| How to Adopt a Jazzmania Kitten |

WAITING LIST AND DEPOSIT
Because ragdolls are so very popular, there is almost always a waiting list for
a ragdoll kitten. To be placed on my waiting list, I require a non-refundable
deposit of $100.00. You may use the “Buy Now” button below to make a deposit
with a Visa or Mastercard or through your PayPal account. You will then be added
to my waiting list immediately and on your way to adopting your very own ragdoll!
You may also send a personal check or money order. I do reserve the right to
return your deposit if I feel your family is not a good match for one of my
ragdoll kittens.
When you contact me initially, I will be interested in the following
information: Do you have a family? Children? Ages? Other pets? Career — do you
have time to spend with a new kitten? Do you have a vet you feel comfortable
working with? Where do you live? Please note that I do not ship my kittens!
I will ask if you have a color/pattern preference and when the kittens are 6-7
weeks old, you will be invited to visit to choose your kitten based on order of
deposit. You are always welcome to wait for a later litter if the color/pattern
you prefer is not available when you visit. Also if you specified a preference
for color or pattern, you are not held to that preference if there is another
kitten available you prefer. I do not assign kittens to customers — I do not
believe this is the best way to make a good match between kittens and families.
And who knows — perhaps a kitten will choose YOU! At this appointment, I will
provide all the information you need to know before taking your kitten home in
the form of a print-out and you will be welcome to ask any additional questions
you may have.
Of course, there will be one more appointment to pick-up your new kitten! I will
provide all vaccine info, the letter from my vet, the health guarantee, samples
of your kitten’s favorite foods and a few of his/her favorite toys! Follow-up is
extremely important. When you leave my home with your new kitten, our
association is not over. If you have any questions or concerns, I encourage you
to e-mail me or call at anytime. In fact, I specifically request at least one
follow-up call/e-mail so that I can be assured that your kitten is well-adjusted
and happy (as well as you!) It also gives you the opportunity to address any
additional questions you may have.
PRICING
The base price for pet quality kittens of the traditional colors and patterns
(includes blue/seal mitteds/pointeds/bi-colors) is $600. Torties, lynxes,
torbies, flames and creams are $650. The newer colors/patterns are a bit more
because they are not as common. There is an additional charge of $100/kitten
that goes towards the cost of the spay/neuter surgery with state-of-the-art
anesthetic and surgical protocols. In addition, the price includes everything
your kitten needs for its first year of life —4 vaccines, 2 dewormings, a
complete physical by my veterinarian as well as a health guarantee by contract!
SHIPPING
I do not ship my kittens….period. I believe it is much too stressful of a
process to put a 12-week old kitten through. In addition, I want to meet and get
to know each of my kitten caretakers! If driving to my location is not possible,
many airlines will permit you to bring your kitten onboard in a carrier and be
stowed underneath your seat for an additional charge.
