We carefully monitor our lines and stand behind the health of our kittens.

For a period of six months, TESCATS provides replacement consideration in the event of a fatal genetic or congenital defect, provided that licensed veterinary documentation and diagnostic confirmation are supplied.

This guarantee does not extend to common environmental, viral, bacterial, or parasite-related illnesses that may occur after the kitten has left our care.

All TESCATS kittens leave our home healthy to the best of our knowledge and with age-appropriate care already in place.

Buyers agree to have their kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian within 48 hours of pickup or delivery.

If a serious medical deficiency is discovered within that initial 48-hour period, TESCATS must be notified immediately and veterinary documentation must be provided. In confirmed breeder-related health situations, breeder remedies will be discussed according to contract terms.

Prompt communication is extremely important, especially if the kitten is not eating, adjusting poorly, or showing signs of distress.

Before leaving TESCATS, each kitten receives:

• age-appropriate vaccinations
• deworming as needed
• routine wellness observation
• health record documentation

Buyers receive a copy of the kitten’s health information along with guidance for continued veterinary care and transition into the new home.

To protect the health of the kitten and maintain the terms of the health guarantee, buyers agree to provide:

• indoor-only housing
• timely veterinary care
• routine vaccinations and wellness checks
• proper nutrition and hygiene
• safe supervision and loving companionship

Exotic Shorthair kittens should never be exposed to unknown outdoor animals or unsafe environments during development.

Buyer is responsible for all veterinary expenses after placement.

We work with families throughout the United States and can help coordinate safe transport options when local pickup is not possible.

Available options may include:

• local pickup in Texas
• airport meeting
• in-cabin flight nanny delivery

All transportation arrangements are discussed individually to ensure the safest and least stressful experience for the kitten.

Transportation fees are separate from kitten purchase price unless otherwise stated.

All TESCATS kittens are registered through the Cat Fanciers’ Association.

Pet kittens are placed with limited registration unless breeding rights have been discussed and approved in writing before placement.

Pet buyers agree to complete spay or neuter within the recommended age window and provide veterinary confirmation in order to receive final registration paperwork.

Because each kitten is reserved individually and significant time is invested in daily care, updates, and preparation for placement, all deposits are non-refundable.

Final payments are also non-refundable once transportation, pickup scheduling, or transfer arrangements have been completed.

TESCATS reserves the right to refuse or cancel a sale if we feel a placement is not in the best interest of the kitten. In such rare breeder-cancelled situations, deposits paid may be refunded at breeder discretion.

TESCATS does not guarantee breeding ability, future show performance, allergies within the home, landlord approval, or behavioral outcomes caused by environmental handling after placement.

This health agreement applies only to the original purchaser and becomes void if the kitten is sold, transferred, or rehomed.

Because proper adjustment is essential, buyers are asked to contact TESCATS promptly with any concerns so breeder guidance can be provided during the transition.
