ABOUT US

Enchanted Tails Bengals is a small cattery located in Columbia County, Oregon, near Portland and Vancouver, WA. It is my goal that my cats' beauty and reflection of the wild Asian Leopard Cat, along with their loving, affectionate, and playful personality will totally enchant you, bringing you more love and joy than you have ever experienced before.

We have an indoor and an outdoor cattery. Our housecats are able to enjoy fresh air and the outdoors by using this cat porch that my brother built. This porch is attached to a window in the house, so the cats can come and go at will.

Our housecats can go out in the cat porch,
whenever they please, for fresh air and sunshine.

 We would love to have all our cats in the house and sleeping with us at night, but...............this would not be good for the cats, nor for us!!! Young cats and kittens, some of our queens, and our neutered pets have the run of the house.

Breeding females can sometimes be intolerant of other cats, especially as their hormones change through pregnancy. Also, unaltered females may spray when they are in heat. Therefore, a few of our females have their own room or spacious outdoor enclosure.

This enclosure is 16 feet by 12 feet, plus a safety entrance corridor.

Our mature whole males also live in roomy outdoor enclosures because of their tendency to spray and to ensure we have no unplanned pregnancies!

This house is 8 feet by 12 feet and has a great view!

Queens are given a private room to have their kittens. Mama cats can be very protective of their young around other cats, so they need to be separated from the general cat population.

 This is a kitten toddler room.

When kittens start getting old enough, they are brought into the main house for longer and longer visits. Once they are weaned they have the run of the house and sleep with me at night. They, like all our cats, receive tons of love and attention, creating well socialized, sweet, loving pets. They are fed only high quality cat food. All our cats and kittens are registered with TICA.

The lady owned by the cats has always adored animals, growing up with a variety of dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, rabbits, turtles, birds, horses, and even an alligator! She was very successful showing purebred Arabian horses for a good part of her life. One day she discovered Bengal Cats, who have since enhanced her life with an abundance of love, joy, and ceaseless entertainment.

Enchanted Tails is a member of The International Cat Association and The International Bengal Cat Society.
