Bengal Cat Information Menu

In the past, we have always conducted casual tours of our cattery to all visitors who wish to see our Bengals in person. But lately, we have had to rethink our policy on allowing visitors. Our Bengals' physical and mental well-being is our top priority, and we feel strongly that we must respect the privacy of both our queens and their newborns. Most queens often find intrusions into their safe areas quite upsetting, as they feel very threatened having strangers come in and touch their babies, and in some severe cases can be so upsetting they will hurt or even abandon their babies.

It may seem like a good idea to come visit young kittens to see which one might "fit" you best, but kittens aren't like puppies. Until they are weaned, they focus on their mother and littermates, and they don't readily go to strangers. Cats are much more wary than dogs, and need time to get to know someone before they can accept them.

Besides that, please understand that we at Abundadots cattery are totally responsible for the health and well-being of our kittens. By allowing visitors to come into our nursery area, we are potentially exposing these young babies to disease or bacteria that may be carried on the hands or clothing of well-meaning visitors.

We can send you lots of pictures and information as your kitten grows, and there is a wealth of information including many photos here on this website. Once you've selected a kitten and it is past the risky stage, their immune system is no longer in jeopardy and the first immunizations are given, you will then be able to make an appointment to come pick up your kitten.

Please understand that we feel this policy is necessary in order to protect our very young and vulnerable babies. We will not risk their health just to make a "sale". Thank you kindly.
