I was intrigued
by Bengal cats from the first time I ever heard of them. I was enchanted by
their glittering, soft coats, beautiful markings and vibrant "purrsonalites"!
After finding out all I could about the breed, I finally
took the plunge & bought Trucklebed Akasha. She is an aoc snow spotted
Bengal.
Akasha won my heart at first glance! The
sheer luxury of stroking her gossamer soft coat and watching her joyously
bound about the house endeared the breed to me for all time. Watching her
grow was an utter delight!!!
Although I was convinced
that Akasha was utterly perfect, I decided to show her & get a professional
opinion. To my delight, she placed very well, including .
Now I was determined to pass on her great qualities to future generations.
Akasha was bred to Amisar
Spartacus when she was 1 year old. Now I know how my husband felt when I was
expecting!!! Every move she made was scrutinized by me and I couldn't help
but speculate as to what the outcome would be. When she gave birth to seven beautiful kittens,
they grew into
stunning examples of the Bengal breed. I have kept one of the males to show.
He is now a Champion with TICA, Best of Colour International Winner, a multiple Merit Winner with GCCF
& a much loved stud cat. Also here is Frappant Enkil, a gorgeous large brown
spotted snow carrier. We have chosen our subsequent
queens for their superior bloodlines & strong conformation, including
Tejas Lily Langtry & Maharet's Spell. We aim to breed wellboned cats with wild heads, small ears & luxuriant , striking coats.
Joining us in 2005 are several
more stunning Bengal cats. Starwinds Lestat is a lovely rosetted boy from
Millwood Jag & Starwinds Candlewind. Many thanks to Phil & Adrienne Morgan
for this little cracker. We also added a few girls, Frappant Roslin is an
exceptional F5 silver spotted girl, & Belladonnakatz Clawdia is another
lovely silver spotted female. We have kept two girls back from our own litters, Mojogato Dragon's Jewel,
a fabulous seal mink marble from Chip & Lolo, & Mojogato Naomi's
Dream, a beautiful brown spotted girl from Chip & Lily with a snow white
tummy. We hope they will help to carry on the lines here at Mojogato Bengals.
We also added Frappant Mojogato Indigogo to the herd. Her stunning blue eyes
and lovely head will be a lovely addition to the snow program here at
Mojogato Bengals. Frappant Saffron has joined us from the Alsoomse program
as Donna is concentrating on her Pixie Bobs. Saffron is a rich rufoused girl
with a lovely head & white tummy. She is Enkil's half sister, so will be
visiting with Lestat in 2006. There will be a very special arrival here at
Mojogato Bengals in February 2006. Check the stud page for details.
As my furry family expanded, I
have learned a lot about the Bengal breed. It is important to the cats, or
any animal, to provide a loving, secure environment for them. I am
passionate about my animals, and will only place them in homes where they
will be loved and nurtured. I am always available for help and advice. If I
don't know the answer to your problem, chances are I can find out the answer
for you.
I am a member of the Bengal Cat
Club of Great Brittain, one of the largest breed clubs in the UK. Many of
the other Bengal breeders in the BCCGB have made me feel very welcome and
assisted me in this wonderous journey with my fascinating cats. Having
decided to leave the GCCF, BCCGB is having its first TICA show in March 2006
which I will be attending. Click here
for details of the club & shows.
During 2005 I became heavily
involved with CatTica, the first TICA associated cat club to hold shows in
the UK. I am enjoying the TICA way of showing my Bengal cats immensely, and
the cats enjoy the interactive show days. I will be manager of my own
CatTica show in February here in Derby. For more info go to
www.cattica.co.uk
I have made many friends in
the Bengal world, and count myself blessed to have the opportunity to work
with such lovely people in order to further the stunning Bengal cats here in
the UK.
I would like to thank Pat &
Collin Carpenter in particular for their invaluable help & advice. We would
not be half as knowledgeable without them. I feel confident that our cats
will be strong contenders on the show bench in the coming years, and really
contribute to the progression of Bengal cats in this country.
I can't recommend Bengal
cats
highly enough!!! Email me at
mojogato2002@yahoo.co.uk with any questions or just to talk about these
most fascinating of cats!!!!
