TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP
It is understood that the ferret is being surrendered for its
continued welfare and that the Stolen Hearts Ferret Rescue Shelter
accepts said ferret in an as is condition. It is further understood
that the Stolen Hearts Ferret Rescue Shelter assumes full ownership,
thereby full responsibility, for any current or future illness while
the ferret is in the custody of the shelter. It is also understood
that the surrendering party has the legal right to surrender the ferret
to the shelter.
There is a reconsideration period of not more than 72 hours if
requested, so that the surrendering party may rethink the decision.
If a decision to reclaim the ferret is made, the owner will pay all
boarding fees and any medical fees incurred during the 72-hour grace
period. The ferret will not be placed before that time and can be
reclaimed only by the person signing below.
Total confidentiality will be observed unless the surrendering
party wishes to communicate with the adopting party. The request must
be put in writing for the adopting party's acknowledgment.
The Stolen Hearts Ferret Rescue Shelter reserves the right of refusal
in placing any ferret so surrendered, if, in their judgment, certain
prerequisites of ownership are not met. No ferret will be placed anywhere
that restricts or bans ownership of ferrets specifically or by inclusion.
Nor shall any ferret be knowingly placed in a home or institution
for the purpose of ritual, rite or medical experimentation.
The Stolen Hearts Ferret Rescue Shelter guarantees the surrendering party
that their ferret will receive the utmost in care and consideration
in the placement with a new owner. Future contact with the new owner
will be done in the interest of continued health and welfare concerns.
The Stolen Hearts Ferret Rescue Shelter operates as a shelter
as a service to ferrets and as such is not a business.
I hereby certify to the best of my knowledge that all the above
information is true and complete. I give up all rights to the above
named ferret.
