We have kittens on the way!

Whitney & Hustler's five gorgeous brown spotted babies, who arrived on the 1st of July 2008, have all now gone to new homes - apart from little Isis, who will remain here with us and join the other breeding girls once she is a bit bigger. Her shoulder markings and bedroom eyes were just too tempting to resist!

Although we have no kittens currently available, Phoenix is expecting a litter of Hustler's near the beginning of November, which will mean kittens available early in the New Year. We've also had a couple of the other girls showing a bit of interest recently so definitely check back for updates soon.

If you would like to speak more about owning a Bengal or go onto our waiting list for a kitten, please do not hesitate to phone on 01578 750 731 or email: iwantabengal@btinternet.com

We look forward to hearing from you!

Bengal kittens.

Frisky brothers Bengatage Demetrius & Bengatage Dante

Our kittens are reared and sold within the guidelines of the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) and The Bengal Cat Club. (See links page for further information on these organisations.)

They go to their new homes at about 13 weeks of age. Kittens leave us GCCF-registered (with a four-generation pedigree), wormed, micro-chipped and fully vet-checked.

They are vaccinated against flu, enteritis, chlamydia and feline leukaemia and go to their new homes with a month's supply of both food and litter, a Bengatage information pack and six weeks' worth of insurance cover. This is all inclusive in the price.

All of our Bengals are healthy and happy and enjoy an inordinate amount of attention, care and love. The cattery is on a grassy glade on our one-acre property with beautiful views, clean warm sleeping quarters and plenty of room to run around and play. Pressure activated heating pads and heated runs keep them cosy in winter and they drink fresh Scottish spring water with their Hills biscuits.

Andy has just recently completed work on a purpose-built kittening pen, with enclosed birthing box and plenty of room for mum to run about and exercise when not attending to her babies. Right in the heart of the Bengatage cattery, it is isolated enough to give the mum and her new additions room to bond and play but near enough to the our other girls so that mum doesn't feel too removed or go through too much fuss when being reintroduced into the scrum after kittens have gone to their new homes.

"We can't thank you enough for letting us own Bindi. She is a joy to have and so affectionate. She greets you like a dog, talks to you all the time and has lots of kisses and cuddles to give.

We have had so many lovely comments about her and our vet thinks she is wonderful - she even climbed up on him and gave him a kiss.

Can't wait to own one of your Ragdoll babies. We have no hesitation in owning any of your kittens, as your breeding is exceptional and your kittens are very well reared. I wish more breeders took the time and patience that you do."

- Dave & Lainey Harrison, happy owners of Bengatage Aggie (AKA "Bindi", pictured right), Ragatage Kyla & Ragatage Neroli

An advantage of being cat breeders is that it enables us to secure special offers and deals that might not otherwise be available to you. We currently have arrangements with Pet Plan insurance providers, Hills Science Diet, Royal Canin and World's Best Cat Litter in order to be able to provide you with six weeks free insurance through Pet Plan (from the day you take your kitten home) and sample packs of both Hills and World's Best. This in no way obligates you to any of the providers but you may receive marketing information in future.

These arrangements necessitate that we provide them with your details in the form of name, address, telephone number(s), contact email and information about your kitten (name, breed, colour, date of birth, etc).

Without wanting to circumvent any current legislation - namely the Data Protection Act 1998 - we ask that you allow us to provide these details so that we may secure these offers for you. Your details will be used for no other purpose and will be passed to no other parties. We ensure that all personal data will be held in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

If you would prefer us NOT to pass your details on to these providers, please indicate this at the time of reserving your kitten.

We can provide a starter pack at

  a cost of £50.

  This pack includes:

  - covered litter tray & scoop

  - food & water dishes

  - padded bed

  - selection of toys

  We can also source activity centres,

  incorporating scratching posts and hammock

  or play ring, for £50.

  Pet carriers are £25 each.

  Please note that items must be ordered at

  least two days before picking up your

  kitten.
