Holly's online book..... Read about Bengal Cats as I share my 20 plus years of knowledge and  experience Raising, Breeding, Showing and Selling Bengal Kittens.

Among the first questions everyone asks is

What's it gonna cost me??

2011...     I sell pet kittens for $1200. to $3000. I sell  show / breeding kittens for $4000. Pet price still includes spay before the kitten leaves  If you are patient you can get a nice pet from me for $1200. to $1500. During times when I have more kittens available I will price a few in this lower range. Show quality pets are  $2500 to $3000    It is rare for me to have a pet kitten priced as low as $900. These would be kittens that are getting older or are a less sought after pattern or coloration such as a marble.  MY Pet  Price includes spay or neuter before the kitten leaves for your home, Vaccinations up to date and a written guarantee that your kitten is healthy and happy.   Two year genetic health guarantee. When you figure in the cost of spay or neuter and that you are getting a Well Socialized kitten that does not need to be treated for ring-worm, upper respiratory infections, worms, ear mites, fleas or other ailments, you can see that I am offering you a good price.... Wide Clean Eyes, Clean Ears and Confident Playful expression with good clear color and intense contrast of pattern, always some rosetting on short soft coats.    Bengal Kittens from Trendar... My Veterinarian does Spay  as early as 8 weeks old. In over 18 years, I have not had a problem with early surgery. Occasionally, as the kittens get to be over 4 months old and are not sold, I will lower their price. Maybe I should not tell people this, but if they want to wait to choose a kitten that remains, and may better fit your budget, that works for both of us :-) But remember, the kittens that remain may be ones with least desirable color or pattern ....   OR they may be ones that I have held back to evaluate for breeding and showing! I may later decide the kitten did not mature to expectations. In this later case the kitten will still command a higher price.   If you realize that the best quality is always the highest price, and are comfortable with that, then you may pick out the kitten that YOU think is the best.  Show and pet quality kittens may be found in most litter..... click to learn more about kitten evaluation When you decide how much your budget will allow I can suggest a few kittens in that price range. Usually the kittens need to be at least 3 weeks old to set a first price.  The Bengals change so much in the first few weeks and months that the price can change too. Once I tell you a price on a particular kitten, and you send a contract and deposit, I will not raise that price for you. If you do not send a deposit, and the kitten improves, the price changes accordingly. With my many years of experience, I can evaluate pattern and color fairly well at a few days old. Contrast, coat quality and conformation change a lot in the first 5 to 6 months of age. Bengals have subtle coloring changes with the seasons, through out their life. You can find cheaper priced Kittens, like these ....  I found at an online auction site.  ? the difference?  The spots are very small and uniform in size, they are also for the most part vertically aligned, like broken tabby stripes. The colors are muted, not vividly contrasting.... These could be Ocicat or Egyptian Mau kittens just as easily as poor quality Bengals.   25 years ago most Bengal kittens looked like this.  Not Today!  Reputable breeders have worked hard at upgrading the quality and patterns of their Bengal Kittens and the breed as a whole.  ALL Trendar Kittens have rosettes of some type, size, color  or shape.       generally speaking the larger the rosettes the higher the price     If you search around for low cost Bengal Kittens....  PLEASE look closely at the eyes and ears and nose and under the tail.  Check for fleas, flea dander (like little coffee grounds on the skin)  Check for any places that have hair missing... could it be ringworm?    You do NOT want to buy  a kitten that looks sick.   also be sure the kitten is well socialized, handled  a LOT every day.... and exposed to many sights and sounds.           My kittens are inside my home, with sounds of the kitchen and music...  They meet other cats and even sometimes kids :-)   We play with the kittens every day! I will ship my kittens when weather permits. Shipping within the United States is usually $350. including Priority Air Fair, shipping crate and Vet. health certificate. Your kitten arrives with TICA registration paper,   health records, and a supply of food that he is currently eating. Again, all pets are spayed or neutered before leaving for their new homes. Shipping is quite safe, but it is not fun for anyone.  Shipping is done as a courtesy. Many hours can be spent to secure a schedule. Unlike the thought that you call once and they give you the correct info, this is NOT the way it works.  Try it :-) call 3 times then compare what you have been told...  After repeated reconfirmation at the 800# and the airport,  occasionally shipping still does not happen as planned. It takes time and gas for me to get to the airport.  My preferred vet is 45 minutes drive each way to get your shipping Health Certificate... I will worry about the flights until the kitten arrives safely at it's destination.  In 24 years I have never had a kitten lost or injured, but I have had delayed flights, missed flights and very concerned customers. I usually ship from a small airport, I know my kittens get special handling from employees here. This small airport has commuter plains to connect to larger plains. I am sorry but I must pass on this extra cost to you. After you have enjoyed the volumes of info on my 40 page web site please write and ask any other questions, I am more than happy to help you, now and after you purchase a sweet beautiful unique Trendar Bengal kitten.
