1. Bengal Cat
The Bengal Cat is a breed of cat that has a wild look. The Bengal cat is descended from the Leopard, and a house pet should be no less than 4 generations from the Leopard. They are reputed to be docile, friendly and lovable just like other domestic cats.
They are not scared of water, love swimming and love being part of the family. The Bengal cats costs between 1,000 USD and 25,000 USD. Wow! A Bengal can cost more than my first house did! But that was a long time ago…:)
Now, before you take out a mortgage on your house to buy one of these cats, there is a way you can get them for a lot less. This article is about how to get those super-expensive Bengal cats for less, but it would apply to any of the expensive breeds.
That’s so very cute
I like my tiger kitty just fine
The best breed is ‘shelter’ and they are much cheaper!☺
Helen, I whole-heartedly agree!
I agree.
One of my adopted shelter kittens is a purebred Russian Blue.
The most expensive kitties I’ve ever had have been feral, lost/abandoned or shelter adopted special needs kitties. Two of them are in my lap as I post this. My current crop (I volunteer in a kitten nursery, so I get “sneak previews” of the more difficult ones to get adopted) of seven range are four months, two six month olds, one 22 months, one almost 2 year old, and two sisters who are 33 months old. I have two shy/fearful sisters who were 4th of July orphans, a congenital heart defect kitty who wasn’t expected to survive to three months of age (her second birthday will be in a couple of weeks 😀 <3 ), a starvation/malnourished/chronic GI issues Russian Blue kitten and her seemingly well adjusted buddy (except for his need to live up my nostril and be petted 24/7) all from the kitten nursery, plus a former feral who is exceptionally shy and food passive (not a good thing to be as a feral in a colony), and my most recent expensive "free" kitten, a little Calico girl I found a month ago in a Home Depot parking lot as an undersized 11 week old.
The vet bills can run up, and a couple of times, I didn't eat so they could, but they're worth every penny and more. When I come home, I have seven pairs of adoring eyes and seven warm, soft bodies come up to me wanting to be held and petted. They are among the most loving and affectionate cats I've ever known.
Good for you Michael Mitchell! Also good to know you really can get expensive/purebred kittens at the shelters!!
Those are some lucky kitties to have you Michael! And that definitely shines a different light on what we would call an expensive cat! Plus, I’m laughing about the one that wants to “live up [your] nostril” – I used to have a dog like that (miss you Pepperoni). She slept not just on my bed, but with her head on the pillow, next to me, and I used to say that if she could, she would climb into my mouth to get closer. LOL. She was a real cuddle-bug. Bless your heart for taking in your special needs kitties <3
Yup
Who else loves cute kittens
totally correct 🙂
who else loves this ?
Kittens Whiskers Yes you can. I have a beautiful cat that ‘rescued’ me from a local shelter.
“A maine coon will set you back 1,000 dollars” – and worth every pennie!
