SELLER OBLIGATIONS
1. The Seller, Kelloggs Cattery, provides a 72-hour limited health warranty that the above kitten/cat is in
good health and is free from upper respiratory infections, fleas and worms. The Seller also warranties that
the kitten is free of the feline leukemia virus (FeLV), feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), and the feline
immunodeficiency virus (FIV) at the time of purchase.

2. If the kitten described above dies within two years of the date of purchase due to a congenital or hereditary
defect, the Seller will replace the cat with a cat/kitten of similar or better quality or refund of all or part of the
purchase price, at the discretion of the Seller. To determine if the cat's death has been caused by a congenital
or hereditary defect, the Seller must receive proof of the defect in the form of a complete necropsy report,
completed by a licensed veterinarian and performed at the Buyer's expense.

3. The Seller will have completed all of the age-appropriate vaccinations, worming, and neuter/spay. A copy
of the kitten's health record will be given to the buyer at the time of purchase. If the Buyer chooses to
inoculate for feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), the warranty is invalidated.

4. If this kitten/cat is found to have been neglected by the buyer, in ill health or if the Buyer does not abide
by the terms of this contract, the Buyer will surrender said cat/kitten to Seller unconditionally.

5. The Seller will provide the Buyer the kitten's CFA (Cat Fancier's Association) pedigree registration papers
at the time of purchase or in a timely manner. The Kitten/Cat's litter will be registered with CFA, and the
Buyer may use this form to register their Kitten/Cat individually. This low cost individual registration fee is
the responsibility and the option of the Buyer, and not necessary unless the cat is to be shown.

BUYER OBLIGATIONS
1. In order to validate this warranty, the Buyer must take the kitten to a veterinarian within 72 hours, at the
Buyer's expense. The Buyer must notify the Seller of any claim under the warranty immediately. Any
necessary treatment or other expenses must be authorized by the Seller prior to treatment.

2. If the veterinarian finds any physical problems that make the kitten a poor health risk, the veterinarian
should write and sign a short note on his/her letterhead stationery, explaining his/her findings. The kitten
may be returned to the Seller within seven days for a full refund or exchange for a new kitten of similar or
better quality, if available. The Buyer will be responsible for any shipping costs.

3. The Buyer agrees to provide the cat with a clean, pleasant environment, conducive to good health and with
adequate space for exercise. At least one litter box will be provided for each cat in the household and will be
cleaned daily. The kitten/cat will not be caged unless absolutely necessary for the cats safety or health.

4. The Buyer will provide the cat with proper nutrition in the form of a premium food. We feed and
recommend Royal Canin. Fresh water will be provided daily.

5. The Buyer will provide the cat with proper veterinarian care and vaccines, and companionship. Any
significant health conditions during the cat's lifetime will be reported to the Seller.

6. The Buyer agrees the kitten/cat will live indoors only and will not let the cat roam outdoors. Letting the
kitten/cat roam outdoors is a violation of this contract.

7. The Buyer will not declaw the kitten/cat. De-clawing is a violation of this contract.

8. The Buyer will not, under any circumstances, give, sell, or lease the kitten/cat to any animal shelter,
research facility, laboratory, pet store, or other commercial or noncommercial enterprise. In the event that the
Buyer can no longer keep the kitten/cat, the Seller will be contacted immediately as first option to assist in
the placement of the animal.

LONG-TERM HEALTH CARE AND/OR LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


1. The Seller will not be held liable for any veterinary or health care costs occurring while the cat is in
possession of the Buyer, except as provided for by the above limited warranty.

2. The Seller's maximum liability to the Buyer for any and all losses, claims, damages, or liability of any
kind shall be limited to the amount paid by the Buyer to the Seller under this agreement. Any expenses for
health care requested of the Seller by the Buyer will be paid at the discretion of the Seller. If Buyer fails to
comply with any aspect of this agreement, the Buyer forfeits any rights the Buyer may otherwise have.

3. If legal proceedings become necessary, the Buyer agrees that all legal and/or court procedures take place
in the county which the seller resides.
