6.1 Reservation Fee
A non-refundable reservation fee is required to initiate the adoption process and secure the Buyer’s chosen kitten. The reservation fee guarantees the Buyer’s place in the adoption queue and ensures the kitten is held exclusively for the Buyer.

Other necessary preparations associated with the adoption

Recover legal fees, chargeback penalties, and administrative costs

If the kitten is deemed unfit for purchase by a licensed veterinarian due to a hereditary or congenital condition diagnosed prior to transfer

In all other situations, including cancellations due to personal reasons, the reservation fee is retained in full by Purebred LLC. Administrative fees apply in addition to the forfeiture of the reservation fee.

6.9.2 Administrative Fees
An additional administrative fee will apply based on the progress of the adoption process:

$100 Administrative Fee for early-stage cancellations (prior to veterinary exam and breeder confirmation)
$550 Administrative Fee for advanced-stage cancellations (after veterinary clearance, breeder confirmation, or start of travel coordination)

These fees reflect the time, coordination, and veterinary services already invested by Purebred LLC on behalf of the Buyer.

45.6 Claims involving euthanasia must include documentation from a licensed veterinarian stating that the condition was non-treatable and life-threatening. Home euthanasia without supporting medical documentation voids the guarantee.

51.4 The Buyer acknowledges that some add-ons, such as genetic testing, health plans, or breeding rights, may require additional documentation or approvals and are governed by the terms of their respective agreements.

51.5 Transferability and Non-Refundable Add-Ons (in Cases of Unfit-for-Purchase Kittens) In the event a kitten is deemed unfit for purchase due to a congenital or hereditary defect and a replacement kitten is offered, any add-ons such as extended genetic health insurance, the FIP Protection Plan, or breeding rights may be transferred to the replacement kitten at Purebred LLC’s discretion. However, any services or procedures that have already been performed on the original kitten — including but not limited to health testing, fecal analysis, PCR testing, microchipping, early spay/neuter, or other veterinary care — are considered fulfilled and are strictly non-refundable and non-transferable.

52. Client response timeline

52.1 Once the Buyer is notified that the kitten is ready for delivery or pickup, the Buyer must respond and finalize arrangements within 7 calendar days of the notification.

52.2 Failure to respond within 14 calendar days will result in the reservation being considered abandoned, and all fees paid — including the reservation fee, adoption fee, delivery fees, and any add-ons — will be forfeited in full.
