From a future plan
to the right kitten
Interested in one of these litters? Tell us which pairing you have in mind. We take time to understand your household and discuss a suitable match before you reserve a specific kitten.
Enquire and share your preferences
Tell us where you live, your preferred timing and any colour, pattern or sex preferences. Share a little about your household and how flexible you can be. Joining the waiting list is free.
Discuss a suitable match
We speak with prospective buyers about their home and expectations. We consider list order, family suitability, your preferences and each kitten’s temperament when discussing a match.
Reserve a specific kitten
Before you reserve, we share the kitten’s details, photos or videos, parent information, health-testing summary, price and expected handover timing. The AUD $500 deposit applies to that specific kitten.
Keep in touch as plans develop
We provide photos, videos and regular progress updates, with live video calls by arrangement. A mating may not result in pregnancy, dates can change and a litter may not include your preferred match. We will discuss the options with you.
A waiting-list place does not guarantee a kitten, a particular colour or a date.
Prices and reservation terms
- Waiting list
- Free to join. No specific kitten or timing is guaranteed.
- Kitten price
- AUD $2,500–$3,500. Pricing depends on pet versus breeding rights. Breeding rights are available only for selected kittens.
- Reservation deposit
- AUD $500 for a specific kitten, deducted from the purchase price. The remaining balance is due before collection or delivery.
- If you cancel a standard reservation
- The AUD $500 deposit is retained. Additional purchase payments are refunded within seven days of cancellation or refund agreement.
- If we cannot supply your reserved kitten
- For reasons outside your control, you may choose a full refund including the deposit, or transfer all payments to another suitable kitten.
These are our ordinary kitten arrangements. Separate terms can apply to transferred retired-cat payments. We confirm the specific kitten and payment details in writing, and every buyer signs a purchase agreement before handover.

Parent health screening
Our adult breeding cats receive HCM heart screening and DNA testing for PKDef, PRA-b and SMA. HCM screening follows veterinary recommendations; DNA testing is repeated when necessary.
We consider each cat’s results, veterinary advice and overall health in breeding decisions. Screening is not a promise that a kitten will never develop a health condition.
Before reservation, buyers receive a summary of the parents’ testing. Ask about the dates and findings relevant to the particular pairing; parent-specific test results are not published on this page.
Veterinary care and documents
- Veterinary examination and clearance before leaving
- First and second vaccinations, worming and flea treatment
- Microchipping and transfer of registration
- Desexing before handover for pet kittens
- Care records, FCCV pedigree and registration documents
- A written purchase agreement and health guarantee
- Familiar food, toys, a scented blanket and settling-in guidance
Pedigree, registration and early socialisation
Our approach draws on more than seven years’ experience with Bengals, including four years breeding. FCCV membership is held under our breeder’s personal name. We supply official FCCV pedigree and registration documents to kitten purchasers.
Our kittens grow up inside our family home with children, adults and resident cats. They experience gentle handling, play, enrichment and everyday household routines, plus introductions to carriers, brushing, scratching surfaces and litter trays.
Our written lifetime health guarantee addresses congenital or hereditary conditions. It provides a case-by-case contribution towards veterinary expenses, supported by a written veterinary diagnosis and relevant test results. It is not an automatic promise to reimburse every veterinary expense. Ongoing owner advice and support are available.
Collection and
interstate transport
From our home in North Melbourne to yours, with arrangements agreed around the individual kitten.
- When kittens leave
- Usually at around 12 weeks, after a veterinary examination and clearance. If a kitten is not medically cleared, we arrange care and delay handover.
- Local collection
- Collection by appointment and personally arranged delivery are available. We do not offer visits or meet-and-greets before collection.
- Interstate homes
- Interstate kitten delivery is generally available by prior arrangement. Transport costs are additional and paid by the buyer. Share your town and state so we can discuss the options.
- Meeting your kitten remotely
- We share photographs, videos and progress updates. Live video calls are available by arrangement.
Before you enquire:
is a Bengal right for your home?
Bengals are active, curious and socially engaged cats. Plan for daily interaction, play, climbing space and mental enrichment, alongside the ongoing cost and responsibility of care.
Our kittens must live indoors, with outdoor access only in secure enclosures or enclosed gardens. Unrestricted roaming is not suitable. Tell us about your children, resident pets and daily routine so we can discuss a kitten’s individual needs.
Planning for a Bengal kitten?
Answers to the practical questions about future litters, the waiting list and bringing your kitten home.
Are planned Bengal litters guaranteed?
No. A planned pairing does not confirm pregnancy or guarantee a litter. Birth timing, litter size and the kittens available can change. We will discuss confirmed information with you before any reservation.
How do I know whether a pregnancy is confirmed?
Ask us for the latest pregnancy update for the particular pairing. Breeding is confirmed for Sir Elisey and Lady Holly, with kittens expected in late October 2026. Breeding confirmation and pregnancy confirmation are different stages; expected arrival dates remain estimates.
When can an upcoming kitten go to its new home?
Our kittens usually leave at around 12 weeks. Each kitten needs a veterinary examination and clearance before collection or delivery. If clearance is delayed, we arrange the necessary care and postpone handover.
Can I request a particular colour, pattern or sex?
Yes. Tell us your preferences and how flexible you are. Our programme includes brown and silver spotted/rosetted Bengals, snow Bengals (lynx, mink and sepia), and marble patterns. These are not all available in every litter, and preferences are not guarantees.
What happens if no kitten matches my preferences?
We will discuss whether a future litter may be a better option. There is no charge to join the ordinary waiting list, and no deposit is due until you reserve a specific kitten. We cannot promise a match or a waiting time.
Does joining the waitlist reserve a kitten?
No. Waiting-list priority considers both list order and family suitability. We discuss a particular kitten with you before a reservation. The AUD $500 deposit is then deducted from the purchase price; the reservation terms explain cancellation and breeder-unable-to-supply arrangements.
Can kittens go to interstate homes?
Interstate kitten delivery is generally available by prior arrangement, with transport costs paid by the buyer in addition to the kitten price. Tell us your location so we can discuss suitable arrangements and the kitten’s readiness.
Tell us about your future Bengal
Tell us which litter you’re interested in, your preferred timing and a little about your home. We’ll discuss the latest litter updates and whether a kitten may be a suitable match.
No payment is required to enquire. Our ordinary waiting list is free, and sending this form does not reserve a kitten or subscribe you to a mailing list.
