4) Said kitten/cat is in good health and is guaranteed free from communicable diseases for a
period of 72 hours from the date of sale. Kittens are not guaranteed against accidental death or
injury at any time after sale. It is considered common cattery practice and good animal
husbandry to isolate any new addition to a multi-cat household for a period of time. Please have
this kitten examined by your veterinarian as soon as possible so you are both confident that the
kitten is completely healthy. If the kitten is found deficient in any way it can be returned to the
Breeder within 5 days for a) a full refund, b) treatment for the deficiency, or c) a replacement
kitten of equal quality and value. Breeder can not be responsible for contagious diseases the
kitten is exposed to during shipping that are not evident during the initial guarantee period.
5) Said kitten/cat is further guaranteed to be free from congenital defects or genetic diseases for
a period of two years from date of sale. In the event that this kitten is found to have a congenital
defect or genetic disease that will interfere with its' intended purpose (showing or breeding):
a) it can be returned to the breeder for a replacement of equal quality (breeder/show)
b) if the owner wishes to keep the kitten as a pet, and Breeder does not wish it back, it can be
kept by the owner, and upon proof of spay/neuter a credit will be issued to reduce the price of the
cat/kitten to 50% of average pet price (pet price to be determined based on the original value of
the kitten and the defect involved) This credit can be used towards another kitten of equal or
better value.
c) if euthanasia is considered to be necessary or imminent, a replacement kitten will be given.
NO KITTEN OR CAT IS TO BE EUTHANISED WITHOUT THE PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE
BREEDER, EXCEPT IN THE CASE WHERE A VETERINARIAN CONSIDERS IT THE ONLY HUMANE
ALTERNATIVE, OR THE GUARANTEE IS VOID.
d) if a cat/kitten is diagnosed with a minor imperfection (not known at time of sale) that requires
no treatment and does not interfere with the normal function and purpose of the cat, then no
credit will be given.
e) in the case of breeding and show quality animals where a defect or disease interferes with
the intended purpose of the cat the options a) or b) apply. In the case of lockets or tail faults that
become evident as the kitten matures, the breeder has the right to ask for the return of the kitten
and a replacement given if the owner does not wish to keep the kitten as a pet. No refund or
replacement will be given for any cat that has been bred or produced a litter, purebred or
otherwise unless the said defect involves congenital defects of the kittens determined by test
breedings to more than one mate, or a condition in the parent that is only discovered after the
birth of a litter(s) and could result in liability on the part of the buyer with respect to the kittens
sold that may also carry the said defect.
BREEDER ASSUMES NO LIABILITY FOR VETERINARY COSTS OR OTHER EXPENSES INCURRED
BY THE OWNER. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BREEDERS LIABILITY CAN NEVER EXCEED
WHAT IS EXPRESSED IN THIS GUARANTEE AND AGREEMENT AND IS LIMITED TO PHYSICAL
REPLACEMENT OF KITTENS/CATS. NO REFUNDS ARE GIVEN AFTER 5 DAYS.

grant full access to all veterinary records to Breeder. Veterinary records include copies of actual
visit cards to veterinarians stating vaccinations, injuries, test results, etc. during the period the
kitten is owned by the Buyer. No refund or replacement will be given for any condition or defect
caused by accident, neglect or malnutrition. Buyer is responsible to provide immediate veterinary
care to any kitten/cat showing signs of illness or distress. Failure to do so will render this
guarantee null and void.
6) If a BREEDING/SHOW quality animal, it is agreed that no kittens from said cat will be sold to
pet dealers, pet shops or their agents. No male kittens from said cat will be sold without
restricted registrations (to be altered) unless otherwise agreed to with Breeder in writing. If
purchased cat/kitten is a whole male, it is agreed that he will not be leased or sent away from his
home to provide stud service or be bred to any outside females not fully tested for feline
infectious diseases. This male must be neutered when Buyer is finished using him for his
personal use for breeding and may not be sold to another party as a breeding animal.
7) Should it become necessary for any reason to part with this kitten/cat, the buyer agrees to give
the Breeder first opportunity to repurchase at a price not higher than that offered to any other
party. Buyer may at his option neuter/spay this cat and not offer him back to Breeder.
8) If a kitten is designated as a SHOW/BREEDING potential animal and before it is used for
breeding exhibits any major illness or hereditary defect that should eliminate it from a responsible
breeding program, the Breeder retains the right to provide a replacement kitten upon proof of
spay/neuter of affected kitten/cat. If a kitten is designated as a SHOW or BREEDING potential this
means the kitten has been determined by the Breeder to possess qualities or pedigree above and
beyond the definition of a PET. This animal is purebred, register able and is free from all
disqualifying faults at the time of sale. A SHOW KITTEN IS GUARANTEED to be able to obtain a
minimum of a CHAMPIONSHIP Title at either CCA or TICA shows, with the following conditions:
a) kitten MUST be shown as a kitten (4 - 9 months) in at least 4 separate shows (2 weekends).
b) must be shown between 9 - 12 months of age in at least 4 separate shows (2 weekends). If
the cat does not obtain the championship within a reasonable time of fulfilling the above
requirements: Breeder is to be given option to show and obtain the title on behalf of the Buyer.
If title is still unobtainable, Breeder agrees to replace the cat upon return of original cat to breeder
with another SHOW potential kitten. Other arrangements might also include credit the difference
between a show quality and BREEDER quality kitten if Buyer has used cat in a breeding program,
or provide credit for 50% towards the purchase of a new SHOW quality kitten, or upon proof of
spay/neuter of said kitten to grant a credit equal to the price of a replacement show quality kitten
less l/2 the value of a pet kitten - above to be discussed and determined between Buyer and
Breeder.

opportunity. It is agreed that females will not be bred earlier than l0 months of age and preferably
not earlier than one year. Females WILL be bred earlier than l8 months of age and no later than
their third heat cycle. Females will not be bred more often than twice per year for a spacing of at
