. However, colors may vary slightly depending on screen settings, and minor variations can occur during production.

All purchases are subject to product availability and successful payment processing. We reserve the right to correct listing errors or cancel orders that cannot be fulfilled, with appropriate refunds where required.
