This
agreement is made for our mutual benefit to
protect you and ourselves, as well as to
make clear the conditions of this purchase.
The
conditions of this sale are as follows:
* The Buyer
accepts the responsibility of caring for
this Cat/Kitten and providing properly for
its welfare. The Buyer agrees to follow the
Breeder’s instructions on care, housing,
diet, treatment, and health.
* The Buyer
agrees that the Cat/Kitten will always
receive prompt medical care and recognizes
the necessary need for annual
exams..*Protocol for indoor cats are
boosters every three years. Please discuss
with your vet.
* The Buyer
agrees to provide companionship for the
Cat/Kitten and will NEVER
leave the Cat/Kitten alone for more than 24
hours unless arrangements have been made
with a responsible person to provide
companionship, fresh food and water at least
once a day.
* The Buyer
agrees to provide a generous amount of
exercise for this Cat/Kitten, provide it
with toys, scratching post or tree, etc. and
to NEVER confine this
Cat/Kitten except for necessary isolation
during an illness. This Cat/Kitten is
NEVER to live in a cage.
* The Buyer
agrees that this Cat/Kitten will be kept
indoors.
* The Buyer
agrees that this Cat/Kitten will NOT
be declawed. We suggest that the Buyer keep
the Cat/Kitten’s nails clipped and will
provide a scratching post, tree or toys to
scratch on.
* The Buyer
agrees that this Kitten will be
spayed/neutered at 6 to 7
months of age for the females and
around 10 months of age for the
males. Upon the Breeder (Mellokat)
receiving the receipt from a licensed
veterinarian’s certification of altering,
the Buyer will then be provided the
registration papers. We recommend
Isoflourane gas for anesthesia.
It is by far the safest for your Kitten.
Please DO NOT use Ketamine anesthesia
because cats can have adverse reactions and
it can be fatal.
* The Buyer
is to provide a lifetime home for this
Cat/Kitten and will not be sold to another
party. The Buyer will contact the Breeder (Mellokat)
if it becomes necessary for the Buyer to
give the Cat/Kitten up and the Cat/Kitten
will NOT be sold or given to any Pet Shop,
Research Facility, Animal Shelter, or
similar institution. Mellokat will assist
the Buyer in finding a suitable home for the
cat if necessary. If a suitable home cannot
be found then the Cat/Kitten would be
returned (at Buyer’s expense) to the Breeder
(Mellokat). The Breeder has the right to
refuse to allow the return of a sick or
infectious Cat/Kitten until the Cat/Kitten
is well at the Buyer’s expense. A receipt of
health from a licensed veterinarian would be
given to the Breeder before returning the
Cat/Kitten.
* If there
are other pets in the household, the Breeder
suggest that the Buyer isolate the new
Kitten from their other pets for a minimum
of one week. New Kittens may show signs of
stress including but not limited to,
sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, diarrhea
and/or constipation. These effects can be
minimized by feeding the identical food as
served by the Breeder, offering bottled or
distilled water and overall reducing stress
during the adjustment time. If food is to be
switched to another good quality food,
gradually add the new food over a 7-10 day
period.
* You must
follow the health record supplied by
Mellokat of vaccinations that were given to
your kitten and NOT allow your veterinarian
to give another distemper vaccine until 3 –
4 weeks after the last vaccine that was
given by Mellokat. ***Note: We have had
veterinarians that disregard our vaccination
record and have put the kittens health in
jeopardy. We do not recommend FeLV or FIP
vaccinations.
* The Buyer
is asked to please send photos of the
Cat/Kitten to Mellokat at the ages of six
months, nine months, and one year and every
year thereafter. The Buyer should also
enclose a brief note describing the health
and temperament of the Cat/Kitten. This
clause is of great assistance to Mellokat in
evaluating its breeding program.
Health Guarantee
* The Kitten
has had all Distemper vaccinations and has
been checked by our veterinarian and is in
good health.
* The
Breeder guarantees that the Breeder’s
cattery is FeLV/FIV negative and at the time
of sale, the Kitten is free from any
disease.
* In order
to qualify for this guarantee the Kitten
must be examined by a licensed veterinarian
within 48 hours (except weekends). If the
vet finds that the Kitten is ill within this
time the Kitten will be returned for a full
refund. Under no circumstance will the
Breeder be responsible for payment of any
medical treatment provided to the Cat/Kitten
by the Buyer. The Breeder warrants that this
Kitten is genetically sound and will replace
the Cat/Kitten with another of equal value
or half of the original sale price if this
kitten dies within one year of the purchase
date from a genetic defect. The defect has
to be evidenced in an autopsy report from a
licensed veterinarian and presented to
Breeder (Mellokat).
I am in
full agreement and agree to abide by the
terms and conditions of this sales contract.
