Quality Bengal Kittens

updated August 2022

Kitten Pricing

• Our kitten price is $2200.
• For previous customers, the price is $2000.
• If you purchase two kittens at once, the price is $2000 per kitten.

The $500 Waitlist fee goes towards the purchase price of a kitten. The Waitlist payment is a down payment toward the price of your kitten. The purpose of the Waitlist payment is to provide others with an accurate count of how many kittens must be born before they will get to choose a kitten and to provide us with an accurate count of how many kittens we have homes for.  In order to keep the list accurate, the Waitlist payment serves as your pledge to purchase a kitten; it is not refundable.

Disclaimer

• We may hold back up to 25% of our kittens for breeding purposes.  Most of these kittens are female. No matter what the numbers say, the female list moves more slowly.
• If we owe a person a replacement kitten, we reserve the right to provide that replacement ahead of those on the Waitlist.
• We found it impossible to accurately predict the speed at which people will be offered a kitten.  It varies greatly based on what you desire, what is desired by the people above you on the list, and what kittens are born.

Waitlist

Below you will find our Pet Waitlist. Names are displayed by first and last initial and are prioritized in the order in which the Waitlist Payment was received. ​The Waitlist includes people who, for reasons such as bad timing, life changes, etc., do not know when they will be ready for a kitten, but they will give us six months' notice. It would be best if you do not calculate these people into your estimated wait time.  Also, notice some people are waiting on something specific and have passed on previously available kittens. After each Kitten Selection Weekend, you should check the Waitlist for changes above you. 

Once the Selected Kitten Payment is received, a placement will be removed. The purpose of disclosing the information on this list is to understand how many people are ahead of you and what sort of kittens or circumstances they are waiting on which will allow you to make an informed decision about whether you would like to join the waitlist or not. 

What is the expected wait time?  The fewer restrictions you have on what you want, the faster you will bring home a kitten.  We could send you home with a kitten in as soon as a few months.  This would likely be a brown spotted/rosetted male kitten as that is what we offer most frequently.  If you want a snow, the wait could be a year or longer due to the number of people waiting for snows and the inconsistency in when we get snow kittens.  If you want a marble Bengal, the estimate is harder to determine because we get fewer of them.

Status Key
6MN = These people will provide a six-month notification before being ready for a kitten. It would be best not to consider these people picking ahead of you.
P = Has been offered a kitten and has passed. He/she will continue to pass until specific preferences are met.
AW = Actively waiting.  Has not been offered kittens.
NR = This person was sent an invitation to a Kitten Selection Weekend and didn't respond.  If these people continue not to respond they will be removed from the list at the end of the calendar year.
M=male, F=female

Note: Gender must be decided prior to joining our list because the speed at which we offer females is slower than the speed at which we offer males. Even if a note says the person is flexible on gender, they will not be offered the other gender unless all people waiting on that gender have passed.  

People who join the list TODAY for a brown spotted/rosetted kitten should expect to bring one home from October through December 2022. 

We do have snow males to offer for late October/November.

People Actively Waiting - These plan to pick a kitten when one that meets their preferences is offered. 

Six-Months Notice - Life happens.  These people had a change of circumstance that caused the postponement of bringing a kitten into their lives. They maintain consistent communication. They will give six-months notice prior to being ready for a kitten.  At that point in time, they will be placed back on the list based on their original date of joining the list with a note that states when they are able to choose (six months after their date of contact).
