Bengal Cats Canada

You're looking for Bengal cat breeders in Canada. A general search will throw up some individual breeders and some directories.

UPDATE: I SUSPECT THAT ALL THESE BREEDERS HAVE RETIRED AS THIS PAGE WAS WRITTEN ABOUT TEN YEARS AGO.

This page is a nice example of a directory of Bengal cat breeders on one page.

The problem is that you will not know who the good ones are. There is no ranking system that might have been organised by the cat associations. You will have to select one that is as close as possible to you and go visit it! Helmi Flick the famous cat photographer says that it is the only way to buy a purebred cat from a breeder. I'd ask questions about genetic diseases in Bengal cats. And check out the facilities. Let the cat pick you.

Jungle Jem have a nice clean and simple website. They are located at #1 6500 15 Ave SW, Salmon Arm BC, Canada V1E 1R5.

I like the fact that they give an exact address - shows confidence. The Google map above goes right to the street.

Another sensible Bengal cat breeder who I would trust based on what they say on their website is WildExpressions.ca. They require a $250 deposit and of course you buy a cat companion (a pet) not a breeding cat (unless you contract for that and pay a lot more).

They are a small breeder (most are) based in Ontario and operate from 891 Old Highway 2, RR#2 Trenton. This is a map:

The International Cat Association have a nice list of Bengal cat breeders in Canada on this page by the way.
