Sales Agreement
SALES AGREEMENT
Leesburg Chinchillas is a small hobby breeder, which means we can spend more time with the kits. We start socializing kits when they are born. Some of our kits like to be cuddled with, some don’t- it depends on the chinchilla. If you feel that you want a pet that cuddles with you all the time, I suggest you do more research before choosing a chinchilla as a pet. We do not recommend chinchillas as pets for small children, for a number of reasons. They are nocturnal, and most young children go to bed an hour after the chins are active. Most chinchillas don’t like to be cuddled with, and young children tend to want to hold their new friend.
By signing this agreement, you understand and agree to the following:
-That you are giving the animal a forever home. If something should happen, and you can no longer keep the animal, Leesburg Chinchillas has the first option to take it back. We may refund 50% of what you paid when buying from us under some circumstances, but not all.
-All chinchillas are healthy when sold, but we can not guarantee that genetic problems won’t occur. All of our breeder chins are purchased from good breeders, and we do not breed any chin with a known genetic health issue. When you purchase a chinchilla from us, you must have a chin knowledgeable vet on hand. You are responsible for any vet costs that you may have after you purchase/pick up the chinchilla. If you have any concern regarding your chin’s health you have 2 weeks (14 days) to have the chin seen by a vet. If the vet finds a health problem with the chin, and signs a statement saying that this happened while the chin was in our care, you can do one of two things. 1) Keep the chinchilla, and find treatment for it or 2) return the chinchilla to Leesburg Chinchillas, we will refund your money or, if you choose, give you another chinchilla. We will not give you another chinchilla or refund your money if a vet does not see the chinchilla with in 14 days.
__The chinchilla may be breeding quality (has breeding quality lines and a pedigree), but we can not guarantee the chinchilla will be proper weight. For females, they should be at least 600 grams, and at least 8 months old. For males, they should be at least 500 grams but the bigger the better. All chins come with pedigrees, but if/when you want to start breeding, please be responsible and make sure he is the proper weight and age.
__This chinchilla is not to be bred. Most chins come with a pedigree, and will come with one if they have it. However, it states on the pedigree that this chin is not to be bred. Any chinchilla listed as pet quality is not to be bred. Breeding this chin could result in deformed, sick or dead kits, and possibly a sick or dead mother chin.
