affordable bengals


hi, sorry for a double post (i've posted similar message in the wanted section),
I have fallen head over heels in love with bengals but wouldnt be able to afford to buy pedigree and was wondering if anybody had any idea of if there is another way? Do pet quality bengals get sold for less than show quality and if so roughly how much would they be? What about half breeds?
Thanks

Sam

Re: affordable bengals


Hello
I have an older boy that is available for rehoming
He is a two year old marble Bengal
He is one that i have bred but has now come back to me

As a responsible breeder i always take back cats that i have bred when the owners can no longer keep them
He is fully vaccinated and has had his little boys bits taken away

He loves people but can get a little over excited and give you a little nip
He needs to go to a home with no other cats and a garden that he can explore

To the right home he would be free

Hi Sam

As Bellakatz has mentioned, ex studs or queens can prob be picked up 'cheaper' or sometimes free.

However most Bengal Kittens will be around the prices you have been told, and I would be supsicious about people selling them for less - as they may not be registered and may actually be crosses and not real pedigrees.

Most reputable breeders would have paid quite a bit for their queen or stud (or stud fee) hence Bengals are normally a bit more expensive.

Re: affordable bengals


Hi Bellakatz - I would seriously be interested in your boy. Is there no way he could live with other cats?
