Human traffickers in our real world use a varriety of tricks to create fig leaves of legality. They'd do the same in a world like this.
It probably depends on where the Elf Kittens were designed, or where some of them were born. TransHuman Space has some really horrifying polities, legally and culturally speaking (as in, you're writing like the Elf Kittens are illegal in general, whereas there are a number of places in-setting where they wouldn't be).
