🐾 Helping Families in New York Find Their Perfect Bengal Kitten
We have been breeding Bengal kittens since 2008, and our kittens have always been raised right in our home with our children. They get handled, played with, talked to, carried around, and completely spoiled from the very beginning. That daily interaction really does make a difference. It helps our kittens grow into confident, outgoing little Bengals that are comfortable being part of a busy family.
Many families throughout New York choose us because they want a Bengal breeder with years of experience who puts health and temperament first. Our adult breeding cats are HCM scanned and genetically tested for PRA-b and PKDef, and every kitten goes home with our 5-year health guarantee. We also attend cat shows and have brought in beautiful bloodlines from around the world over the years, which has helped us maintain healthy, diverse genetics while producing the gorgeous Bengal look we love.
We specialize in brown Bengals as well as snow Bengal kittens, and our breeding cats come from beautiful champion bloodlines. But as much as I love a gorgeous Bengal, personality is just as important to me. I want our kittens to be sweet, social, playful, and ready to become part of someone's family. We post tons of videos on our YouTube channel, so you can actually watch our kittens grow up, play with us, and see their personalities develop.
You can also read our Client Reviews to hear from families who have chosen our Bengal cattery and brought home one of our kittens over the years.

🐾 Bringing Your New Bengal Kitten Home in New York
We are located in New Orleans, but getting one of our Bengal kittens home to New York is actually pretty easy. I always tell families that finding the right breeder is much more important than finding the closest breeder. How your kitten is raised, cared for, and socialized during those first few months will stay with them long after the trip home is over.
✈️ Kitten Delivery to New York
Many of our New York families choose to have their kitten delivered with our trusted flight nanny. Your Bengal kitten flies safely in the cabin and stays with the flight nanny the entire trip, never in cargo. Once they arrive in New York, the flight nanny will meet you right at the airport with your kitten. It’s an easy and safe way to get your new baby home without having to travel to us.
🚗 ✈️ Pick Up Your Bengal Kitten
You’re always welcome to drive or fly in and pick up your kitten yourself! Make a little trip out of it—see our beautiful city, take a tour, enjoy some amazing food, or grab a few beignets before heading home with your new baby. If you’re flying, we can meet you at the airport with your kitten before your flight home.
🐾 What Makes Bengal Cats So Unique?
There's a reason so many people become lifelong Bengal enthusiasts after bringing one home. Their stunning appearance may catch your attention at first, but it's their engaging personalities and strong bonds with their families that truly make them unforgettable companions.
Bengal cats are known for being curious, intelligent, and full of energy. They enjoy interactive play, learning new things, and finding ways to be involved in whatever their favorite people are doing. Whether they're following you from room to room, helping with household chores, or greeting you at the door, Bengals are rarely content to simply sit on the sidelines and watch life go by.
One of the things that makes the breed so special is the variety of personalities you can find within a litter. Some kittens are outgoing and adventurous, while others are more laid-back and affectionate. Watching each kitten develop its own unique temperament is one of the most rewarding parts of raising Bengals.
Their eye-catching rosettes, athletic build, and shimmering coats covered in glitter certainly make them stand out, but it's their intelligence, affection, and larger-than-life personalities that keep Bengal owners falling in love with the breed year after year.
🐾 Are Bengal Cats Legal to Own in New York?
Bengal cats are legal to own in New York State when they meet certain requirements. New York law allows domestic-cat hybrids that are registered with TICA or ACFA and are at least five generations removed from any wild felid ancestor. Our kittens are F5 or later-generation Bengals (SBT) and are TICA registered, which meets those state requirements.
New York City has its own rules and is an important exception. The NYC Health Code prohibits keeping wild-cat/domestic-cat hybrids or cross-breeds within the city. Unlike the New York State rule, the NYC provision does not provide an exception based on a Bengal being F5 or later generation. Because of that, we do not place Bengal kittens in New York City.
For families elsewhere in New York, our later-generation Bengals meet the state requirements described above. However, we still recommend checking any local city or county rules, along with lease, landlord, or HOA restrictions, before reserving a kitten because local requirements and private housing rules can be different.
If you'd like to learn more about what F5, SBT, and later-generation Bengals mean, you can read our page about Bengal generations and their Asian Leopard Cat ancestry.
🐾 Do Bengal Cats Shed?
Yes, Bengal cats do shed, but its drastically less than other cat breeds. Their coat is short, incredibly soft, and lies close to the body, so you aren't dealing with clouds of loose fur all over the house. Of course, every cat is different, and you may notice a little more shedding at certain times of the year, but Bengals are so easy when it comes to coat care.
One of the things I love about the Bengal cat coat is how little maintenance it needs to stay beautiful. You don't have to brush them, and you really don't even have to bathe them unless they manage to get into something that would make them dirty. They never require professional grooming. Their sleek coat is one of the features that gives them such a distinctive look. You can learn more about their coat, patterns, and colors on our Bengal Colors and Patterns page.
