________________________________________________________________________________________

2. The cat/kitten has been checked by a veterinarian and to the best of the sellers knowledge is free of infectious disease, fungus and parasites.

There is no expresses or implied warranty for cats/kittens sold as pets against non-life threatening genetic or developmental abnormalities such as, but not restricted to, tail faults, undescended testicles, bite irregularities (malocclusions) or deformed toes.

Any claim of an inheritable abnormality or disease which causes the death of this cat/kitten before eight years of age, must be supported by a postmortem examination performed by a qualified veterinary pathologist.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

4. Buyers of pet quality cats/kittens and show alters, agree to have the animal neutered or spayed. In the case of kittens this must be done by seven months of age. Our cats mature early; to prevent spraying and other undesirable traits, we strongly suggest that you neuter/spay right at six months. Unaltered adult cats must be altered within 2 weeks of purchase. Proof of sterilization MUST be supplied to the seller within two weeks of the procedure being performed. Registration papers and pedigree will be provided as set out in item 1, after proof of sterilization is received.

Should the buyer fail to have the animal sterilized as agreed, the ownership of the cat will revert to the seller. Likewise, any purebred offspring of the cat shall become the property of the seller.

4.B The buyer also agrees that should they be unable to keep a kitten for any reason before it has been neutered/spayed that they must return the kitten to the seller. Likewise, all cats purchased as adults, whether altered or not, must be returned to the seller. Exceptions may only be made if acceptable arrangements are first made in writing and approved by the seller.

4.C The cat/kitten will not be declawed, nor will a tendonectomy be performed.

5. The cat/kitten will be allowed outside only in a secure roofed enclosure such as a pen or run. It may also be allowed outside supervised on a leash and collar or harness. This is for the safety of the animal, and to prevent annoyance to neighbours etc.

6. In the event that this contract is breached by the buyer, the seller shall have the right to repossess the cat/kitten without refund, and to be reimbursed for all reasonable costs of such repossession.

Return Policy

10 day trial period
A full refund will be given for any cat/kitten during this period provided the following is/has been complied with:

a) The animal is returned clean, uninjured, and free of parasites.

b) WHERE THE BUYER OWNS OTHER CATS
During the trial period the animal may not be allowed to share food or water dishes or litter pans with the resident cats. It may be allowed out with the original resident cats supervised, to prevent injury and to prevent transmission of diseases through cat bites.

Cats can be asymptomatic carriers of many upper respiratory diseases, including the ones that we vaccinate for. They can also harbor more serious diseases, such as Feline Leukemia, FIP and FIV for extended periods of time before they become ill. Kittens, and cats under stress or in poor health are more susceptible to exposure from other animals. In order to insure the continued health of our animals we must ensure that returning animals have not been exposed to diseases which are not present in our cattery.

RETURN AFTER TRIAL PERIOD OF 10 DAYS - UP TO ONE MONTH

Where the above conditions have been complied with, a deduction of $50.00 will be made to cover the cost of readvertising the cat/kitten and housing it until it can be placed in another home.

If the above conditions have not been complied with, additional charges may have to be deducted for appropriate veterinary care and test as required by our veterinarian.

RETURN OVER ONE MONTH

Refund will be decided on an individual basis.
