| Purrfect Purrs Policies |
| Deposits - I will accept a $200 deposit to hold the kitten of your choice for an agreed upon amount of time. This deposit will go towards the total purchase price of your kitten. Deposits can be in the form of cash, check or money order. If, for whatever reason, you are unable to purchase the kitten you forfeit your deposit. If, for whatever reason, I am unable to sell you your kitten I will refund your deposit, or it can be placed on another kitten of your choosing. |
| Picking up your kitten - An appointment MUST be made to pick up kittens as I will not allow anyone into my home uninvited! If you will be late, or unable to come please call and let me know. When you come to pick up your kitten please bring a cat carrier and a blanket, cushion or padding to place underneath the kitten. Sometimes kittens have accidents while being transported and you should prepare for that. There is no need to bring food or water for the ride home. Feeding them will only raise your chances of the kitten having an accident while you're driving, and it could make them vomit. I accept cash ONLY at pick up. |
| Kitten Delivery - I will deliver your kitten to you free of charge if you live within 20 miles of zip code 18428. If you're not sure if you do, just go to Yahoo Maps and search from my zip code to yours to see if you are within my free delivery driving range. An appointment would be made and just as with kitten pick ups, I accept cash only when your kitten is delivered. |
| Shipping - I will ship to certain states. Please contact me to find out if your state is included. I don't believe a kitten should be on an airplane for a very long period of time. My kittens are very special to me and their well being and comfort is my top priority. If I am able to ship your kitten the cost would be $300 to cover carrier, cushion/padding, vet certificate required by airline, cost of delivering kitten to airport. I will accept payment for kitten via check or money order for kittens that will be shipped. Kitten will not be shipped until payment has cleared. |
| Health Guarantee - Kittens must be isolated from other household pets from the time you take ownership of the kitten until the required exam by a licensed veterinarian. Vet exam must be given within 2 business days of receipt of kitten. Buyer must provide me with copies of medical records on licensed veterinarian's business letterhead within 5 business days from time of exam. Failure to do so will make the health guarantee null and void. If the kitten is taken to a licensed veterinarian within 2 business days of receipt of the kitten, and it is found to have a serious health problem that will affect the life span or life enjoyment of the kitten, then I will offer an exchange for the kitten of equal quality and value as soon as a kitten of that description becomes available, or a full refund will be given to you upon receipt of the kitten. You are solely responsible for all expenses related to the return of the kitten to me and you must execute any and all necessary paperwork to convey all interest in the kitten back to me. If you accept a replacement kitten, you are solely responsible for all shipping and/or delivery expenses. If a qualified, licensed veterinarian upon examination and testing of the kitten discovers that the kitten suffers from a mild congenital defect unknown at the time of sale, which does not affect kitten's life span or quality of life, there will be no compensation or refund. Under no circumstances will I be responsible for your veterinarian costs. You will be able to return your kitten for up to one year from the date of bringing your kitten home for a replacement kitten of equal quality & value, excluding shipping and/or delivery charges, if a qualified veterinarian sends me a signed certification (on veterinarian's business letterhead) that the kitten has any fatal congenital defect that can not be treated. A detailed statement by the examining veterinarian, along with copies of all medical records, x-rays, lab work, and notes MUST accompany the signed certification and will precede the return of the kitten. This certification must state what the fatal congenital defect is, the treatment approximate cost and the origination of the problem. Arrangements for the return of the kitten must be agreed to, in writing, by me and you prior to the your sending the kitten back to me. You would be solely responsible for all delivery and/or shipping costs related to returning of the kitten. Under no circumstances will I be obligated to cover your veterinarian costs. Our cattery is free of external and internal parasites. We worm all of our kittens and cats monthly as a precaution and our breeders have all been tested for FIV/FeLV. We are free of both of those diseases. Because we know this, we don't regularly test our kittens for it because the test is invasive, expensive and unnecessary. We will, on occasion, test one kitten out of a litter for the peace of mind of our new kitten owners. |
