I acquired my first Bengal in the summer of 2006 from Grace Lush at Bundas Cattery.  I fell in love with a beautiful tri-color Marble female which I brought home and agreed to breed her back at Grace's a few times.  This was the start to my adventure.  Jungle Jasmine, is our jungle princess, really smart and a real sweetheart.  After falling in love with her, I decided to obtain another female to start a small breeding program.

     I currently have 5 Queens (1 of which is up and coming).

Jasmine is a Tri-color Marbled Bengal with an extremely tight, shimmering, silky coat.  She is a small queen (only 7 lbs) with huge green eyes and a sweet chirping voice.  She is very affectionate, loves to play (even in water), check out what ever I am doing and is a wonderful, caring, new mama cat.

 Patty is a keeper girl from Jazzy's first litter with Meerkat.  She is a clone of  her Mama except that her eyes are golden .... she has the same tight, glistenting marble coat pattern......  Unlike Jazzy, however, Patty carries for snow......and will hopefully make snow marble babies.....

Pictures below are taken at 14 weeks.

Patty weighed 5.8 lbs at 10 months and now weights 8.5 lbs at 1yr !!! Bengals often don't realize their full size and pattern until 1-2 years of age........you can see how her pattern has opened up beautifully in the last year!

Patty had her first litter with Rafiki....which arrived safely on

July 26, 2008 !!!!

Gracie is a silver/black marbled bengal from Heartfelt Cattery in Northern California.  She is the closest to the 'wild' side of all my Bengals as she is an F6.  She arrived here safely in March 2007...after a cold winter and series of delayed flights.  She is a large boned female (30" long, 10" tail, 7.2 lbs, at 1 yr), with light green eyes.  She is very affectionate, always looking for a cuddle and is even affectionate with our husky!  She is also a wonderful new mama cat. Thanks to Karron Taylor of Heartfelt Bengals.

Gracie carries for Snow and Glitter.
