Cascade Rim Bengals is a small hobbyist cattery that is located on the west side of the Cascade foothills and nestled along the famous McKenzie River. Rhonda and I have become captivated by these friendly and entertaining Bengals that are extremely intelligent, full of life and always looking for fun and games. They demand being in the center of everything going around them. These beautiful creatures will capture your heart with their exotic wild looks and dependable temperaments. It is our passion working with these animals to give you a kitten to be proud of. We listen to what your looking for and take pride in making it happen, regardless if it means not making a sale on a particular kitten.
I'd like to thank all of the past and present Bengal breeders who have dedicated their life and hard work to this exotic looking feline. Without them, the Bengal cat would not exist today. These breeders have given their labor of love, not so much for monetary gain, but because of the admiration for this striking, beautiful breed. When you begin studying the pedigrees of our SBT Bengals, you will notice the quality of these cats have consistently improved with huge gains in recent years. |

Within the TICA breed standard, there is much room for interpretation in how to apply the standard. This is partly because the breed is so new (compared to most cat breeds) and the result of breed development from a hybrid cross between the Asian Leopard cat and the domestic cat. As a breeder, judge or admirer of the breed, we all have differing opinions when it comes to breed detail. I have a vision of what the perfect Bengal should look like, and it’s my goal and challenge to work with these cats for future generations, returning the favor of breeders before me.
We are excited with the quality of kittens we are producing with such limited numbers on the ground.
After many months of searching and turning down many cats, we have finally found the perfect male bengal to join our breeding program. This boy from Dadaelis bengals, is just breath taking with an incredible pedigree. Jasmine is producing kittens with extreme type and wild looking heads. Her kittens are nicely contrasted with a small amount of ticking (enhancing the wild ALC look). Black mascara and dark outlines around their rosettes, insure a cat that will retain color over time. Jaspur just turned 3 and is still as bright and clear coated as ever. Misha is producing beautiful kittens with some of the clearest coated babies, including Fannie with the richest coloration of all... Watch for Sandarhi, our newest upcoming queen.
Attending the 2009 On Safari in Portland Oregon, was such a humbling but inspirational event that will always be treasured. While not every top breeder was at this show, there were still many that were. It was an incredible feeling for so many of these breeders that I look up to, going out of their way to congratulate us on our wins and how much they liked our cats.
Cascade Rim Bengals is dedicated to establishing a reputation built on using the finest quality Bengals, healthy kittens and trust, gained from honest and fair breeding practices. You can be assured your kitten will be healthy and socialized with written guarantees. Folks who purchase kittens for pets will already have them spayed/neutered prior to leaving our cattery. We will do the right thing to make your investment fun and memorable and will not abandon you with any issues you may have.
Cascade Rim bengals is always anxious to show our cattery to visitors by appointment, but is closed cattery for outside breeding. We also screen our bengals for Tritrichomonas Foetus using pcr testing to ensure our kittens are free of this parasite
