  1. The seller is to have completed all of the appropriate required vaccinations and de-worming prior to shipping or release of the kitten to the seller. All Romanov Dynasty Cattery cats have been tested for and found to Not have FELV or the FIV Viruses. Due to the possible side effects to certain vaccines that may pose as a health risk to our kittens we do not immunize for FIP (feline infectious peritonitis), Feline Leukemia (FELV), Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), Ringworm, Giardia and Chlamydia and if the buyer choices to vaccinate against any of these the seller does not warranty kitten against any adverse reactions to future vaccinations.
  2. Kittens are guaranteed against congenital defects up until one year of age.

Buyer is bound by all conditions set forth in this contract
  4. Buyer understands that hypoallergenic qualities of the Siberians are not a guaranty and have not been proven scientifically. Siberians have a lower-than-average occurrence of FelD1 (allergen) in their saliva which makes them less allergic.
  5. In the event the buyer(s) can no longer care for this cat/kitten for any reason it is suggested that the cat/kitten be returned to the breeder if breeder agrees.

If the breeder does agree to accept the cat/kitten back the cat/kitten must be examined and tested by a licensed veterinarian and all medical records along with CFA papers will be transferred back to the breeder (ownership will automatically revert back to the breeder if cat/kitten is returned for any reason). If for any reason the breeder cannot take back the cat/kitten we will be most helpful in finding the cat/kitten a new forever home!
