If you need to return an item, this page explains how returns work. We’ve kept it simple so you know exactly what to do.
We don’t currently offer exchanges. If you’d like a different item, please return your original purchase for a refund and place a new order.
Quick Overview
Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase only
Returns are customer-led – customers arrange and pay for return shipping
Refunds are processed after the item is received and inspected
Faulty or damaged items are handled separately via our Warranty Claim Form
How to Request a Return
To request a return, submit our Return Request Form via the website Support > Contact > Enquiry Type 'Return'
Once your request is approved, you’ll receive:
The return shipping address
Clear return instructions
You’ll then need to organise return shipping using your preferred courier.
Important: Return shipping is arranged and paid for by the customer. We do not provide return shipping labels.
Return Timeframe
Return requests must be submitted within 30 days of the purchase date
Returns requested outside this timeframe are not eligible
Return Conditions
Returned items must:
Be in reasonable, unused condition
Include all original parts and hardware
Not show signs of damage caused by use or installation
Refunds exclude any original shipping fees paid at checkout.
Faulty or Damaged Items
If your item is faulty or arrives damaged, do not submit a return request.
Instead, please complete our Warranty Claim Form so we can assess the issue and assist you as quickly as possible.
Where You Purchased
Purchases from Hakuna Pets Websites
This returns process applies only to items purchased directly from:
hakunapets.com.au (Australia)
hakunapets.com (USA)
Purchases from Third-Party Retailers
If you purchased your item from another retailer (e.g. Amazon, Bunnings, Walmart), returns must be made directly with the original place of purchase, as they manage their own return policies.
After 30 Days
We’re unable to accept returns or offer refunds for orders submitted after 30 days from the purchase date.
This helps us process returns fairly and ensure returned items meet quality and safety standards.
If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, feel free to contact our support team and we’ll review it with you.
