DEPOSIT

Purchaser shall pay a deposit of $150.00 to be placed on the waiting list, or deposit of $350.00 per Kitten, ($1000 if kitten is sold with breeding rights) which shall be applied towards the Purchase Price for the Kitten.  The balance shall be due and payable upon the release of Kitten to Purchaser.  If Kitten is to be shipped, the balance is due and payable at least 14 days before the Kitten is shipped to the Purchaser. 

The purpose of the Deposit is to ensure the Purchaser’s intent to purchase the Kitten.  The Deposit is non-refundable, should the Purchaser, for any reason, change his/her mind and decide not to buy a kitten. This is because the Kitten is being held only for the Purchaser and shall not be sold to any other buyer.  A breach of this Agreement either verbal, written or through neglect or failure to communicate by the Purchaser can jeopardize the chances of placing the Kitten in a new home, as quickly as possible.  For this reason, the Deposit is non-refundable, to ensure Purchaser’s commitment to purchase the Kitten, pay the balance and accept delivery of the Kitten by the date agreed by Seller and Purchaser. 

The Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser if the Seller fails to make the Kitten available to the Purchaser for reasons including, but not limited to, the Kitten’s mortality.  However, Seller has the option of offering a replacement kitten of similar quality, which Purchaser may accept or decline. 

PURCHASE PRICE

Purchaser has been given a price range of ___________ for each Kitten.  Purchaser understands that the final price may not be set until Kitten is at least 8 weeks old.  Once the final price has been determined and the kitten has been chosen, Seller will send Purchaser the Seller’s contract for review.  A copy of the Contract will be available for signature once Purchaser collects his/her Kitten.  If the Kitten is being shipped, we require that the Contract be signed and sent back to us (via email is acceptable) prior to the Kitten being shipped.

SELLER’S RIGHT OF REFUSAL

Seller reserves the right to refuse to sell the Kitten to the Purchaser at any time prior to the Kittens’ pickup or shipment.  Seller's decision to cancel the sale shall be motivated solely by the Seller’s determination of the best interests of the Kitten.  In that instance, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing of its decision, the reasons for this decision, and Seller shall thereupon refund Purchaser's deposit, at which time, this Agreement shall be null and void.  

GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be final and binding upon the Purchaser and Seller and shall be governed by the laws of the State of Oregon. Parties shall submit all their disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Oregon. In the event of a dispute between the parties, the prevailing party shall be entitled to his/her attorney’s fees and all costs and expenses associated with the dispute.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed and delivered this Agreement on this day of  __________________.
