Whats the Difference?
Evaluating the quality of a bengal for pricing purposes is based heavily on appearance.
By no means, is the "quality" of the kitten an indicator of purrsonality.
We consider all of our kittens Natures Materpieces and work very hard to ensure that each one
receives lots of love and attention, so that he/she is a happy, healthy, well socialized Bengal ready to
join your family. The price ranges vary because each Bengal kitten is unique and evaluated on an
individual basis.
Pet Bengals
Pet quality bengals are those that exhibit qualities that would be considered undesirable in a breeding
program. Many times these are minor things that only experienced breeders would notice. For instance,
a tail that is too long or too thin, ears that are too tall, poor coat clarity or vertical flow of the pattern....
Breeder Quality Bengals
Breeder quality Bengals are kittens/cats that are a good solid representations
of the Bengal breed that display many desirable qualities which would benefit a Bengal breeding program.
Show Quality Bengals
A kitten/cat that epitomizes the Bengal.
They meet the TICA official standards of the Bengal breed as closely as possible. They are excellent
representations of the Bengal breed, therefore, these kittens would do very well in a show ring.
These kittens/cats would be a valuable asset to a breeding program and will enhance future generations
of the Bengal breed.
We do not set prices on our kittens until they are approximately 6-8 weeks old.
During their early weeks bengal kittens change quite a bit as they grow, develop,
and go through their “ugly fuzzies”. Each bengal kitten is evaluated on an individual basis
during this time and priced accordingly.

Purchase Info
With a Temptation Bengal you get much more than a kitten,
you get a cherished part of our family. We love our kittens and are committed to placing our
bengals with those who will provide a lifetime of love and care...
Kittens are ready for their new home at 10-12 weeks old.
We feel it is important to wait the few extra weeks so that the kittens can wean naturally
from Mom at their own pace. This way Mom, along with their littermates,
can teach them good grooming habits, good litter habits, how to interact and play with other kittens.
During this time, the kittens are socialized with our family, in our home. They begin to naturally explore with
confidence and a sense of "independence". All kittens benefit from consistency and familiarity
when young, a familiar environment encourages the development of good habits and social behaviors.
This makes for a less stressful transition for the kitten from our home to yours.

PLEASE READ MY KITTEN CONTRACT
We take the responsibility of placing each of our bengal kittens in caring homes that
will provide a happy, healthy environment very seriously, so please be prepared to tell me a
little about yourself, your family, & your home.
Spay/Neuter Agreement
The spay/neuter agreemeent is an addendum to our contract which states
that any kitten sold as a pet MUST be spayed/neutered before he/she reaches 7 months old at the buyers expense.
This is a priority for behavioral, health, and contractual reasons. As kittens reach adolescence,
and they begin to mature, both males and females will begin to engage in "nondesirable habits" such as
"marking" territory outside of their litter box (like on your couch, or in a corner), attempting
to get out to find a mate, and meowing A LOT to attract one.
This can be a stressful experience and unhealthy for for both kitty and owner.
Per my contract, the TICA registration paperwork and a copy of the pedigree
will only be provided to the buyer after appropriate proof of spay/neuter is provided to Temptation Bengals.

Shipping Info
Due to the rapidly rising costs of fuel, the airlines are increasing their shipping fees.
Therefore the shipping charge will be calculated at the time of sale. The shipping fee will
include the cost of the pet crate, plus $50 for the health certificate, added to the airline's
shipping fee. As of April 2008 the charge would be approx $300 - $350
Kittens are usually ready to fly between the ages of 10-12 weeks
as long as they are strong, eating independently, and taking care of themselves.
We try to get the shortest flight possible so there is minimal stress.
