As owners of the bengal breed, and avid animal rescuers we came up with an amazing idea to start up a cattery that will not only help to keep the bengal breed alive, but also to assist with rescuing unwanted bengals and educating prospective pet owners about them! Our goal is to produce high quality bengals with great health and temperaments that will be loved and cared for just as we have done si
nce they came into this world. We will be representing the breed in both TICA and CFA associations. Because we also do rescue, we do understand the issue people have with breeding. I can honestly say it is very rare to find a true bengal in a shelter and without breeders they could not exist. I know this from first hand experience of trying to adopt a bengal from a shelter over a seven year time frame and never finding one. Just by luck, I found someone who was re-homing one and adopted him. Ryu is a great cat, but he is our personal pet and not a breeder cat. In researching breeding, yes some people do it improperly. That is not our goal at Dracarys Bengals. We have excellent mentors assisting us with our bengal breedings. We will always seek assistance or advice in anything we do not understand from those who are recognized in the community as being ethical. We are also committed to our cats for their entire LIFE. We never want to see one of our animals placed in a pound, or given away or sold! Our babies are always welcome to come back to us for ANY reason and it will actually be required if purchasing a kitten from us. Animals have feelings. They are not objects. We love every one of our animals and want them to be placed with the best possible families. If we deny a sale to you, it is simply because we may not feel it is the right fit for our babies. Our responsibility is to the animals as we are creating them and bringing them into the world. At no time do we ever want anything bad to happen to them. We will rarely sell our Bengals to people for breeding. There are to many people who are irresponsible and we do not wish to contribute to that aspect. We are not implying that we will never sell a breeder, but it will be at our discretion and we will want to consult with others whom have worked with you on a professional level. This will include veterinarians! Finally, we will require a home check for every single animal that we place into a home! Yes we understand that you are paying for a pet, but to us they are our everything and we want them to not only have a good family, but we also have to ensure that they will have a safe area to reside in. We will continue to be advocates for cats in rescue as well as working to perfect the bengal breed.
