At Best Friends Cattery, the health and well-being of our kittens are our highest priorities. We are committed to ethical breeding practices and responsible care, ensuring that every kitten is healthy, properly socialized, and ready for a safe transition into its new home. This Health Guarantee outlines the protections and responsibilities associated with your kitten purchase.
Every kitten from Best Friends Cattery is raised in a clean, home-based environment and receives:
Comprehensive veterinary examination prior to adoption
Age-appropriate vaccinations
Routine deworming and preventive care
Health records and documentation
We follow breeding practices aligned with recognized standards such as The International Cat Association and Cat Fanciers' Association to maintain strong genetic lines and overall kitten health.
We guarantee that your kitten is in good health at the time of delivery. Buyers are required to:
Have the kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian within 48–72 hours of receiving the kitten
Notify us immediately if any serious health issue is identified
If a licensed veterinarian confirms that the kitten has a life-threatening illness present prior to delivery, we will offer:
Replacement kitten (subject to availability), or
Partial or full refund (based on the situation and verification)
We provide a genetic health guarantee covering serious hereditary conditions for a specified period (commonly up to 6–12 months, depending on the breed).
This guarantee applies to:
Congenital or hereditary defects that significantly affect the kitten’s quality of life
Conditions verified by a licensed veterinarian
In such cases, we may offer:
Replacement kitten, or
Partial compensation, depending on circumstances
This health guarantee is valid under the following conditions:
The kitten must be examined by a licensed veterinarian within the specified time frame
The kitten must receive proper care, nutrition, and living conditions
Vaccinations and routine veterinary care must be maintained
Written veterinary documentation must be provided for any claim
This guarantee does not cover:
Minor or non-life-threatening conditions
Stress-related illnesses due to relocation
Illness caused by improper care, neglect, or accidents
Parasites or common treatable conditions (if preventable after adoption)
Allergic reactions or environmental sensitivities
To ensure the health and well-being of your kitten, buyers are responsible for:
Providing proper nutrition and a safe living environment
Scheduling regular veterinary checkups
Following vaccination and preventive care schedules
Monitoring the kitten’s health and behavior
This health guarantee applies only to the original buyer and is non-transferable.
In most cases, compensation is provided in the form of a replacement kitten rather than a cash refund, unless otherwise agreed upon.
If you have any concerns regarding your kitten’s health, please contact us immediately through our website. We are committed to working with you to ensure the best possible outcome.
