Certificate Disclaimer
All certificates issued by Cats First Advocacy are symbolic and ceremonial in nature. They represent a philosophical acknowledgment within the Cats First framework and carry no legal effect.

Membership & Donations
Memberships in Cats First Advocacy are support-based. Membership does not constitute legal representation, legal advice, or any form of fiduciary relationship.
Donations and membership fees support the operations of Cats First Advocacy, including public education, community building, civic advocacy for cat-friendly infrastructure, shelter capacity expansion, and trap-neuter-return program support.
Refund & Return Policy
Cats First Advocacy maintains a fair and transparent refund policy consistent with the operational standards of a sovereign advocacy organization. The following provisions govern all merchandise purchases, membership subscriptions, and donations processed through this website.
Merchandise
All merchandise offered by Cats First Advocacy — including but not limited to mugs, bandanas, water bottles, and tumblers — is produced on demand through authorized manufacturing partners. Each item is fabricated upon receipt of order and is therefore non-returnable under ordinary circumstances.
Returns and replacements are accepted exclusively in the following cases: the item arrived with a manufacturing defect, the item was damaged during transit, or the item received differs materially from the item ordered. Requests must be submitted within fourteen (14) days of confirmed delivery to provisions@catsfirst.ca, accompanied by photographic evidence of the defect or discrepancy.
Replacement or refund for qualifying claims is handled by our manufacturing partner in accordance with their quality assurance protocols. Cats First Advocacy does not accept returns based on change of mind, incorrect sizing selections made by the purchaser, or general dissatisfaction with the philosophical implications of feline sovereignty.
Shipping
In the event that a shipment is lost, delayed beyond reasonable expectation, or otherwise fails to arrive at its designated territory, Cats First Advocacy will coordinate with the carrier to investigate and resolve the matter. Purchasers should report shipping concerns to provisions@catsfirst.ca with the relevant order number and tracking information.
Memberships
Membership subscriptions may be cancelled at any time through the member's account or by contacting Cats First Advocacy directly. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds are issued for the remaining duration of an active billing cycle. The decision to withdraw support for feline sovereignty is, of course, entirely voluntary — however misguided.
Donations
All donations to Cats First Advocacy are final and non-refundable. Contributions are accepted as voluntary acts of solidarity with the cause of feline territorial recognition and are applied to the organization's operational, educational, and advocacy activities. This is standard practice among legitimate advocacy organizations — a category to which Cats First Advocacy belongs without qualification.
Contact
All refund, return, and shipping inquiries should be directed to the Office of Provisions at provisions@catsfirst.ca. Requests are reviewed by the Designated Human Representative and processed in a timely manner befitting an organization of this standing.
No Government Affiliation
Cats First Advocacy is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or recognized by any government, municipality, regulatory body, or official institution. All references to sovereignty, territorial claims, and governance are made within the satirical and philosophical framework of the organization.
