Policies at Las Vegas Ragdoll
Our Kitten Contract and Health Guarantee
Kittens will not be released until they are 12 weeks old.
Terms of Sale
By signing this Contract, Adopter and Breeder agree to the following:
No Kitten will be allowed to be picked up from us without a kitten carrier. We will have carriers here at our home for your purchase for 50.00 if you do not come with one. We are only doing this for the safety of you and the kitten. We would hate for the kitten to be so scared in the car that they caused an accident. The kittens feel much safer in a carrier and this will ensure your kitten gets to your home safe and sound!!
BREEDER:
Kitten is healthy to the best of the breeder’s knowledge, has had all of the age appropriate vaccinations and wormings and is free of all internal and external parasites as confirmed by a licensed veterinarian at the time of adoption.
Breeder will provide a pet record from a licensed veterinarian listing all vaccinations, wormings, treatments (if any), and the dates thus far.
The kitten’s mother and father were negative for feline leukemia as a kitten and have not been exposed to any outside or unknown cats. The kitten’s mother and father are negative/negative for the two known HCM (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) genes
The breeder guarantees for ONE YEAR that if a fatal defect occurs as a result of genetic or congenital defect, the breeder will either replace the kitten (less shipping charges) or refund the price of the kitten (less any veterinary expenses). A histopathology/necropsy report (at buyer’s expense) from a licensed, board certified veterinarian is absolutely required.
Viral diseases (including Feline Infectious Peritonitis or FIP), parasites, or bacterial infections are not covered by this health guarantee.
Breeder does not warranty the kitten/cat from any adverse reactions against future vaccinations or any other procedures/surgery performed on the kitten/cat including spay/neuter.
The kitten(s) will be registered with The International Cat Association (TICA) as a breeding or non-breeding kitten, depending on agreement between breeder and buyer.
ADOPTER:
These are strictly indoor cats only. DO NOT ever expose to unknown outdoor cats or other animals. Allowing your kitten outdoors where it may be exposed to diseases, fleas, ticks and parasites, voids the health guarantee.
Adopter is responsible for ALL veterinary expenses incurred after acquiring kitten(s).
Adopter will ensure that the kitten has the recommended routine vaccinations and wormings to maintain the health of the kitten.
Kittens should only be vaccinated with “killed virus” or “modified live virus” vaccines and NOT “LIVE VIRUS” VACCINES. Adopter agrees that the kitten will NOT BE VACCINATED with the feline leukemia or FVRCP and a RABIES vaccination at the same time, as a potentially life-threatening reaction may occur and the health guarantee will be revoked.
Written proof of the spay/neuter from your vet is required if you want registration papers for your kitten(s).
If the breeder does not receive proof of the spay/neuter prior to the kitten reaching 7 months of age, TICA registration will be destroyed and the one year health guarantee will be revoked.
It is your choice whether or not you want to have your kitten tested for feline leukemia, and this is at your expense.
Adopter is responsible for allergies, landlord issues, housetraining, and behavior and for understanding the information in the kitten papers you are given: Bringing Home Your New Ragdoll Kitten
If you should no longer be able to keep your kitten, we will work with you to find a suitable home. No refunds will be issued if you are not able to keep your kitten. Kitten is not to be sold under any circumstances. If kitten is found to have been sold or given away, the health guarantee is void and not transferrable.
Breeding of an unauthorized Mystic Ragdolls Ragdoll without breeding rights is strictly prohibited. Breeder may elect to proceed with legal action if it is discovered that the adopter is breeding a Mystic Ragdolls Ragdoll. All legal proceedings will take place within the county and state of the breeder’s residence.
If adopter violates any of the terms of this contract, breeder has the right to recover the kitten(s) and adopter will comply by returning kitten(s) to breeder with NO REFUND REIMBURSEMENT.
