HEALTH GUARANTEE POLICY
Health Guarantee Policy
All Kittens sold come with a health guarantee. Within 48 hours of purchasing your new Kittens, you must take him/her to a licensed veterinarian for an examination. If the veterinarian determines, within 48 hours of purchasing that your Kitten is clinically ill or has died from an injury sustained or illness likely to have been contracted on or before the date of purchasing and delivery, you have the following options:
-Return the cat for a complete refund
-Return the cat for a replacement cat of equal value
-Retain the cat and receive reimbursement for reasonable veterinary fees, not exceeding the adoption price
These options do not apply where an owner, who has provided a health certificate issued by a veterinarian, discloses in writing at the time of sale the health problem for which the adoptee later seeks to return the cat. If, within 30 days of purchasing, a licensed veterinarian determines that your cat has a congenital or hereditary defect that adversely affects the animal’s health or that your cat died from a congenital or hereditary defect, you have the same option as outlined above. You must notify the owner of the examining veterinarian’s name, address & phone number within 2 days of the vet’s certification of your cats’ illness. Failure to notify the owner within 2 business days will result in forfeiture of rights.
By purchasing Kittens from us, you agree to the following:
The Kitten will be taken to the vet promptly. You should make sure that he/she is healthy and doesn’t need a vet’s attention. We request that this initial visit be within 48 hours of the kitten arrival. This is to ensure that there aren’t problems that have arisen from shipping, and also so that your veterinarian is familiar with your kitten if a situation arises
We are not responsible for a Kittens exposure to diseases after they have left our possession. You should be careful where you take your Kitten and who handles it as well. The Kitten should not be exposed to previously infested disease areas or to places where a high level of exposure to diseases is possible. Treat him/her as if she is a new-born baby.
Validation of the guarantee requires examination of your Kittens
by the vet of your choice and at your expense within 48 Hours of their arrival. This examination is expected to confirm that your Kitten was healthy upon arrival. If the Kitten is showing any sign of illness, it should be taken to the vet immediately.
Your Kitten, if shipped, has been through a vet check and has received a health certificate. He/she has been through at least his first shots and usually a series of shots before he/she has been delivered to you. He has also been de-wormed, and worming is an ongoing process that will need to be continued once the Kitten is in your care. Your Kitten will also need follow up shots. It is very important that you follow up with shots and de-worming.
If the Kitten has a vet diagnosed, congenital or hereditary defect, that is a life-threatening condition, bring the breeder a vet signed statement of the defect, and it will be replaced with the first available Kitten with the same value as soon as possible. The original Kitten must be returned before a new Kitten can be delivered.
This guarantee is null and void if the Kitten is sold to a third party, and if normal precautions aren’t taken. We work closely with our vets to ensure the health of our cats. They have been administered all of the shots and de-wormings that are indicated on our shot records. Our shots are administered by the breeder under the vet-recommended immunization program. We will only indicate the shots that your cat has had. Please be aware that they have had these shots, and continue to administer shots as recommended by your veterinarian. Giving too many immunizations and ignoring the immunizations that have been given can also be harmful to your cat health.
