By entering our cat lounge, all visitors agree to the following Release of Liability, Covenant Not to Sue, and Assumption of the Risk:

In consideration of being granted access to Tabby & Fidos LLC, located at 300 North Main Street, Bowling Green, Ohio 43402

I, THE ENTRANT, ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING:

1. Assumption of Risk
I understand that interaction with cats can involve certain risks, including but not limited to bites, scratches, allergic reactions, infections, and other injuries or illnesses. I understand that these risks may occur without warning or provocation, even with proper supervision and safety precautions. By entering the Lounge, I knowingly and voluntarily assume all risks associated with interacting with cats at the Café.

2. Animal Backgrounds
I acknowledge that the cats at the Café come from a variety of backgrounds, including but not limited to being formerly stray, abandoned, neglected, abused, or surrendered. As such, their behavior may be unpredictable despite the Café’s efforts to ensure safety and proper socialization.

3. Appropriate Conduct
I agree to treat all cats gently, respectfully, and appropriately. I will pay attention to signs of irritation, fear, or aggression from any cat and will follow all staff instructions regarding safe interaction.

4. Health Disclaimer
While the Café strives to ensure all cats receive proper veterinary care, vaccinations, and treatments, it cannot guarantee the health, temperament, or parasite-free status of any animal. The Café makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the health or behavior of any cat on the premises.

5. Medical Responsibility
If I sustain any injury, illness, allergic reaction, or damage of any kind—directly or indirectly—related to my presence or participation at the Café, I agree that I am fully responsible for any resulting medical treatment, costs, or related expenses.

6. Release of Liability & Covenant Not to Sue
In consideration of being permitted to enter and participate, I hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue Tabby & Fidos LLC, its owners, employees, volunteers, agents, partners, and affiliates from any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action arising out of or related to my participation or presence, including but not limited to those resulting from the negligence of the Café or its representatives.

7. Indemnification
I agree to indemnify and hold harmless Tabby & Fidos LLC, its owners, employees, volunteers, agents, partners, and affiliates from any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or attorney’s fees arising out of my conduct or participation at the Café, including any claims made by third parties.

8. Acknowledgment of Risks
I understand that injuries or adverse outcomes may result from my own actions, the actions of others, or factors beyond anyone’s control. I voluntarily accept and assume all such known and unknown risks.

9. Photo & Media Consent
I understand and agree that any photos or videos taken by me or of me while on the Café premises may be used by Tabby & Fidos LLC for promotional, marketing, or social-media purposes, without compensation or prior approval. I further grant the Café a perpetual, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, and distribute such content in any format or media.

10. Age Requirement and Minors
I confirm that I am at least 18 years of age and legally competent to read this agreement. If I am the parent or legal guardian of any minors accompanying me, I assume full responsibility for their safety, behavior, and compliance with Café rules. I accept and assume the risks described above on their behalf and agree to the same release and indemnification terms.

11. Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, and any disputes arising under or related to this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of Wood County, Ohio.

12. Severability
If any portion of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect.

I have carefully read this Release of Liability, Assumption of Risk, and Photo Consent Agreement. I fully understand its contents, and I am aware that by entering the cat lounge, I am waiving certain legal rights, including the right to sue Tabby & Fidos LLC and its representatives. 

I agree to this document freely and voluntarily.
