At The Sugar Shack’s Glider Grove, our wellness warranty ensures our customers of the healthiest sugar glider joeys.  Unfortunately, each Glider Grove joey can only be warranteed for the first 72 hours after you receive possession of it due to the fact that most glider health problems occur as direct a result of improper care, nutrition, or environment.  If your new sugar glider shows signs of illness within the 72-hour time period, it is your responsibility to immediately take that joey to a veterinarian that is familiar with treating sugar gliders for examination.  You must contact us within 24 hours after your veterinary visit.  Be prepared to provide us with the details of any illness that the doctor has diagnosed.  At this time, we can opt to extend the warranty period until the problem resolved.  Glider Grove joeys are NOT warranteed against any illness or death occurring as a result of irresponsibility, traumatic injury, or improper care.  Should the death of your new joey occur within our warranty period, we reserve the right to either replace the joey or refund your adoption fee on a case-by-case basis.  In addition, we reserve the right to request that a veterinarian supply us with verification of the cause of death.  Furthermore, no warranty is intended or implied concerning the temperament and/ or reproductive ability of any Glider Grove joeys.

Any sugar gliders adopted from The Sugar Shack’s Glider Grove program shall not be sold, gifted, or otherwise given to another party without written consent from the breeder.  In the event that the initial responsible party becomes unable to maintain possession of said sugar glider, the breeder retains first option to purchase sugar glider ___joey id #___ back, according to the fee schedule listed below:

            Up to 2 years after adoption at ½ of the original agreed fee.

            2 years up to 4 years after adoption at 1/3 of the original agreed fee.

If at any point this contract is breeched by the responsible party or the adopted sugar glider is reported ill, injured, or at risk due to abuse or neglect while in the responsible party’s care, the breeder reserves the right to both reclaim the sugar glider and provide any necessary medical treatment solely at the expense of the responsible party listed below. Should a determination of abuse or neglect of the sugar glider be made by a qualified veterinarian, a humane officer, or a representative of a corresponding government agency, the sugar glider in question will be reclaimed by the breeder with no compensation provided to the responsible party listed below, as well as with no compensation being provided to the party that the sugar glider was adopted on the behalf of.  In addition, any false statements made on the responsible party’s initial application, constitute an immediate breech of contract and become penalized as such. 

 

I, ______your name______, by signing my name to this contract, become the responsible party and hereby agree to abide by all of the terms and conditions that are listed within as set forth by the breeder.  In addition, I certify that I have completely read and fully understand the contents of the contract listed above.
