How a reservation works.

Four steps, one principle: the animal moves only when both it and you are ready.

01 / Reserve

Pick the morph,
pay 20% deposit.

Your deposit holds the specific animal for 14 days. Fully refundable if our vet doesn't clear the welfare review.

02 / Documents

PARIVESH papers,
delivered first.

You receive the animal's PARIVESH reference, weight curve, feeding log and photographs before paying the balance.

03 / Setup check

Enclosure photo,
then dispatch.

Send a photograph of the ready enclosure. We approve, you pay the 80% balance, and the animal ships overnight.

04 / Aftercare

A keeper, on
WhatsApp · 30 days.

Direct line to our keeper-on-call for the first month — Hindi, English, Tamil and Marathi.

In residence now.

Six animals our curator considers most worth seeing this week.

— What we don't sell

Wild caught.
Venomous.
Anything in poor health.

Every animal here is captive-bred by a PARIVESH-registered partner we have personally visited. None are venomous — by policy, not by chance. Any animal that fails a single welfare checkpoint — irregular shed, weight loss, refused meal — does not leave us.

That means small inventory. We think that's the right tradeoff.
