This agreement between Julieann Wright (StarDusted Bengals) and (Buyer).

1.) Buyer agrees and binds him/herself to take good and reasonable care of this cat/kitten so as to provide food, shelter, correct routine and accident related medical care, exercise and affection. It is agreed that this animal will not be allowed outside without supervision, and to not declaw cat. Abuse, neglect or lack of adequate care will result in Buyer relinquishing cat/kitten to breeder unconditionally with no compensation.

Buyer agrees to never sell, rent, loan or give away kitten/cat. If a need for re-homing should arise, buyer agrees to contact StarDusted Bengals first so that StarDusted Bengals may help to rehome the kitten/cat.

This kitten/cat will not be rehomed with out the prior notification of StarDusted Bengals.

2.) Guarantee is null and void if kitten has been allowed out unsupervised. Buyer will leave with health record, vaccination records, food the kitten is presently eating and a few toys (it is the responsibility of the new owner to supervise with all toys). Pedigree and registration papers will be sent before or with said kitten/cat once veterinary proof of neuter had been provided to StarDusted Bengals. All veterinary costs and transportation costs to and from the buyer will be the responsibility of the owner and not StarDusted Bengals.
 
3.A) Said kitten/cat is in good health. Kittens are not guaranteed against accidental death or injury at any time after sale. Please isolate any new addition to a multi-cat household for a period of not less then 3 days (14 days is recommended). Please have this kitten examined by your veterinarian 72 hours from purchase date, so you are both confident that the kitten is completely healthy. Breeder cannot be responsible for contagious diseases the kitten is exposed to during shipping that are not evident during the initial guarantee period. No refunds will be given after 72 hours. If the kitten/cat goes into a multi-cat family, it is the responsibility of the buyer to have complete blood profiles done including FIP (corona titer), FIV & FeLuk testing done and sent to seller, before kitten can be returned. The cost of this testing will be at buyer's expense. Kittens are not guaranteed to be hypo allergenic - please test for allergies before getting a kitten if you are unsure.

3.B) This cat/kitten cannot be guaranteed to be free from Feline Enteric Corona Virus (FeCV). It is estimated by a research physician at the University of Missouri Veterinary Teaching Hospital that 93.7% of all cats have contracted Feline Enteric Corona Virus. FeCV can, on rare occasions, ?mutate? and cause the fatal disease Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). The effectiveness of the FIP vaccine is still controversial. Many researchers and veterinarians believe it can create enough stress on the feline immune system to actually cause the disease, others believe that it is completely ineffective. Although research is continuing, at this time no one knows exactly why this disease occurs, or how to completely prevent it. Therefore, this entire health guarantee is null and void if the FIP vaccine is administered to this cat/kitten. Once again, the breeder cannot guarantee that this cat/kitten will never contract this disease. No breeder can. However, should this cat/kitten die from FIP within one year of living in its new home, breeder will replace the cat/kitten with one of breeders? choosing under the following conditions:
 a) Complete necropsy, histopathology and microscopic examination of tissue by a trained pathologist must be performed.
 b) Written and signed necropsy report must be received by the breeder.
 c) If you have a multi-cat household, two Corona Virus Titers, six (6) weeks apart must be performed on the remaining cats (this is a simple blood test, sent via U.S. express mail).
StarDusted Bengals does everything possible to prevent this disease from occurring. For more information on this disease, please visit these websites: www.orionfoundation.com  and/or www.dr-addie.com


4) This cat/kitten is guaranteed for a period of 2 years (from the date of purchase) against death from any hereditary or genetic illness.

In the event that this kitten is found to have a congenital defect or genetic disease that results in:

a.) If euthanasia is considered to be necessary or imminent, a replacement kitten will be given. NO KITTEN OR CAT IS TO BE EUTHANISED WITHOUT THE PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE BREEDER, EXCEPT IN THE CASE WHERE A LICENSED VETERINARIAN CONSIDERS IT THE ONLY HUMANE ALTERNATIVE, OR THE GUARANTEE IS VOID. An autopsy is required to confirm a medical diagnosis in this case.

b.) If a pet is diagnosed with a minor imperfection (not known at time of sale) that requires no treatment and does not interfere with the normal function and purpose of the cat as an active pet, then no credit will be given.

c.) Where a replacement is requested and where euthanasia is necessary, buyer agrees to grant full access to all veterinary records to Breeder. Veterinary records include copies of actual visit cards to veterinarians stating vaccinations, injuries, test results, etc. during the period the kitten is owned by the Buyer. No replacement will be given for any condition or defect caused by accident, neglect or malnutrition. Buyer is responsible to provide immediate veterinary care to any kitten/cat showing signs of illness or distress. Failure to do so will render this guarantee null and void.

d.) No replacement or refund will be given for any congenital defect or disease that was made known to the buyer by the seller BEFORE final purchase of the cat/kitten. In this case the buyer has the option to either purchase kitten "as is" or not purchase the cat/kitten at all.

BREEDER ASSUMES NO LIABILITY FOR VETERINARY COSTS OR OTHER EXPENSES INCURRED BY THE OWNER. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BREEDERS LIABILITY CAN NEVER EXCEED WHAT IS EXPRESSED IN THIS GUARANTEE AND AGREEMENT AND IS LIMITED TO PHYSICAL REPLACEMENT OF KITTENS/CATS.

5.) Should it become necessary for any reason to part with this kitten/cat, this contract becomes null & void. This contract is NOT transferable.

6.) Replacement kittens to be of same quality as originally purchased unless other arrangements are made between the two parties. Replacement kittens/cats to be granted within 12 months from purchase date. Replacement kittens/cats will only be given granted that the kitten it is replacing has been returned alive, and proof of veterinary analysis of condition is given. If kitten/cat to be replaced is deceased, an autopsy at the expense of the buyer must be done and results given to StarDusted Bengals.

7.) No habit is guaranteed for or against. Any habit, good or bad, can be made or broken, so we can not guarantee this.

8.) All shipping costs are the responsibility of the purchaser. If said kitten/cat is hand delivered, we ask to view your photo id to ensure that the correct person collects the said kitten/cat.
