How To Choose Bengal Kittens

By Rebecca Allen


Cats can be one of the most gorgeous pets to have in the home. If you have made up your mind that you need one, it is best that you make this decision count. Bengal kittens are among the best is this is your first time owning a cat. The next important thing you may want to do is choose the right breeder.

A great way to find the right breeders is through seeking referrals from friends and neighbors. There must be people you know who own the same breed of cats that you want to buy. Ask them about the breeder that sold them their cats. If you cannot find reliable referrals, you may as well choose to visit online sites. Most breeders have informative websites that you can use.

While visiting a breeder to have a better look at their litter is a good rule of thumb, you also need to consider whether buying one or two cats will be the best decision for you. For those that spend most of their time out of the home, buying two kitties will be a good thing to do. You do not want your kitten to feel lonely when you are not home.

Do not feel obliged to buy two Bengals just because your breeder has promised you a great discount. You may want to look for another breed that will complement the personality of the latter. You must however make sure that you introduce these cats in your home at the same time. You do not want one to establish its territory before you introduce its partner.

Once you establish how many kittens you would wish to purchase, start calling some breeders in your area to determine their price range. You can then arrange appointments with the breeders. Break down your visits to the breeders so you can probably wash and change your clothing. This will help you avoid cases of cross infection among different litters and breeds.

While talking to your prospective breeder, you may also want to find out whether they will give you a purchase agreement. You want enough proof from the breeder that you have bought your cat from them. As if that is not enough, you should also find out if the breeder would accept the cat back in the event that someone in the home develops allergies with the cat.

If a breeder is not willing to take back the kitties they have sold, they should at least commit to helping you find another home near you that can take in the cat. You do not want to be stuck with a cat that you have a problem keeping. The next thing you may want to find out is whether the breeder will give you a health guarantee for the kitten you purchase from them.

When meeting a potential kitten, be sure that they are healthy and alert. Play with the cat to see how they react. Confirm that the breeder has run tests for various diseases. Do not feel rushed into making a decision.
