Any veterinarian or hospital expenses will not be covered/shared without prior approval by the Seller.
2. If the kitten described above dies within one year of the date of purchase due to a congenital or hereditary defect, the Seller will replace the cat with a cat/kitten of similar quality or refund of all or part of the purchase price, at the discretion of the Seller. To determine if the cat’s death has been caused by a congenital or hereditary defect, the Seller must receive proof in the form of a complete necropsy report, completed by a licensed veterinarian and performed at the Buyer’s expense. * Samson’s Legacy Cattery does not extend this policy to cats diagnosed with feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), feline leukemia virus (FeLV), and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV).
3. The Seller will complete all of the age-appropriate vaccinations and worming. A copy of the kitten’s vaccination record will be given to the buyer at the time of purchase. If the Buyer chooses to inoculate for feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), the warranty is invalidated.
