Furry Purrs Contract and Health Guarantee

This cat is sold as an indoor cat, and shall never be caged or tethered outside unattended, nor allowed to roam freely outside. This kitten has received its first inoculations and routine de-worming as indicated on the enclosed health record, and is believed by the breeder to be in good health. To activate this health guarantee:

1. the buyer must have the kitten examined by his/her own veterinarian within 72 hours of acquisition and set up a schedule of further vaccines and spay/neuter as prescribed by the vet.

2. If seller has other cats, this kitten MUST be isolated until vet clearance is obtained!

If the buyer's veterinarian finds the animal in over all unsatisfactory upon initial examination within 72 hours of the date of acquisition of the animal, we (the breeders) will either refund the purchase price (excluding shipping or delivery) or replace the animal with one of similar over all quality, when available ONLY if the animal is returned immediately to the breeder along with the supporting vet documentation AND in the case where there are other cats, the kitten was kept in isolation per the breeder’s instructions. Prior to any refund or replacement animal being made, all papers issued with this animal must be returned, properly signed, transferring ownership back to the seller. After 72 hours, the cat is totally your responsibility. Seller is not responsible for vet bills or testing costs. If kitten is not returned within 72 hours it is understood that the buyer is pleased with the kitten. If this kitten dies by the age of one year old due to a congenital or hereditary defect, it will be replaced with a kitten of equal value when one becomes available once a necropsy report is received and signed by a licensed Veterinarian. We reserve the right to make positive ID of the animal. NO CASH REFUNDS. **** IF THERE IS A PROBLEM, DO NOT PROCEDE UNLESS YOU ARE MAKING A DECISION TO KEEP THIS ANIMAL! WE DO NOT REIMBURSE VET BILLS. PLEASE DO NOT THINK YOU OR YOUR FAMILY ARE TOO ATTACHED THIS SOON TO RETURN AN UNFIT KITTEN. It is not our intentions to cause you unexpected vet bills or heartbreak! If the buyer's veterinarian finds the animal in unsatisfactory but non-life threatening condition and the buyer makes a choice to keep the pet anyway, the breeder and the buyer may negotiate and then commit to writing, an agreement acceptable to both parties involved. If the animal is found to have a cold, or other treatable infectious diseases, we can provide the buyer with the means to obtain medicines needed to treat the problem should you opt to do so. RETURNING FOR NON-HEALTH REASONS: If the buyer wishes to return the kitten within 3 days of purchase for non-health reasons, he may return the kitten at his own cost. The buyer must obtain a vet’s health certificate at his own expense. Once the kitten leaves our residence, there is no way of us knowing what this kitten/cat has been exposed to in the new environment, and now, we would need to isolate and vet test for ringworm or other environmentally-based issues. The ringworm test is a 10 day test. Therefore your refund (less your initial deposit) will be issued after the skin culture test comes back. We keep the deposit to offset the vet bill being incurred and the kitten has now lost opportunity to go to a permanent home. NO CASH REFUNDS after 72 hours! Prior to any replacement animal being made, all papers issued with this animal must be returned, properly signed, transferring ownership back to the seller. If you cannot keep the kitten, we WILL take it back for free or we will help you place it. In some cases, we may be able to refund you some of the money (less your initial deposit) ONCE we have re-sold the kitten, but the refund will be based on the new sale price. AVOIDING THE 1 YR HEALTH GUARANTEE:

DECLAWING: In effect you are amputating the lower part of each of their toes! Clip the nails biweekly and provided adequate scratching posts.

VACCINATING FOR FIP AND FELV: The buyer agrees not to administer the feline leukemia or FIP vaccine to kitten, understanding these vaccines may cause harm to kitten's health

Furthermore, the Buyers agree to the following terms: RESPONSIBLE DAILY CARE required, meaning you will follow the breeder's advice on care, housing, diet, treatment and health. NEVER PUNISH a cat! All you will do is create a fearful, stressed animal. A spray bottle of water is a good deterrent as well as shaking a can with pennies in it. MEDICAL CARE AS NEEDED - the kitten will always receive prompt, medical care, and will never be allowed to harbor parasites. HUMAN LOVE AND ATTENTION must be provided. Companionship for this kitten is part of your responsibilities, never leaving it alone for long periods of time without human attention. A generous amount of exercise for this kitten and toys will be provided. If caged for breeding these should be as minimal as possible. RESALE, GIFTING, LEASE PROHIBITED -The kitten will never be sold, leased or given to any pet shop, animal shelter, or research laboratory or similar facility. The breeder reserves the right of first refusal of this kitten in the case where the buyer can not keep the kitten offering the seller first refusal to have the kitten back for pickup/shipping costs only, which will be the seller’s responsibility. If seller declines, then the buyer agrees to have kitten altered immediately and will insure that this kitten is placed in a suitable, loving and clean pet home for the remainder of its lifetime. We will work with the buyer to find a new home if need be. INDOOR ONLY!! These cats are not intended to go to homes where they will be allowed to roam freely outdoors. True, all animals need fresh air. Cats can be trained to walk on a leash or harness, or for unattended times, a large enclosed pen is a good idea making certain that the top is secured against the cat climbing out or intruders getting in ABUSE: If at any time this kitten is found to be in an unfit, animal-hoarding or abusive condition, to be determined by seller, the seller reserves the legal right to remove the animal from the premises, and myself or my agent will surrender kitten and all appropriate CFA registration papers and any other papers pertaining to kitten, to the seller, or to the seller's designated agent, immediately, unconditionally and without compensation SPAY/NEUTER Most female kittens sold as pet WILL BE spayed prior to leaving. An exception would be where a breeder quality animal was sold at the last minute as a PET and an appointment could not be made for alter before departure. If the kitten was purchased as a pet and for some reason leaves here unaltered, we will not release the CFA registration papers until such time the new owner provides proof of spay/neuter. Male kittens can be neutered before leaving, or some vets think waiting until age 6-9 months is more appropriate for their development. We can do either as long as the new owner agrees to neuter and send a copy of the neuter certificate when done to us. Purchaser further agrees and guarantees that this cat WILL NOT be used for stud or breeding at any time prior to neutering or spaying. The breeder has the right to confiscate both the animal and its offspring if used without breeding rights. or, purchaser will pay seller an additional sum of $500. CAUTIONS AND ADVISEMENTS: Do NOT just turn this kitten loose in an unfamiliar environment! It is just a baby and has no idea who you are or where he is. ISOLATE in one room containing his food, water, litter and comfortable bedding! All kittens play! If your kitten is not very active, or not eating, sleeping more than you would expect, then these are good indicators that a problem is present!! ISOLATE IMMEDIATELY. DIARRHEA: Diarrhea is a symptom of an underlying problem. During times of stress, such as going to a new home, cats can exhibit temporary signs of illness which may include diarrhea and/or constipation. To help reduce the signs of stress, feed the cat / kitten identical food as was fed prior to leaving, switch to bottled water, and take reasonable measures to reduce stress. It can be brought on by a number of minor things like changing a kitten's food without acclimating it slowly or stress brought on by going to a new home, or adding a new animal to the household or traveling. Loose stool is most common soon after placement. You can use Petcillin if mild and no temperature or signs of other illness. Withhold food for 24 hours and give PLENTY of fresh water. Canned plain pumpkin or Gerber baby food sweet potatoes help! A cat can dehydrate very quickly. If diarrhea lasts for more than 24 hours or is accompanied by fever or lethargy, TAKE IT TO THE VET. UPPER RESPIRATORY INFECTION, & RUNNY EYES & TEARING STAINS: during times of stress, such as going to a new home, cats can exhibit temporary signs of illness which may include: sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes. A major cause for URI is STRESS, and of course, direct exposure to it from other cats or could be from something as innocent as air conditioning or even common household dust. It is common for extreme Persians & Himalayans to ‘tear’ (reddish eye staining) regularly. Regular wiping and proper eye care will keep the tear ducts clear and the coat underneath their eyes free of stains. A safe eye cleanser recommended by our vet is Bausch & Lomb eye contact solution for Sensitive eyes for cleaning the fur around the eyes. It is already mixed and readily available. Is the runny eye problem accompanied by sneezing??? Suspect a cold or Chlamydia, both treatable with antibiotics….see your vet! BEYOND OUR CONTROL……… FIP (feline infectious peritonitis): Many breeders now are inserting a paragraph to address FIP. This does not imply that cases of FIP are expected! This is to simply educate the buyer as well as offer coverage if it happens to occur. New information is constantly being published on this subject. FIP can be obtained by another cat or a cat may simply 'develop' the problem for a variety of reasons (low immunity, other physical problem, and stress) It is generally preceded by loose stool and sometimes fever. The cat becomes lethargic, typically with a swelling gut and there is a distant look in its eyes. Although great strides are being made for a cure, it is 99% fatal. The immune system simply flips a switch and turns against itself. Do NOT waste your money doing the corona titer tests. All those tests confirm is exposure to a corona virus…but cannot determine WHICH virus, and there are many. Do NOT use the FIP vaccine as it voids the health guarantee. There is no evidence that it does any good. If such an unfortunate event occurs within 45 days of acquisition, you will please supply a copy of the autopsy/necropsy done by the vet at the time of death and a statement to the breeder. We will then replace the kitten when one becomes available of similar quality (color, sex & markings not guaranteed) once confirmation by vet is received on the deceased pet. We reserve the option to request the body for positive ID CANCER – we are seeing way too much of this lately across the breeds and domestics! Makes me wonder about food additives or preservatives…If this happens to one of our kittens, come see us for a replacement of similar quality (color, sex & markings not guaranteed) at a reduced price. Purchaser's signature indicates full agreement with all of the above conditions, and acknowledges receipt of a copy of this contract and a copy of this cats Health/Immunization records. If the purchaser is found to have violated any of the terms of this contract, purchaser shall be liable to Sally or Ray Dockstader in the amount of the purchase price of this kitten plus cost resulting from litigating this contract. This document is a legally binding contract. The laws of the state of New York shall be controlling.
