This is for Charles Adams:
Unfortunately, you are beginning to learn by your mistake that breeding
animals, whether cats, dogs, birds or any other species can be more
costly than it's worth. You state that you don't want a pet cat and
never did. I am assuming that the Bengal you have is just a
potential source of money and that's what you had in mind in the first
place. Your poor cat is definitely not happy without being able to
breed. He won't be happy ever because he will have to be caged and bred many
times in his life before he is of no more use in
breeding. Right now, if you are really ethical and want to do best by
your male cat, you should get him neutered and sell him as a pet quality
Bengal. Papers or not, he's a living being with feelings just like you and I
have. As for the little female, she needs to be retested. She
also needs to be spayed. If she still tests positive for FeLv, you need to
find a rescue that will take her. Or advertise for an adopter who
wants to have her as an only cat or companion to a small dog. You can
charge an adoption fee.
I noticed that your email address is Texas Gold Buyers. I assume that
you buy gold and re-sell it. That's a good business to be in. Please
stay out of the animal breeding business from now on and stick to gold,
silver and any other inanimate objects that people will purchase. Good
luck to you and the cats.

Hello Everyone,
It's been about 3 weeks now and still trying to clean up a very bad
mistake. Here's my story! I have a beautiful male Bengal Cat name Buddy Buck
who is registered and I have papers and pedigree back 8 generations. I want to
breed him and just have had no luck finding a cat I could afford. I went into
my local vet's office which happens to be my vet as well and asked if they knew
anyone who possibly had a female Bengal cat that I could breed my cat with. The
lady at the front desk told me she did and gave me the girl's first name and
phone number. All I had was the name Jennifer. I called and to my surprise she
just happened to have a 9 month old Snow Marble Bengal. I told her I was very
interested and wanted to see the cat.
She didn't come by that night but did call the next day and I gave her
directions to my house. I showed her my male who by the way is behind locked
doors and current on all of his shots. I let her know my intentions was to
breed the two cats. She had two cats in a carrier and showed my what I was told
was the mother and daughter. The mother was beautiful but a little thin but had
excellent markings. Then out came the cat I was supposed to be buying. This cat
was eye knocking beautiful and had excellent markings as well plus beautiful
blue eyes. I knew right there I wanted the cat. I told her I was looking to
breed out my male and we agreed to let her breed two times with my male and I
gave her $300.00. We spoke a bit more and I was just so happy to have just made
a deal on such a beautiful cat.
As we spoke I gave her the money and I asked for the shot records. She
told me she would go by the vet's and pick up a copy and drop it off. I called
her later and asked what kind of food she had been feeding and she told me back
to the wild. I went by to pick up some. I got home and there were not shot
records dropped off as she told me she would. I called and no answer. I sent
over a text and again no answer. I sat down to fill out the paper work and then
I was shocked. I noticed the paperwork was for a cat 2 years old. I called
again and text and again no reply. This went on for another day and a half then
I sent over a text message telling her the next call was going to be to the
Sheriff's Office. This time I got a reply telling me to chill her daughter had
got into an accident. Call me crazy but her daughter was about 4 or 5 years old
and she was only 24 so I knew something was not right.
I called the Vet and made an appointment for Saturday morning. I took her
in. This cat had been staying indoors in a cage and my male is outside in his
pen. I got back horrible news. The cat came back FeLV positive. I sent over a
text message informing this little piece of trash of the outcome and no
response. I waited 15 minutes and sent another message informing her I wanted
another cat tested or my money back but preferred another cat. Again no
response. I called the Sheriff's office and turned her in. I was knocked down
to hear was I was told. I was not the first person to complain on her. I looked
around and found another woman who had purchased a set of blue great danes and
the both had Parvo and were very sick. I found another person and she had
bought a puppy that had died after a few day. I was told to run her name on
rippedoff.com and I did. I called the Animal Shelter in El Campo, Texas and
they knew of her by the game. I called the
SPCA and they knew she had been turned in multiple times for selling sick
animals.
I went back to the Vet and asked for her address and they couldn't give it
to me. I found that no one I spoke with had it. I started digging around
getting bits and pieces of information and was getting close to where she
lived. I then found a break. I called the Animal Cruelty department of SPCA in
Houston and was given the name of someone who may have been to her location. I
called her and she didn't have the address but told me about where is was. I
had to make several trips but found this piece of craps home. I got the address
and called back to the SPCA. I am out time, money, and my poor little boy is
driving me crazy wanting to breed. I am in dire need of a female Bengal and
can't sell this cat as she is sick. I don't want an inside pet cat nor have I
ever. I am taking good care of her and continue to feed her. I feel she has
been mistreated and is very scared. She is the most beautiful cat I have ever
seen just not a cat for me. I don't
know what to do at this point so maybe someone can help me sort this out. Any
feedback would and will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Charles.
