Kopy Kat Sanctuary will make arrangements, which may include picking up the cat/kitten from the home, within a reasonable period of time.

5. I agree to allow a representative from Kopy Kat Sanctuary to call or visit my home in order to ensure that the cat/kitten is receiving the proper care. Kopy Kat Sanctuary also has my permission to contact my veterinarian anytime in the future to ensure that proper veterinary care is being given to the cat/kitten as per this agreement.

Liquidated Damages: In the event that any of the terms/conditions of this contract are breached, I agree to pay Kopy Kat Sanctuary the sum of $100 as liquidated damages, this value being agreed to for the purposes of establishing value for the cat/kitten, and not barring Kopy Kat Sanctuary from also seeking the return of the cat/kitten by my agreement to forfeit ownership automatically by the breach of this contract through judicial process or any other means.

Falsification of Information: I understand that falsification of any information given on this Adoption Agreement will cause the care given to the below described cat/kitten to be automatically considered “improper” and thus the Superior Title Provision of this contract will apply.
