Frequently Asked Questions
How Much are Your Kittens?
Our kitten prices range from $1500-$2500 depending on color and markings (please fill out our “Apply for a Kitten” form for more info)
What is your adoption process?
We first ask that you fill out our online kitten application so that we can understand what it is that you are looking for and try to help you find the perfect companion. Customers are encouraged to come visit our cattery in either Camino or Folsom, CA and meet the kitten in person if possible. If not, we will send vidoes/photos/or do a FaceTime.
If we have a kitten that you are interested in, a $300 deposit is required to hold the kitten until he/she is ready to be picked up. At this time we will all send you a purchase contract to look over and sign, outlining what is expected from us and you as the buyers.
If you are interested in a kitten younger than 4 weeks old kitten but want to see more of its development before committing, or a future litter not yet born and want to secure your place in line, we have a waitlist option that is $100 (and goes toward the final cost of the kitten). Our waitlist is posted on our website so that it is visible as to how many people are waiting and for what. Customers on our waitlist will be updated regularly with photos and videos of kittens matching their preferences until they have found the perfect match.
What do your kittens come with?
1. A purchase contract that guarantees our cattery is FIV and FELV negative and includes a 3-year health guarantee against congenital defects and a 5-year guarantee for HCM. (If your kitten develops a congenital defect or HCM within the covered period, we will provide a replacement kitten.)
2. Health records: Your kitten will be examined by a licensed veterinarian prior to leaving and will receive either 1 or 2 doses of the frcp vaccine (depending on the age at which it is picked up) and deworming/flea/tick control for one month if the vet exam shows a need.
3. One month free insurance from Trupanion.
4. Blanket and toys
5. A bag of food that the kitten has been eating.
6. TICA registration
7. Lifetime Support!

How are Bengals different from domestic cats/what should I know before committing to a bengal?
There are a few traits that make bengals different from your average house cat and may not make them suitable for some people.
High Energy Levels – As a breed, they require more exercise than the average cat, and their energy doesn’t seem to wane over time. Even our 5-year-old bengals have similar levels of energy as the kittens we sell, which is often referred to as the “kitten terror” phase—except it never really ends!
Constant Need for Stimulation – These cats tend to get bored quickly and need more engaging activities to keep them entertained. For example, it’s not uncommon for them to shred a roll of toilet paper if you’ve been gone for a short period, as they find creative ways to occupy themselves when left alone.
Bengals also tend to have more sensitive digestive tracts due to their wild ancestors so most breeders, including myself, highly recommend at least a partially raw diet or a high protein/grain free wet food diet (however finding a quality one without a lot of non-animal proteins and preservatives that they actually like can be challenging).
