Pricing:
Bengal kitten price will be determined on an individual basis generally by 10 weeks old. Occasionally, Bengal kittens will be evaluated beyond 10 weeks to further asses their growth and development and determine if they will be held to stay in the breeding program. Pricing is determined by how closely the Bengal kitten conforms to the Bengal breed standard. Bengal kittens will start at $1850 and up. If two Bengal kittens are purchased at the same time, I give 10% off the second Bengal kitten (if there is a price difference, the discount will be applied to the lower priced bengal kitten). The discount is not applicable to already discounted Bengal kittens/cats.
I post pictures of Bengal kittens prior to their availability. These kittens that are under 10 weeks old will be listed as under evaluation. Under evaluation means I’m still watching their growth and development and determining how closely they fit the Bengal Cat breed standard. I occasionally will evaluate a bengal kitten longer than 10 weeks if the kitten looks to be of Bengal Cat breed standard and will be of benefit to continuing my breeding program. It is essential I do this to continue toward a high standard and bettering the Bengal Cat breed. Once the kittens are evaluated and priced I will move them to the waitlisted kitten category for those who have advanced deposits placed to choose from in the order the deposits have been received. Advanced depositors can either choose from one of the available waitlisted kittens when their turn comes up or they may “pass” to a future litter if they are waiting for a specific color, gender, etc. Once all of those on the waitlist have either chosen or passed, if there are remaining bengal kittens, they will then move to the general available list. Kittens that have been chosen and deposited for will be listed as reserved and are not available.
I only sell breeding bengal cats to established registered breeders that I already know or established breeders that have a recommendation from breeders I already know.

Deposit Agreement:
A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required to hold a place on the waitlist and/or to reserve an available bengal cat/kitten. Before a deposit is submitted, you must fill out the kitten questionnaire and receive approval for deposit submission. A specific kitten cannot be held for someone without a deposit in place.
The picking order of kittens is determined by the order the deposits are received. Those on the waitlist will be notified as the kittens are released. Generally, kittens are released to the waitlist when they are 10 weeks old.
The first person on the waitlist will be given up to 48 hours to either choose from the available waitlisted kittens or to forfeit their pick and pass to a future litter. It is necessary to have a time limit to keep the process moving.
Once the first person makes their decision, the process will continue—in waitlist order and with the 48 hour time limit—until every available kitten in the litter has been claimed or no more people remain on the waitlist. If there are still kittens available once the waitlist is fulfilled, the kittens will then be moved to the general “available kitten” list.
In the interests of maintaining a successful Bengal program, I reserve the right to hold kittens under evaluation for an extended period of time. If I determine the kitten will not remain in my program, it will be released back to the available waitlist or “available kitten” list.
The $250 deposit is applied to the total cat/ kitten cost.
Kittens will usually be ready to go to their new homes between 16-18 weeks old. They will come with their first two HCPCh vaccines, a rabies vaccine, routine parasite control, a microchip, and will be spayed or neutered.
Retired adult cats are spayed or neutered and will come with up-to-date vaccines, routine parasite control, and a microchip.
Deposits are accepted via Venmo, ApplePay or Zelle.
Pawsabilities Bengal Cats reserves the right to cancel any reservation. Should a cancellation by Pawsibilities Bengal Cats prove necessary, the deposit will be returned.
