Refund Policy

The conditions of use of the Jardin Des Animaux transactional site and the transactions made with this site are subject to these rules. Different rules may apply for in-store sales.

Item availability and delivery times

Le Jardin des Animaux allows itself a maximum of 18 hours to process orders for products in inventory. Depending on the delivery method chosen, you will normally receive your products within the timeframe prescribed by the delivery center. For local deliveries, we will personally deliver your purchases within 24 hours of processing your order.

However, we cannot be held responsible for failure to meet these deadlines. If a product is not available in stock at the time of your purchase, we will notify you by telephone or email of the possible delivery date. Know that we receive deliveries from our suppliers every week.

We deliver our products in Quebec only. For other destinations, we can easily deliver to your home but with other conditions of use that will be sent to you by email or dictated over the phone. Certain regions of Quebec are excluded from our normal delivery territory, for example the regions of the far north.

Price of products on the transactional site

The prices displayed on our transactional site are in Canadian dollars. Taxes and delivery charges will be added to the price of the products purchased. All orders are payable in Canadian dollars and transactions must be completed prior to delivery.

Shipping cost

Delivery costs also include preparation and packaging costs in addition to the postage requested by Canada Post. These delivery costs are established according to the delivery method chosen by the customer when ordering. Delivery charges are based on the number of items ordered, their weight and the total amount of the order, before taxes.

Please refer to our delivery map. These costs may be subject to change if during the processing of the order there are irregularities.

Free delivery is only for the territory of Sherbrooke (see the local delivery map). There are also fixed delivery rates for the greater Sherbrooke area, regardless of the weight and quantity of products in the order (see the delivery map).

Heavy packages

Le Jardin des Animaux offers free delivery in Canada when you place an order of $89 or more before taxes up to a maximum of $25 in delivery costs. This surplus applies for remote regions or oversized orders. If your order exceeds 30Kg, we will have to split it into several orders and costs may be added. Certain products that are too heavy, such as litter, are excluded from delivery by Canada Post and can only be picked up in store or delivered to zones 1 to 4 around the greater Sherbrooke area by our trucks. Delivery in Sherbrooke zone 1 is always free.

Payment and method of payment

For each of the orders made on the transactional site of the Jardin Des Animaux, these must be paid by credit card or with your Paypal, Google Pay, Apple Pay account.
