Sales Contract

Pet Only Sales — Effective Upon Purchase

This contract applies to pet only sales. Any breeder rights require a separate Breeder Contract agreed upon in writing. By engaging with AquaMarine Kittens, you agree to be bound by these terms.
General Terms
1

Breeder guarantees that the cat being sold is a Pedigree Ragdoll/Cherubim.

2

This cat is purchased for pet only — NO BREEDING RIGHTS. The kitten is sold already altered (spayed/neutered) prior to placement.

3

The deposit is non-refundable for any reason other than the Breeder not being able to deliver the kitten. Delivery fees are NOT included in the purchase price.

4

If the Buyer transfers the cat to another owner, the Buyer agrees to notify and receive approval from the Seller prior to the transaction.

5

This contract is legally binding and non-transferable. Any changes must be agreed upon in writing.

6

Breach of this agreement will result in cancellation of all warranties. The Breeder’s maximum liability shall be limited to the amount paid by the Buyer.

7

Breeder reserves the right to cancel this contract at any time prior to the kitten leaving the cattery. In that instance, the Buyer will be refunded 100% of their deposit.

Health & Veterinary
8

The Breeder guarantees the kitten is healthy at the time of ownership transfer. Within 72 hours of receiving the kitten, the Buyer has the option to have a vet check. If found unfit due to a congenital or hereditary disorder, Buyer may opt for:

  • (a) Return the animal and receive a refund of the purchase price within 10 business days (excluding vet costs).
  • (b) Return the animal and receive an exchange kitten of equivalent value (excluding vet costs).
⚠ After 72 hours, Breeder cannot be held accountable for FeLV, FIV, FIP, or other infections, as these can be contracted anywhere in the environment after leaving the cattery.
Health Guarantee
9

The cat has a 3-year warranty from the date of birth against specific genetic defects. The Health Guarantee covers:

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)
Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
Mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI)
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA)
Congenital Heart Defects
Portosystemic Liver Shunt
Severe Hip Dysplasia (genetic form)
Congenital Deafness
Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Severe Congenital GI Malformations
The cat also has a 1-year guarantee against FIP. A necropsy report from a licensed veterinarian is required. There will be no cash refunds under any circumstances, except at the Breeder’s discretion.
Buyer Responsibilities
10

Purchasing a kitten makes the Buyer solely responsible for the health and well-being of the kitten from the day it arrives until the last day of its life.

11

Buyer agrees to keep vaccinations current, never allow the cat to roam freely outdoors, never place the cat in a laboratory or pet shop, and never declaw the cat.

12

Purchaser will always provide a clean litter pan, fresh water, quality food, and suitable scratching posts. If the cat is found in an unsuitable environment, the Seller reserves the right to request the cat be returned with no refund.

13

We deeply care about the lifelong well-being of every kitten we place. If at any point the Buyer is considering rehoming the cat, we strongly encourage that AquaMarine Kittens be the first to be notified. We are happy to assist in finding the cat a loving new home, or we will take the cat back ourselves. Any refund or partial compensation will be assessed at the sole discretion of the Breeder. No refund is guaranteed.

Pickup & Boarding Policy
14

Kittens may leave the nursery starting at 12 weeks old and must be picked up or delivered by their 13-week birthday. After 13 weeks, a boarding fee of $15/day applies. The maximum boarding period is 30 days, after which all monies paid will be forfeited.
