Bengal Cat life
Indoor Cats. Outdoor Cats.

PIXIECAT's photos
Female Breeder Bengal (2019—Current)
PixieCat is why I returned to breeding. She was intended to be a comforting friend and provide some solace. I named PixieCat after a pixie girl I once knew. I spent months training her. Many, many months. She understands a large number of human words. And while she understands them well, she is after all — still a cat.
She listens when she wants to. Pixie understands ‘food’, ‘snack’, ‘cheese’, ‘milk’, and ‘chip’. She is an indoor and outdoor cat. She understands ‘outside’, and ‘inside’. If she’s outside and I call her in, she’ll stare at me until I turn my head and then dart into the house. As for dinner and breakfast, she sits patiently at the place she’s fed when it’s mealtime and if she’s truly famished, she’ll meow.
Bengals are very vocal and talk to you often. Thankfully she’s never too hungry often, but she has plenty of other things to meow about. She’s great on car trips and if I take her in a shopping cart, she doesn’t make any effort to jump out.

Totoro's photos
Male Bengal Breeder (2021—2023) Retired
Totoro is named after the mystical forest creature from the animated classic, My Neighbor Totoro (1988). He’s very much like him in that he’s very laid back. He’s the quietest Bengal in the bunch when inside, but outside… He can really caterwaul to a girl.
Totoro is svelt, muscular, and weighs much more than he looks. His ears are nicely rounded. His belly is super white and of course, his orange and brown coat has the silky soft pelt Bengals are known for. In January of 2023, he retired to live out his days as a pet with a cat-loving family.

KIMBA's photos
Male Bengal Cat Breeder (Retired)
Don’t be fooled by his cute little stare. Kimba is a brat! But he’s our brat. Typical of Bengals, he learns patterns and systems. Couple that with his innate ability to sense when you are leaving the room, and he knows just when to get into trouble! He’s a beautifully clouded as can be best seen in the photo below with him walking along the garden wall.
Kimba’s name is from the original king of the lions. No, not Simba. I did not alter the name Kimba after Disney’s Simba. Kimba’s story and the name came first in the animated Japanese kids’ show Kimba The White Lion (1965), later broadcast in the US for kids in the 1970s.
Our Kimba now (As of late 2023) resides in central Delaware with a Military family. We’re told he is a joy to be around. We are so very happy he’s found the right home with a great couple who wanted an adult Bengal.
