KITTEN PRICING
We don't set kitten prices in advance or at birth.
Bengal newborns need time to develop, so we don't evaluate our
kittens until 6 weeks of age.
At 6 weeks of age, we take several factors into
consideration to evaluate each kitten. Weekly photos
taken since birth show how their pattern and color are developing.
We study their daily growth chart to predict their size. We
also examine how their bone structure and musculature are developing.
And by 6 weeks, we're beginning to get a feel for their
individual personalities.
Pet kittens are generally priced $800-$1500.
Our price includes spay/neuter, microchip with lifetime activation,
vaccinations, worming, and veterinary exam.
| Why is there a wide range in
prices? Because Bengals are a hybrid breed there is a lot
of variation between individuals.
* Our most exceptional kittens with great show or breeding
potential command the highest prices, even when sold as pets.
Those kittens are the best reflection of the breed standard or have
other exceptional characteristics.
* Our "normal" high quality kittens with good
dramatic markings and body
structure are priced in the middle. These are very nice pedigree
Bengals without any significant flaws.
* Kittens with imperfect structure,
color, or pattern are priced at the low end.
They're not defective - they have normal Bengal looks and character,
just not exactly what cat judges are looking for.
At Pixel Perfect Cats we concentrate on a small
population of high quality breeding Bengals so we don't produce any
cheap Bengals... the infamous 'Backyard Bengals' or 'Craigslist
Kittens' who give the breed a bad reputation. Unfortunately,
kittens from such breeders seldom have very good Bengal genetics.
They're notorious for looking spotted when young but fading to normal
tabby with age. But here at Pixel Perfect Cats, take a look at
our adults and read our testimonials from owners - we work hard to
make sure Pixel Perfect kittens grow into stunning cats who are
unbelievably fun to share your home with.

Read our kitten
contract and health guarantee. We're one of the few breeders to
offer a full refund if the kitten is found to be sick at the first vet
exam. However, it is your responsibility to have your kitten examined by a licensed veterinarian
within 72 hours of pickup (or shipping arrival) to validate the
guarantee.
Kittens are usually ready to go to their new homes at 12 weeks of age.
In some instances we may be forced to delay the date due to unforeseen circumstances. Our veterinarian
operates on a tight schedule, and if any last-minute illness appears
we won't release a kitten that isn't in good health. Don't worry
though; everything goes smoothly almost every time!
Shipping, if required, is through
Continental
Airlines and usually costs about $300. This includes a TSA-approved
carrier which is yours to keep. We've had nothing but good
experiences with Continental's pet shipping service.
Payment:
Deposits and other payments may be made in
cash, by check, or via PayPal. All checks must be received at least 5
business days in advance of pickup/shipping to allow for processing.
We do not charge an extra percentage to cover
PayPal transaction fees. Nor will we add an extra percentage to
refunds issued through PayPal. We all lose a little bit in fees to pay
for convenience. If you wish to avoid PayPal fees, we can send your
refund by check.
