Rabbit Sales Agreement

ALL buyers (whether purchasing a pet or breeder) MUST sign and agree to a Rabbit Sales Agreement. This agreement includes the following:

Description of Rabbit(s) to be purchased

This section will have their age, weight, date of pigk-up/delivery, date of birth, parents, physical description of the rabbit(s), price agreed upon, if a deposit was made and when it was made.

Health Guarentee

This section will tell you what we cover and what we don't.
