Whereby it is agreed as follows:

That the Breeder will sell and the Purchaser will buy the Kitten detailed above at the price of           

The Purchaser is satisfied with the observed health status of the Kitten at the time of sale.

The Kitten is registered in the breeders name. This needs to be sent to the address on the back of the
registration document. This will be forwarded to the Purchaser when it is received from TICA. If the Purchaser wishes to rehome the Kitten for any reason, the Breeder maintains first refusal for the life of the Kitten. First refusal means that the Purchaser must offer the Kitten to the Breeder first. The Kitten shall not be sold, given, willed or donated to any pet shop, establishment or any other person without the Breeder’s prior written consent. Permission to transfer ownsership is not guaranteed and will only be given to specific suitable third parties. Under no circumstances shall the Kitten/Cat ever be turned over to a pet shop, animal shelter, humane society, cat rescue program, research facility, or any and all similar types of facilities engaged in the business of animals, for whatever reasons or purposes. The Purchaser is to keep the Kitten as an indoor, household pet only in appropriate conditions for it’s health and welfare. The Kitten is to be fed an appropriate diet for it’s age and condition. The Purchaser promises to never have the Kitten declawed. Purchaser agrees to take the kitten to a qualified veterinarian within 72 hours of receiving the kitten from the breeder. Failure to take the kitten to a qualified veterinarian within this time frame will constitute a breach of contract, releasing Willetteragdol from any and all financial responsibilities for said kitten and voiding the warranty offered by Willetteragdol. The Purchaser understands that if there is a breach to any of the terms of this agreement, or if the Kitten is neglected, maltreated, or failing to receive adequate medical care, the Purchaser is to immediately surrender the Kitten to the Breeder unconditionally and without financial restitution or compensation. If it becomes necessary to take legal action to repossess the Kitten, all travel and necessary legal expenses shall be the sole responsibility of the Purchaser. If the Kitten is sold as having show potential, the Breeder cannot guarantee success in competition. The Kitten shall be kept as an indoor only cat. This is due to the trusting nature of these cats, and the fact that they are unable to defend themselves against attack from other animals sufficiently. The Kitten shall not be taken outside unless necessary, and only in an appropriate travel carrier. The Kitten will never be taken outside to play, or walk on a leash or in a carriage. These cats are valuable and unfortunately, it is not unknown for them to be stolen. The Breeder insures that the Kitten has been vaccinated and examined by a qualified veterinarian and is in full health to the best of the Breeder’s knowledge. It is the Purchaser’s responsibility to continue to cover the full cost of the Kitten and to ensure that the Kitten is able to receive the best veterinary care if necessary in the future.The Breeder’s responsibility is limited to a replacement kitten only. No cash refunds are given. Please refer to our Health Guarantee which is included and forms part of this agreement.

 

Health Guarantee

Congenital/Hereditary Defects

If the Kitten should die of a congenital defect (not a disease or accident) within the first twelve months of it’s life, the Breeder will replace the Kitten free of charge with a kitten of comparable quality and value when available and upon the production by the Purchaser of a post-mortem documentissued by a veterinarian identifying the cause of death. The Breeder reserves the right to have the post-mortem examination confirmed by their veterinarian.

​

General Health

The Breeder guarantees that the Kitten is free of Feline Leukemia Virus and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus at the time of sale. The Breeder guarantees that the Kitten has been wormed, vaccinated and examined by a qualified veterinarian and found to be in good health at the time of sale. 

 

This health guarantee is valid for 72 hours after purchase, providing that there has been no other contact with any cats or animals and that the Kitten has not had access to the outdoors during this time. The health guarantee is also reliant on the Kitten being checked by a qualified veterinarian who documents that the Kitten is not in good health. If illness occurs within 72 hours of purchase, the Purchaser will return the Kitten to the Breeder within 24 hours. Subject to the Breeder’s veterinarian assessing the Kitten’s welfare and health status and verifying the absence of accidental poisoning or physical damage to the Kitten, the Breeder will replace the Kitten free of charge with a kitten of comparable quality and value as soon as one is available. Please note that although we at Willetteragdol test for genetic diseases, certain illnesses such as FIP can lie dormant and be brought out by extreme stress. After the 72 hour window stated above, Willetteragdol will not be held responsible for any non-genetic illnesses and will not be required to refund any monies to the Purchaser or be required to replace the Kitten. 

 

The Breeder reserves the right to cancel the sale of a kitten at any time. If a sale is cancelled by The Breeder prior to the Purchaser receiving the kitten, all monies paid to the Breeder will be refunded to The Purchaser. If the sale of a kitten is cancelled by The Purchaser prior to The Purchaser receiving the kitten, all monies will be refunded by The Breeder, minus the $200 non-refundable deposit. Please note: once the Purchaser chooses a kitten, the deposit becomes non-refundable and non-transferable. Once the Breeder notifies the Purchaser that the kitten is ready to be picked up, The Purchaser must arrange to pick up the kitten within one week, unless otherwise agreed upon by The Breeder. If The Purchaser fails to pick up the kitten during the allotted time or make alternate arrangements with The Breeder, The Breeder will assume that The Purchaser wishes to cancel the sale. The sale will therefore be cancelled and all monies, minus the $300 non-deposit will be returned to The Purchaser.

We are always available for our parents who we consider our extended family, even long after we stop breeding.
