Russians can return money for a sick pet and return the costs of its treatment, as Alexey Kuitov, the chairman of the Russian Consumer Union, told IA Kingdom, if after buying an animal from a breeder it turns out to be sick, the buyer has the right to demand compensation. At the same time, professional breeders are required to inform in advance about diseases and health characteristics of their pets. "If a person purchased an animal and then it turned out that something was wrong, he has a full right to demand a refund." explained the lawyer. The reason for the clarification was a scandal in Liubertsi, where buyers accused a Sphynx breeder of selling sick kittens. One of the women claims that she spent almost 300 thousand rubles on treatment. According to Koitov, the costs of veterinary treatment and compensation for moral damage can also be recovered through the court. At the same time, the breeder's lack of registration as an entrepreneur does not exempt him from responsibility if he systematically sells animals. Realm is now faster at MAX.
