    They are very lovely cats, I love Bengal cats, here are my two and soon to be three.


    Gorgeous! I think once you get one Bengal, they are addictive :D but I truly believe we have enough cats now (never thought i'd see myself write that!)

    I don't have the problem of people thinking that Friday is my real name :). I suppose now I have 5, I could have called the others Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday :rotfl:Especially as Friday is the eldest of the 5!

    Ha ha , that's a week joke!
    Love the new photos,especially the 2 cuties on the kitty activity centre. I want Spot but sadly my hounds would not agree: here they are!

    They are gorgeous.

    My son has a Bengal she is just as beautiful as my four moggies!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

  • Spot is adorable, I've always wanted a Bengal.

    The pictures did bring a tear to my eye though, had to have my tabby put down this morning :(

    I am very sorry to hear that. It is always a difficult time and I apologise if I have made things worse for you :( I have had three cats pass over to the Rainbow Bridge in my adult years of keeping cats, and I think of all three regularly. Giving you lots of ((hugs)).

    The price can vary hugely on whether or not you want to show/breed and who you buy them from. But if you want a decent pet quality cat from a reputable breeder, you can expect to pay between £400 and £600 each :eek: My two would have been £450 each but I got a £50 per kitten discount for getting two (that wasn't my reason for getting two, mind :rotfl:). So I paid £800 - £100 at the time I reserved them a few weeks ago, and £700 when the breeder brought them round to my house. She brought them to me as she likes to see where her kittens are going to live.

    I would certainly recommend my breeder if you are interested and can get to North Shropshire. She is a vet and breeds for a hobby, so she doesn't have loads of litters each year, but she is hugely concerned with the welfare of all of her adult cats and kittens, and not breeding just to make a quick buck.

    Wow, chaps!

    Check out the website given by Fridaycat and look at (I think) Sultan.

    What an amazing coat he has!

    Fridaycat
    do you think I'll have more success with trying to persuade the breeder to swop Sultan with my 11 year old arthritic, still semi-feral, cantankerous, bad tempered bruiser of a tom cat (who's nipped my ankle because he thinks he's entitled to more food even though he had half a 400gm tin at 8am this morning and last night hogged more than half the bed) than I did with you? :rotfl:

    I looked through the website and it was really nice to see that their 'retired' cats now have what looks like really good homes.

    Sultan is the kitten that Sue bought for stud, he came from Scotland and is more gorgeous in the flesh than in the pictures! He should certainly sire some fantastic kittens! I know Sue paid a fortune for him, but was too polite to ask exactly how much. I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't get much change from a grand :eek:

    He won second prize in the newcomer kitten at a cat show recently. Not bad, but even better when you consider it was an Abyssinian cat show, not a Bengal one! :D It was in a class where all the people going to the show voted for their favourite. Or something like that anyway :rotfl:

    Do I think Sue will swap Sultan for your tom cat? Hang on, let me just go call her....

    And the answer is.....

    No :rotfl:
