Our Cattery Philosophy and Mission Statement.

The Bengal Breed of Cat has unique and desirable personality traits compared to other breeds of Domestic Cats. At Santa Fe Bengal Cattery, our Kittens and Cats are very well-socialized, have sweet temperaments, and incredible beauty from our Championship blood lines. As responsible breeders, we believe in quality, not quantity, in our Breeding Programs. We have only one or two litters at a time; this way we can give our Kittens the needed attention to ensure that they will be "Distinctive Lap Leopards." We work very hard at nurturing our Bengals' unique qualities. We also give them top quality care (food, litter, and lots of attention) and superb, always clean, habitats. It's simple... Our Mission is to be the Best!

At Santa Fe Bengal Cattery, we take the time to help the new owner-to-be to select the Kitten or Cat that is right for them. We breed Bengals because we love them and want to have young Kittens in our home. We also want to better the Bengal breed by adhering to a focused breeding program. Our Cattery also sells our Retired Cats at an "at cost" price to make sure that they are able to live as House Cats for most of their lives. This also ensures that Santa Fe Bengal Cattery can continue to progress it's breeding program and continue to provide top quality Bengal Kittens. The costs of running a Cattery are high, when you provide proper habitats, top quality food, litter, and health care, not to mention, cat toys, Cattery association fees, Magazine publications, and purchasing top quality Cats for our breeding stock, etc, etc. The love that we give our cats is free! First and foremost, the main reason that we breed Bengal Cats is very simply that we love them... and they love us. One or two Cats are simple to care for... a dedicated, proper Cattery is a different matter. And it matters to us that our cats have the best and are the best.
