About us

We are Sabine and Marcus and we lead with lots of love and responsibility the cattery of the “Leopardcats Bengals” (previous name: "Of Wildsafari"). We live in Aachen, a city which is located near cologne. We´ve always been thrilled by several animals and since I was a child, the big wild cats, if only on TV or in a zoo have fascinated me.

Marcus has had cats as child and our first common cat was our beautiful Housecat “Rocky”, who also live with us.

Since I saw some Bengals live at a cat show, their wild and exotic look and their lovely character filled me with enthusiasm. Since that day I saw them first it was certain for me, that I want also such a adorable cat. I set at my PC and tried to find out all about Bengals that was possible.

It wasn´t easy, because here in Germany are only few breeders and no book about Bengals in german. So I bought 2 books from the USA, spend my free time in the internet and visited some breeders. After long and abundant informations I decided to import our stunning “TROLLSPOTTING RAVENNA” from Denmark. Till today, we don´t want to miss any day with her and are very happy to have her. Bengals are real a special one of all breeds. Since September 2003 our Ravenna lives with us. She is a very nice and type girl and a very careful mother to her kittens. She has had some very beautiful kitten with our boy Xtreme. You can have a look at her kittens in our Gallery.

On 2^nd August 2004 we have brought our new Bengal boy home “MAINSTREET´S XTREME” from Debbie Corns (USA – California). Xtreme is absolutely breathtaking and a real stunner!!! He´s has siring some very amazing kittens for us. We love Xtreme very much, because he not only looks very beautiful – he has an absolutely fabulous purrsonality!

On 13th February 2006 Ravenna and Xtreme has given us 4 very beautiful kittens. We have kept two very promising young girls for our future breeding program. We are very excited about how "Lucky Strike" and "Special Impact" will develope.

Althoug we don´t have many cats, we want to contribute our efforts in continuing to develop this astonishing breed.

We breed Bengals in the traditional brown color, in spotted, rosetted and sometimes in marbled. Our cats are full family members and can run to our whole flat – also Xtreme. We want to expressly distance ourselves from cage-holding cats!!!!!!!!!!!!

It´s important for us to use queens and studs, which are healthy and fits the standard best. Also important for us is the lovely and affectionate character of our cats, which they will transmit to their kittens.

We are original members of IG-BENGAL (Schwitzerland) and TICA-Schweiz. And are a Q´Cat© certified Cattery. Also we are proud members of TIBCS and TICA in USA.

Our Breeding goals:

healthy and type kittens
wild exotic look & affectionate loving purrsonality
a short and silky coat
dramatic markings/rosettes
extreme contrast
Goldglitter

We breed Bengals because we love them and we want them to enlarge, we want to provide information to people interested in Bengals and we want to help to promote the Bengal as breed.

We love our cats very much and if we don´t use them anymore for breeding they will be staying by us their whole lives as neutered cats.

Obvious we take our Bengals to international cat shows (traditional ones and also TICA), so we hear different opinions and judgements from judges, win titles and to show them for spectators, because they are much more beautiful if you see them live!!!
