This cat or
kitten is to be of sound health upon arrival. It is guaranteed for a period of
72 hours if vet checked within that time or contract will be in breach. It is
recommended that the new cat be kept in quarantine during that time. If it is found to be medically deficient with
and untreatable or life threatening illness, buyer must notify the seller
immediately with a letter/fax from the examining veterinarian. Upon its return,
it will be replaced with another cat/kitten; if one is not available the buyer
will be placed first on a waiting list.
The breeder is not responsible for cats
lost or stolen after acceptance by the airline carrier. It is the
responsibility of the purchaser to file a claim in the event of loss, injury or
death of the cat.
Buyer
agrees to have Free Range Sphynx’s kittens Spayed or Neutered by 5lbs or 6 months of
age whichever comes first at buyer’s expense. Papers will not be released until
proof from your vet is provided that the cat/kitten has been sterilized. If
cat/kitten is not spayed/neutered by 5lbs or 6 months
of age, seller will enforce breach of contract for the Maximum dollar
amount. Free Range Sphynx does not give
permission to breed said cat/kitten.
Initial_____________
It is
understood that degrees in hairlessness in Sphynx vary from cat to cat and that
no feline is completely hairless. Fur on
the tail, feet and face, back of ears is common. Furthermore, it is understood that hormones
and genetics play an important role in hairlessness and that even though a
Sphynx kitten may be almost hairless when sold it is possible said kitten could
develop some hair after being neutered/spayed or as it grow older. Reasons include but not
limited
to: weather and climate, and seasonal and hormonal changes can have a bearing
on growth.
Cat/kitten will be kept as a loved member of the
family. Cat/kitten will not be caged as
a primary living arrangement, i.e. other than for transportation or
illness.
If
for reasons other than the animal’s health you cannot retain ownership of the
cat/kitten, the breeder will be given the right of first refusal as a surrender. If for any reason the buyer wishes to return or
exchange the kitten/cat for reasons other than the health of the animal, upon
receipt, replacement will be only at the discretion of the seller. Exchanges or returns will be looked into
carefully. All attempts will be made to
deliver to the buyer a healthy kitten/cat matched to your appropriate needs and
wants.
No kitten/cat
from this Cattery may be sold privately, given to an animal shelter, sold or
given to a pet store, abandoned, or sold or given to a laboratory for
experimental purposes.
Seller is not
responsible for any Vet bills incurred once kitten/cat is in the buyer’s
possession. Upon its arrival, buyer
needs to take said kitten/cat to be checked by their qualified licensed
Veterinarian, within 3 days, (72hours).
After the 72 hours covered by the health guarantee, the seller cannot be
held accountable for future diagnosis of Felv/Fiv/Fip, and any other bacterial
or viral infectious diseases, gierida, parasites, or
fungus, due to the fact that these can be contracted anywhere in the
environment after leaving the cattery, and are not a result of genetics or
breeding.
The
kitten/cat is guaranteed against congenital defects up until it’s one year
old. Should it die within this time from a congenital defect the
kitten/cat will be replaced by one of the same quality and value when next
available, only if a necropsy has been preformed and a certificate from your
vet is provided as proof of the cause of death.
Necropsy and related fees are responsibility of the buyer. No veterinary services will be reimbursed and
will always be the responsibility of the buyer.
The
kitten/cat will not be denied needed veterinary attention. If the owner is unsure whether or not the
animal is in need of medical services, a veterinarian will be contacted, the
situation explained, and the veterinarian’s advice will be acted upon. The kitten/cat will not be allowed outside.
These cats can sunburn or get hypothermia.
This
kitten/cat is not to be destroyed for any reason other than terminal illness or
injuries approved by a veterinarian.
If this
cat/kitten is going into a multi-pet household the breeder/seller will not be
responsible for any illness or vet bills that occur due to the exposure between
the cat/kitten and the resident pets.
The
kitten/cat will not be de-clawed Initial_____________. De-clawing is
an inhumane mutilation. It consists of
amputation of the first knuckle. It is comparable to the removal of a human
fingertip at the first knuckle. Weekly
nail-clippings, gentle discipline along with the availability of a scratching
post or mat will eliminate scratching problems.
Ear cleaning and baths are recommended
as needed, depending on how oily your Sphynx is. Sphynx have skin oil that if left unattended
could cause skin issues or ear infections.
The
kitten/cat will receive frequent and kind human attention. Please use logic in interacting with any
animal; gentle play makes a loving and gentle animal, as rough play can create
Monsters! The kitten will be given the
proper diet in the proper amount, and will have fresh water and clean litter
boxes available at all times.
If
the buyer having put a deposit on a kitten/cat should later change their mind
about the purchase, the deposit will not be refunded. If, however, the
kitten/cat should die before the buyer picks up his/her kitten/cat, Free Range
Sphynx will replace it with one of equal quality and value. If one is not
available, the buyer will be placed first on a waiting list. If for any reason the buyer needs to find
said kitten/cat a new home, seller has first right of refusal to receive the
kitten/cat back as a surrender. There
are no monetary refunds. This right is
not time limited, but remains in effect for the life of said kitten/cat.
If
this cat or kitten is purchased as a breeder male, purchaser agrees not to
resell this cat or kitten for stud to anyone unless approved by the seller.
If
this cat/kitten is purchased as a breeder male, purchaser agrees not to use
this cat/kitten for outside stud service, except as follows: approved by
the seller
If
this cat/kitten is purchased as a breeder female, purchaser agrees not to
resell this cat or kitten for use as a breeder to anyone unless approved by the
