If you google the shippers address, you'll note that it is for the Holiday Inn in Vancouver.
I sent my final response by text, thanking the person for giving me enough information to identify their operation as a scam and report them accordingly. The person is furiously back pedalling and has asked for 3 hours to provide me with contact information of the company that they supposedly just made arrangements for pet delivery with. No money changed hands and the only one worse for wear is me for having my heart set on the precious kitten in the photo.
So a heads up for:
