Health Guarantee
A healthy beginning for every little companion.
At Ragdoll Boutique, your kitten's health and well-being are central to our care. Every kitten receives preventive care and health screening before joining their new family, helping make the transition into their forever home a confident one.
Our health provisions include two FVRCP vaccinations, a rabies vaccination, fresh FIV/FeLV blood screening, deworming, and a one-year genetic health guarantee.
Ensuring optimal health for your purebred kitten
The first months of a kitten's life are an important period for growth, development, and preventive veterinary care. Our health program focuses on protecting kittens from common feline infectious diseases and preparing them for life with their new families.
Each kitten receives two FVRCP vaccinations, a rabies vaccination, fresh blood screening for FIV and FeLV, and deworming. These measures provide important health protections and a foundation for continuing veterinary care.
Vaccinations and screening are important, but ongoing veterinary care remains essential after your kitten comes home. Maintaining their vaccination schedule, monitoring their health, and establishing a relationship with a veterinarian help support their long-term well-being.
Our standards for your kitten's well-being
Our veterinary health provisions address four important areas of preventive care: vaccination, viral screening, and parasite control. Here's what each measure means for your kitten.
Two FVRCP Vaccinations
Each kitten receives two FVRCP vaccinations. These highly effective immunizations help protect against three contagious and potentially life-threatening feline diseases: Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Feline Calicivirus, and Feline Panleukopenia.
Depending on the kitten's age and veterinary recommendations, additional booster vaccinations may be required after arrival.
Rabies Vaccination
A rabies vaccination is included as an essential preventive measure against a serious viral disease. Rabies vaccination also forms part of the veterinary requirements in many locations.
Future booster schedules should follow your veterinarian's recommendations and applicable local regulations.
Fresh Blood Work for FIV/FeLV
Each kitten receives blood screening for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). Both infections can seriously affect feline health and may compromise the immune system.
Screening helps identify possible infection and informs veterinary decisions. Neither infection has a guaranteed cure, and there is no effective FIV vaccine routinely available in the United States; FeLV vaccines do exist.
Deworming
Every kitten undergoes deworming as part of their preventive care. This treatment helps address intestinal parasites that can affect a kitten's digestion, development, and overall health.
We recommend scheduling a fecal examination and an additional deworming treatment with your veterinarian after receiving your kitten, according to their professional guidance.
Our Commitment
HEALTH ⢠CARE ⢠RESPONSIBILITYWe understand that welcoming a Ragdoll kitten is a meaningful commitment. Our responsibility is to provide appropriate care during the kitten's time with us and support a well-prepared transition into their new home.
This begins with preventive veterinary care, vaccinations, infectious disease screening, and parasite management. These measures are designed to reduce avoidable health risks and help families begin their journey with useful information about their kitten's care.
We also recognize that preventive care is an ongoing responsibility. New owners should continue veterinary examinations, recommended vaccinations, parasite prevention, appropriate nutrition, and regular health monitoring as their kitten grows.
Our one-year genetic health guarantee provides an additional commitment concerning qualifying hereditary health conditions, subject to the written guarantee agreement.
Genetic Health Guarantee
Ragdoll Boutique provides a one-year genetic health guarantee as part of its commitment to responsible kitten placement. The guarantee addresses qualifying hereditary health conditions during the applicable guarantee period.
Genetic conditions differ from infectious diseases, injuries, and illnesses that may develop for other reasons. The written guarantee agreement determines the covered diagnoses, required veterinary evidence, exclusions, and remedies available to the owner.
Genetic Health Protection
The guarantee is specifically concerned with qualifying hereditary conditions, rather than every illness or medical issue that can arise during a cat's lifetime.
Veterinary Documentation
Veterinary records and appropriate diagnostic evidence are important for understanding a hereditary condition and evaluating any claim under the guarantee.
Responsible Ownership
Maintaining regular veterinary care, appropriate nutrition, a safe home environment, and recommended preventive treatment supports your kitten's health beyond the initial placement.
