Warranty
BREEDER (Snow Cloud rag dolls) AGREES:
Breeder guarantees that each kitten has received proper care to date and has been examined by a licensed veterinarian. Health and vaccination records will be provided at the time of purchase. If a kitten is being shipped, copies of the vaccination and deworming records will be included with the shipment.
If, within 72 hours of receiving a kitten under 16 weeks old or within one week of receiving a kitten over 16 weeks old, the buyer has the kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian and the kitten is found to be at serious risk of euthanasia or death due to a congenital defect (present at birth), the buyer must notify the breeder immediately. A written statement from the examining veterinarian describing the condition must be provided, and the kitten along with its registration papers must be returned to the breeder within three (3) days of the examination. The breeder will either replace the kitten or issue a full refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping fees).
This guarantee does not cover common or treatable conditions such as parasites (worms, fleas, mites, coccidia, giardia), upper respiratory infections, or other minor illnesses. The breeder assumes no responsibility for veterinary or shipping expenses.
The breeder is not responsible if the kitten contracts any communicable disease after 72 hours of leaving the breeder’s possession.
Breeder guarantees the kitten against any congenital defect causing death or requiring euthanasia until the kitten reaches 2 years of age. If the buyer continues to feed the kitten with the recommended diet (e.g., Life’s Abundance or Royal Canin) and provides proof of continued use through autoshipping, the health guarantee will be extended to 3 years. If a qualifying congenital issue occurs, the breeder will either replace the kitten or refund the full purchase price (minus shipping and training fees). The breeder will not cover any veterinary bills.
Breeder does not guarantee color, size, eye shade, coat pattern, or temperament of any kitten.
Training Clause:
British Curl Cattery promises to provide proper early socialization and foundational litter, scratching, and handling training for each kitten, along with guidance and resources to help new owners continue training at home. However, the breeder cannot guarantee continued behavioral outcomes, as long-term success depends on the owner’s care and consistency. Please note that training is not part of the health warranty, which only covers congenital and hereditary health conditions.
BUYER AGREES:
To have the kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian within 72 hours of purchase if the kitten is under 16 weeks of age, or within 1 week of purchase if the kitten is over 16 weeks of age, to confirm the kitten’s good health.
The kitten is being purchased as a personal companion only, not for resale, and will never be sold, traded, or given to a pet shop, kitten mill, or agent thereof.
Buyer agrees not to register the kitten under any other pet registry besides those approved by British Curl Cattery.
Buyer agrees to provide annual veterinary checkups, maintain all recommended vaccinations, and ensure proper veterinary care throughout the kitten’s life.
Buyer agrees to spay or neuter their kitten between 6–12 months of age (unless otherwise agreed in writing for a breeding contract). No litters may be produced by this kitten unless a separate breeding agreement is signed. Proof of spay/neuter may be required.
Buyer agrees to provide a safe, clean, and loving indoor environment for the kitten. Ragdolls are strictly indoor cats and should never be allowed to roam freely outdoors. Proper nutrition, grooming, and enrichment must be provided in accordance with high-quality animal care standards.
The value of the kitten for the purpose of this agreement is limited to the original purchase price, excluding any costs such as shipping, training, or additional declared values.
If the buyer is ever unable or unwilling to keep their kitten for any reason, the kitten must be returned to British Curl Cattery.. The buyer agrees not to surrender the kitten to an animal shelter, rescue group, or third party without written permission from the breeder.
Buyer agrees to feed the kitten a high-quality diet (such as Royal Canin Kitten, Life’s Abundance, or a comparable premium brand). Participation in autoshipping or proof of consistent use of the recommended food may be required to maintain the health warranty.
Any refunds issued under this agreement due to a qualifying warranty claim will only be processed after a Non-Disparagement Agreement is signed by the buyer.
This agreement shall be deemed consummated in the county of Franklin, Ohio, and shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio. In the event of any legal dispute, the venue shall lie in Columbus, Ohio. Breeder shall not be responsible for any legal, veterinary, or transportation costs related to this process.
