Mystic Mable Bengal Cats: May 2018

Once upon a time many years ago I lived on a beautiful 40-ace farm where I had an amazing horse rescue, puppy rescue along with my purebred registered German Sheppard Dog and Persian Cat breeding program. At that time in that magical rural place I allowed clients to come to my home to choose the pet of their dreams. My animals were all highly socialized, well cared for, clean, perfect really and my facility was a vet A-Plus rated farm-rescue. That was then this is now. What happened even in the past to make me think the way I do right now?
Well, I remember the man who came one day with his children claiming he just wanted a pet for his kids. He picked out an adorable rescued puppy and adopted her. However, a few weeks later I woke up one morning to find the man in my yard, dumping off the puppy he'd adopted and looking over some of my finest purebred puppies. I went out and asked him what was up. I thought maybe he decided he actually wanted a purebred; however, what I learned is that he'd concluded the rescue pup wasn't going to grow up to be big enough. He wanted a big dog, a purebred dog, and he wanted it, felt fully entitled to it, at the adoption price of $50 he had spent to get the cute little rescue pup. He was actually enraged when I refused to let him take one of my purebred German Shepherds - dogs whose parents were literally imported from Germany at great cost.
In my years living in that rural paradise, I had three horses stolen (one that was double registered), I nearly lost one of my expensive purebred puppies, and I had my home broken into one afternoon while I was away at the store buying groceries, which led to someone stealing several of my purebred Persian cats, including a stunning pregnant show quality queen. All of my cattery owner friends and contacts had either known someone who had at some point had their cattery broken into or they'd experienced such horrific theft and loss of valuable, as well as much loved, cats themselves.
Not everyone out there in the world is a good honest person. This is one of the hardest lessons to learn in the animal business. For this reason, as well as the avoidance of diseases brought in on clothing and hands, my little cattery is a closed cattery. I try my best to post photos and videos of my cats and where they live. My cats are all 100% indoor animals. They are treated as pets. They are all blood tested negative for the major feline diseases (listed within this Bllog). I do not earn the money I need to live through my cats. I work long hours to take care of myself and my cats. I hope adopters and buyers can understand. If you are interested in a kitten, at this point, I am willing to meet you in a public place. Maybe some day I'll install a great security system or retire from work or both and once again have an open door cattery. I do miss meeting all kinds of wonderful people, having them sit on my couch and meet all of my kitties. I miss that a lot, yet to me, right now, it is not worth the risk.
