I did not hear back all day. I finally sent another email stating that if the animal will not arrive tomorrow, I want a full refund.
The unseasonably warm weather is now gone and waiting any longer would mean shipping in single digit temps which I do not want. This animal is gravid and I refuse to have her shipped in extreme temps.

Am I wrong to demand a refund?

I am sympathetic to family issues arising but at the same time, I don't want to jeopardize the animal.
I still have not gotten any word back so I am assuming that since I did not get a tracking number that the animal will not arrive tomorrow.

At this point the window of opportunity to ship in 40-50 degree temps has passed and since I have not heard anything regarding shipment, I would like a full refund. I realize people have problems and delays happen but in this case, I think the delay would negatively impact the animal and I do not feel I should have to deal with that and should be given a full refund.

What are your opinions on this?
Well to be truthfull i would get a full refund.Why take the added chances(temps lower) of losing her and the possible babies.
