This cat will be groomed regularly and kept in a homelike environment and not be subjected to unnecessary confinements.

Due to the social nature of the Maine Coon Cat the purchaser agrees to provide frequent and loving attention. This cat will not be outdoors without enclosure. This cat will not be denied needed veterinary attention. If, at any time, this kitten/cat is found to be malnourished, abused or neglected, purchaser will surrender said kitten to breeder unconditionally, with no refund to be made by the breeder. This cat will not be declawed.
If the purchaser is unable to keep this cat, the breeder will be informed immediately. The breeder will then assist the purchaser to find a new home for this cat/kitten. However, the breeder will be given first opportunity to purchase back the animal. No cat/kitten from this cattery may be sold or given to an animal shelter, sold or given to a pet store, abandoned, or sold or given to a laboratory.
HEALTH GUARANTEE Our basic health guarantee extends through ………………………,one week, to include general health, and freedom from internal and external parasites. This kitten/cat is guaranteed to be in good health at time of sale and will be checked thoroughly by a licenced veterinarian (and a state vet for breeding cats overseas) in Thunder Bay, ON, Canada before shipping. Standard inoculations and dewormers have been administered at 4 and 8 weeks (intranasal), and around 3 months of age. A stool sample has been performed (fecal negative) before transport. We guarantee this kitten to be Felv/Fiv negative at time of sale.
TO QUALIFY FOR THIS HEALTH GUARANTEE YOU MUST HAVE THE KITTEN EXAMINED BY YOUR OWN VETERINARIAN WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PURCHASE (72 HOURS FOR SALE ON A FRIDAY or FOR SALE OVERSEAS) AND ADVISE THE BREEDER OF THE RESULTS OF SUCH EXAMINATION. CATS/KITTENS SOLD TO A MULTICAT HOUSEHOLD MUST BE ISOLATED FOR A PERIOD OF 21 DAYS.
PLEASE NOTE: If this kitten is diagnosed with an illness and the veterinarian feels the condition was present prior to the sale, the breeder should be contacted prior to any treatment beginning. If the breeder cannot be reached, action should be taken on the advice of the vet of the purchaser. The breeder will (upon receipt of a statement from the examining veterinarian that the illness was present prior to sale) pay the cost of the medical treatment (up to $ 100.-) Veterinary fees will only be refunded with the presentation of a letter from the veterinarian and the receipts itemizing the fees. The letter must be signed by the vet, on the veterinarian's letterhead and must fully describe the cat's condition and the treatment. If the veterinary costs exceed $ 100 and the purchaser is not willing to pay the difference, the cat will be returned to the breeder at purchaser's cost. A replacement kitten will be given as soon as available. The replacement is for the cat only. Breeder will not be liable for shipping costs. Please note that Felv/Fiv vaccination automatically voids our health guarantee. If the kitten/cat has any difficulties or illness, we request to be notified immediately.
