THE SELLER AND BUYER UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS OF THE AGREEMENT:

BUYER understands the holding fee is non-refundable but can be transferable to another cat of the same litter if available or a different litter for up to 2 years from time of holding fee as long as the Seller is still in business breeding.
