SGAA Last Litter Program Application Form

Last Litter Program

Please note that submitting this application does not guarantee approval. Each application is assessed individually, and SGAA may decline an application. If approved, the applicants are responsible for making the mother cat and kittens available at the location and time arranged by SGAA. Where an SGAA carer is not available in the applicant's local area, the applicant may be required to travel to an agreed collection or meeting point to facilitate the transport of the animals.
If any kittens are given away or kept by you, the free desexing of the mum cat no longer applies. Should you wish to adopt one of the kittens back, please discuss this with committee.
If any issues arise with the kittens or mum cat prior to them coming in to care, ie illness, please let the committee know by calling 0458 157 155 or by emailing us at rescue@sgaa.onmicrosoft.com, please do not contact carers directly. Thankyou.

Socialisation

We encourage you to please spend time socialising the kittens and getting them used to human interaction. It makes their transition to foster care and then their forever homes much easier on them.
Are the kittens or the mother cat (or have they in the past) showing any signs of ill health for example - sneezing, watery or gunky eyes, limping, snotty nose, coughing, dry patches of skin, missing fur, fleas, worms ect. Please explain any possible symptoms below. Please answer this question honestly. Telling us about an illness does not automatically exclude your kittens from the program. It allows us to ensure we have an available carer who can organise the correct quarantine, treatment and foster care before they arrive.
(OPTIONAL) If your kittens are 7 weeks of age or older at the time of submitting this application and you have nice, individual photos of each kitten that you would be happy for us to use for their profile on our database, please feel free to add them here. Please answer yes if you are happy for us to also use these pictures for advertising the kittens once available for adoption if they are suitable.

I give South Gippsland Animal Aid authorisation to use the above photos for advertising purposes on their social media accounts and their website.
The desexing of the mother cat will be arranged for 5-10 days after the kittens come into care. If there are no foster carers close to you, you may be required to deliver mum cat to a carer for the procedure and then pick her up again post the procedure. Mum cat will be gone for a few days while undergoing the procedure. She will be under the care of our chosen vet during this period. South Gippsland Animal Aid do not fund the free desexing if you choose to use your own vet instead of our chosen vet. Do you agree to these terms?
Declaration

I acknowledge and agree that:

- I understand that by handing the kittens over to South Gippsland Animal Aid (SGAA), I surrender ownership and responsibility for the kittens to SGAA. I will not subsequently claim ownership of, or arrange the return or transfer of, any kitten unless I have made PRIOR arrangements with SGAA to adopt that kitten. I understand that if I wish to adopt one of the kittens back it will be subject to SGAA's normal adoption requirements.

- I agree to make the mother cat available at the time and location arranged by SGAA for collection and transport to an SGAA-approved veterinary provider. Where a SGAA carer is not available in my local area, I understand that I may be required to travel to an agreed collection or meeting point to facilitate her transport.

- I understand that the mother cat's desexing will be arranged through an SGAA-approved veterinary provider and that I cannot choose or substitute my own veterinarian for the procedure.

- I acknowledge that desexing and anaesthesia involve inherent risks, including but not limited to bleeding, infection, adverse reactions, complications, injury and, in rare cases, death. I understand that SGAA and the veterinary provider are not responsible for veterinary costs arising from complications that are recognised or inherent risks of the procedure, including complications that may develop following surgery. Any additional veterinary treatment required as a result of such complications may incur costs that are not covered by SGAA.

- I understand that the mother cat may need to remain with the veterinary provider for longer than originally anticipated where this is considered necessary due to complications, veterinary advice or recovery requirements.

- I agree to follow the instructions provided by SGAA and the veterinary provider regarding the mother's care, transport, surgery, recovery and return.

By submitting this application, I confirm that I have read, understood and agree to the above conditions of the SGAA Last Litter Program.
Do you agree to the above conditions?
