Welcome to The Pet Food Company. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our website and the purchase of our products. By placing an order, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Eligibility & Account
By using this site, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information and for all activities that occur under your account.
2. Product Specifications & Pricing
-
Perishable Nature: You acknowledge that our products are raw, frozen meat and require specific handling and storage.
-
Variations: Because we use natural ingredients, slight variations in color, texture, and smell between batches are normal and do not constitute a defect.
-
Pricing: We reserve the right to change prices at any time without notice. All prices are exclusive of shipping costs unless otherwise stated.
3. Shipping & Delivery (The "Raw Meat" Clause)
Due to the perishable nature of our products, the following conditions apply:
-
Delivery Windows: We provide estimated delivery dates. However, we are not liable for delays caused by third-party couriers.
-
Customer Responsibility: It is your responsibility to be available to receive the delivery or provide a safe, cool place for the package.

Immediate Storage: Once delivered, products must be placed in a freezer or refrigerator immediately. The Pet Food Company is not responsible for spoilage due to improper storage after the package has been marked as "Delivered" by the courier.
4. No Returns or Refunds
In accordance with our Return Policy, we do not accept returns or offer refunds for change of mind, pet preference (refusal to eat), or shipping delays beyond our control. Refunds or replacements are strictly limited to faulty or damaged goods reported within 24 hours of delivery with photographic evidence.
5. Health & Safety Disclaimer
-
Safe Handling: You agree to follow safe handling procedures for raw meat (e.g., washing hands and surfaces after contact). The Pet Food Company is not liable for illness resulting from improper handling or cross-contamination in your home.
-
Pet Health: Our products are intended for animal consumption only. While we provide nutritional information, it is your responsibility to consult with a veterinarian regarding your pet’s specific dietary needs or allergies.
