SELLER'S HEALTH GUARANTEE & RESPONSIBILITIES:
The Seller guarantees that, at the time of purchase, the above cat/kitten is judged to be in good health and is negative for FeLV(Feline Leukemia), FIV (Feline Aids), and HCM (Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy) at the time of pickup/delivery/shipping. However, FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) cannot be guaranteed against due to the lack of available test, but FIP is covered under the 1 year health guarantee.

The buyer must take the cat/kitten to a Veterinarian within 72 hours for a complete examination if they want the 72 hour Health Guarantee. If the cat/kitten is found to have a serious medical problem, buyer may return the kitten within 72 hours for replacement. This request must be in writing and MUST be accompanied by a written letter from the examining licensed veterinarian which states the medical problem and why the cat/kitten's health is in question. Seller does not guarantee against anything treatable, including Upper Respiratory Infections, as it is commom for cats/kittens to become susceptible to URI's during transitioning periods, such as changing homes. The Seller agrees to replace cat/kitten with one of equal quality when one comes available. The Buyer is responsible for all shipping, vet, and/or ANY other costs associated with this cat/kitten once kitten leaves the seller's home.

If the cat/kitten above dies within one year from the date of birth due to any congenital or hereditary defect, or if a breeder is not able to be bred within 2.5 years, the Breeder agrees to replace the cat/kitten with the next available cat/kitten of like quality, NO monies will be refunded. To determine if the cat/kitten's death was in fact caused by a congenital or hereditary defect and in order to receive replacement, the Seller must receive proof of the defect in the form of a complete necropsy report, completed and signed by a licensed veterinarian at the Buyers expense. Seller must also receive the full health and vaccination record of the kitten.

Seller agrees to provide vaccination record, microchip papers (if micro-chipped), and TICA registration/blue slip at time of delivery or ASAP if it has not been received from TICA yet.

 Buyer agrees that under NO circumstance will this cat/kitten be allowed to
roam outdoors.

Buyer agrees that this cat/kitten will not be declawed unless all other measures have been taken, tried, and failed and this is the last resort. Declawing is the amputation of the tips of their toes, not just the toe nails, and it is inhumane!
