Prior to

Panleukopenia, Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Pneumonitis
(Chlamydia). The Breeder guarantees
this cat/kitten to be free from Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline
Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and provides a 72-Hour Limited Warranty against

adjusting to your home.

Breeder
requests that you have your cat or kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian
within 72 hours after you have received or picked up your cat/kitten. The
Breeder is not responsible for the cost of this exam. If a cat or kitten is
determined to have the illnesses defined in Section 3A during the first 72
hours we will take care of all reasonable and customary vet expenses up to

returned to proper health. If you do not take your cat or kitten to the vet
