We have a fairly strong law in NJ...if a sold pet is 'defective' the consumer is entitled to reimbursement of vet bills up to TWO times the cost of the pet.

This New Jersey Act protects pet purchasers who receive "defective" companion animals. A purchaser of a defective pet must have his or her pet examined by a veterinarian within 14 days of purchase to receive a refund or exchange. Alternatively, a buyer may retain the pet and be reimbursed for veterinary bills up to two times the cost of the dog or cat.
