Sales Policies
If you are interested in purchasing a rabbit from Chrissys Critter Ranch for show, breeding or pet please review the following sales policies:
GENERAL POLICIES
HOLDING POLICY
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to hold a rabbit for any period of time. A rabbit is not considered on hold until deposit is received. The remaining balance is due when you come to pick up your rabbit. Rabbit must be picked up on date that is mutually decided upon. If rabbit is not picked up within 2 weeks of the deposit and you do not make effort to pick up the rabbit it will go back up for sale and deposit will not be refunded.
HEALTH GUARANTEE
Any rabbit sold will be in good health to the best of my knowledge and belief. The rabbit's health is guaranteed for 5 days after sale.
Please contact me immediately if your rabbit becomes ill or dies to determine if you are eligible for a refund or replacement rabbit. I will only issue a refund or provide a replacement rabbit if the illness is determined to be a pre-existing condition (most rabbit diseases have a 7-10 incubation period).
A written diagnosis from a certified veterinarian must be given in order to get a refund/exchange. I will not be held responsible for veterinary or medical costs incurred.
***A refund does not apply if illness or death is due to improper care (mishandling, improper feeding, etc.)***
METHOD OF PAYMENT
I accept cash and online money transfers ONLY. No personal cheques or money orders please.
ANIMAL QUALITY
Show Quality: A show quality rabbit is a rabbit I feel would place well in a show or has already proven itself at a show.
Brood Quality: A brood quality rabbit is a rabbit that is often from show genetics but didn't quite meet my stand of a show rabbit because it has a fault (small nip in an ear, overweight, etc.)
Pet Quality: A pet quality rabbit is a rabbit that is not suited for showing or breeding because of one or more disqualifying traits by the Standard of Perfection. Although they may have a flaw they are still hand raised, friendly and would make a loving pet.
CLOSED RABBITRY
Chrissys Critter Ranch is a closed rabbitry and as such I do not allow anyone except myself and close family and friends into the rabbit barn. This ensures the safety and health of all my rabbits. Allowing people the rabbits are not use to into the barn can cause stress (especially to nursing or pregnant does) and also allows the chance for outside illness to my rabbits if you have or are in contact with a rabbit not in my barn.
I care very much for my rabbits and its just a hobby for me because I enjoy it. The rabbits live in a climatized room in our barn and I will happily bring a rabbit up to our house for pick up or viewing. Keep in mind this means I have to quarantine the rabbit for two weeks to ensure it is still healthy before it can go back into the bunny barn if not picked up that day.
I thank everyone for their understanding as my rabbits health is very important to me and I am always happy to answer any questions to new and old rabbit owners the best I can.
GENERAL POLICIES
- No rabbit will leave the rabbitry until at least 7 weeks of age.
- Rabbits will not be sold to anyone under 18 years of age without a parent or guardian present at time of sale.
- I reserve the right to refuse the sale of a rabbit at any time.
- Death or illness of a rabbit during transport will not warrant a monetary refund or replacement as such event is not the responsibility of the breeder. Transport is hard on a rabbit and because of this I will not allow rabbits under 8 weeks of age to be transported a distance deemed too great by myself
- If at anytime you cannot care for the rabbit you have purchased it may be returned to me.
