Kitten Contract

Do you have one? and if so, why?

And, what kind of things are in this contract?

Thanks

Re: Kitten Contract

Yep I have contracts.
I have my name, address ect, then the new owners details. I put in when the kittens were wormed, vaccinated and microchipped. Also wether the kitten is for show/pet or breeding. I give a neutering certificate which is to be signed by the new owners vets when it's done. In our breed usually not until they are 8 months. I say that they are to be kept indoors, they can have access to a garden ect, but under supervision. I ask that could they please keep me up to date with the kittens progress, even if it's a pic and a few lines once a year at Christmas. Last, but not least, I am here for any problems, big or small and if for any reason they can't keep the kitten/cat in the future it is to be returned to us or we will help in the rehoming of it. I've probably missed something, but thats the jist of it.

Re: Kitten Contract

Nope. Saying that I've only sold two kittens and one lives in my city so I visit her and I know she's been spayed and is kept inside.

I don't think I will have one either as they are not legally binding. I would just make sure the new owner was 110% the best owner could find, or i'd just end up keeping the kitten.

Besides I only plan on having 2 or 3 litters

I think you will find that they ARE legally binding see gccf kitten contract drawn up by a solicitor,on their site

Re: Kitten Contract

I'm gonna have a look at that Thanks Me & another breeder friend had a problem with someone who'd bought Norwegian kittens off us(a different times) She rehomed one of the other breeders kittens to a rescue without giving them the chance to have it back, which they would of, sadly even though they went to a solicitor with their contract that this person had signed, they were told it was'nt legally binding and there was nothing they could do. This person has since given up the other one of theirs and the 2 I sold her. We got a friend to go & get them, they now have loving new homes We were told she did'nt want them any more as she was moving abroad and could'nt afford to pay the flights, rabies, ect. She'd only had my 2 for 5 months!! Then a couple of weeks after she has 2 new Maine Coon kittens!!!! and is taking them with her!! This person also rehomed 5 other cats/kittens last year.

Re: Kitten Contract

Im pleased you sorted out your kittens with the person, but there is somewhere on the gccf site a copy contract that was drawn up by there solicitor, i have no clue as to where on the site it is, but i have read it myself as another breeder told me about it a while back, and the gccf say we can use it if we want for our own contract or we may vary it,
so i cannot see why the solicitor that was used for the cats said it was not a legal binding contract, as it was signed by seller & buyer, then it should of been?

Re: Kitten Contract

Heard stories before about people breaking their contracts and nothing could be done. Gonna look at the GCCF website.

Re: Kitten Contract

Well, you would of thought, but apparantly it's the wording and we did'nt have in, that if the contract was broken, the cats would be removed, something I will be adding for future litters. Then apparantly we could of done things legally. What we have to do to make sure our babies are safe eh!! But they're worth it.
