Our Health Guarantee
Every kitten leaves my house with a written health contract. One guarantee, four years, same for every kitten I place. Most catteries offer one year.
Four years, because I would rather stand behind a kitten long enough for anything hereditary to actually show up than hand you a piece of paper that expires before it matters.
Term: 4 years from go-home date
The 4-year term begins on the kitten's go-home date. Every kitten, every placement. No tiers and no upgrades to buy.
What it covers
Hereditary genetic conditions that trace back to my breeding cats. If your kitten is diagnosed with a covered hereditary genetic condition within that period, I will review it with you and work toward the remedy outlined in the written contract.
What it does not cover
I would rather tell you this now than argue about it later. It does not cover illness, accident, injury, or anything environmental. It does not cover conditions unrelated to hereditary genetics. It does not replace good veterinary care, and it does not apply if the kitten is not kept on the veterinary schedule in the contract.
Where my health testing actually stands
Parents are completing health testing; I share each cat's current status openly and results as they're finalized.
Every kitten is vet-cleared before pickup and covered by a written 4-year genetic health guarantee.
If you have questions about where testing stands for a specific parent cat, ask before you deposit — I will tell you what I have and what I do not.
The contract is the real document
This page is the plain-language version. The written contract you receive is what governs — complete terms, the claim process, every condition. Ask me about it before you commit and I will send you a copy and walk you through it before any deposit.
Questions?
Text me. I answer texts faster than email and I would rather talk it through than have you guess.
