GLITTERINGGOLD RHUBARB

Hi Kim, Spice (Rhubarb) is doing great, she is growing up fast but still as sweet as ever. She is a beautiful girl and loves to be cuddled. She adores her best friend Custard! We are so impressed with her, both with how gorgeous her coat is and with her adorable personality, which are a credit to the love and care you obviously show to all your kittens. Rhubarb definitely gets a lot of admirers and we are very proud of our little girl. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone who is looking for a Bengal.   Best wishes, Sam & Lewis April 2007

GLITTERINGGOLD INDIANA

Below, is a nice letter that Rosita of WILDREAM Bengals, her new owner, sent us. Because she speaks mostly German, a computer translator put it into English. Thanks, Rosita!!

	Hello Kim Indiana is already almost a year old now and we haven't regretted any day yet to have her. We can still remember exactly when we received her at the Frankfurt airport. We were so enthusiastic when we saw her. What a pretty, kind and healthy kitten! My eyes were filled with tears of joy when I could take Indiana finally into my arms. Our expectations were exceeded. Indiana has settled down very fast with us and it is very popular with everyone. She enjoys our love and attention. She also likes our Labrador male a lot. She is particularly happy if our two grandchildren are at our place for a visit and play with her (3 and 8 years old). Indiana's coat and pattern have developed very well. We are enthusiastic about her wonderful three-coloured rosettes and we know that Indiana is going to bring about great improvements to our breeding program. She is going to have her first litter soon and we cannot wait! Kim, we cannot thank you at all enough that you have entrusted us with this very pretty and so dear kitten. Indiana tells us that ou take much time with the rearing and socialization of your kittens. We also find it very nice that your web site is always updated regularly. We like to have a look at the photos of Indiana's brothers and sisters. Keira is a wonderful Mom. Many thanks and many kind greetings from Germany Rosita and Michael Sävert

GLITTERINGGOLD DAWN

Dawn and her sister, Dazzler, are the new "star cats" of Mulit-Vet's SSSCAT line of products. Check them out at your local pet store!

 

Dear Kim and Kaylen,

From the pictures and information on your web-site, and from our
exchange of e-mails, I fully expected that I would receive a beautiful
bengal kitten with a fantastic personality. but Dawn exceeds even my
greatest expectations! She is friendly, outgoing, adventurous and
playful, but also never misses an opportunity to snuggle up and cuddle.
And could it be that, when mommy Keira was handing out the purr-boxes to
her little kittens, she made a mistake and gave Dawn a lawn-mower motor
instead? I cannot describe the enjoyment I get from bringing Dawn with
me wherever I go and seeing everyone's expressions of stunned amazement
at her incredible beauty.
Thank you for allowing me to have this wonderful kitten, and for the
love and attention with which you have raised her. I look forward to our first cat show in June!

GLITTERING GOLD TAI

Kim, Who ever said you can't buy love???  My kitten is a big ol' bundle of it!  Thank you so much for such a wonderful baby! As a previous Bengal owner and Bengal lover, I knew how special they were. Kim, you are just as special! You really love these animals and it shows in the quality and personality of each and every one. Thanks for the weekly updates, the pictures, the patience, and working so hard with me in shipping Tai to me in rural Mississippi. I will send pictures as soon as I can either get him still enough, or out of my lap long enough! Jamie Hughes

GLITTERINGGOLD ROSIE

 

Dear Kim & Kaylen,

Rosie is now 7 months old and is more beautiful than we could have imagined.  Just before you sent Rosie to us, you mentioned that you thought Rosie was going to be very shy and we would like to let you know that her personality is far from that.  Rosie perches herself on us to go to sleep every night.  She knows exactly when it's bedtime and sometimes she even beats us to the bed.  Rosie has been wonderful with both our boys.  She is Austin's favourite and she even lets our 17 month old boy cuddle and play with her.  Her coat is becoming more defined every day.  We wanted to thank you for the wonderful care that you took in socializing and preparing her for the long trip here.  When Rosie arrived she was relaxed and laying in her hammock in her carrier.  (That is a great idea and I think she really appreciated it.)  It was wonderful to always have weekly updates on her progress and pictures of her as she was growing before she came to us.  Rosie adapted well to all our other cats.  We were so proud of her placements at her first show in South Bend, Indiana in September with one first in best of breed and a few seconds.  She really showed her stuff in the rings.  We can't wait for her to be ready to be a mommy.  She will have beautiful litters just like her mom did and we're sure that she will take great care in raising them.  She is a wonderful addition to our  small breeding program.   Thank you for all the advice you have given us to help us in starting our own.  We would never think twice to recommend you to anyone or purchase another Bengal for our program from your cattery.

Sincerely, Brian & Paula Gignac

GLITTERINGGOLD KIKO (LENNY )

Glittering Gold is the best breeder I have found for Bengals anywhere. I did several hours of research and was so relieved to find someone else who found the same quality and standards in their breeding for a superior looking feline with a great disposition. People who see my Bengal "ooh" and "ahhh" every time they meet him, including our veterinarian! I remember when we picked him up from the airport and how amazed I was by his striking coloring.  His face lit up in the sun and I finally understood the name "Glittering Gold". My daughter is thrilled because she believes she owns her very own leopard! We were so pleased, we decided to purchase another Bengal from the following litter. I was most impressed by the effort to care for these kittens in a home environment, which I found has made for the best pet. I was well informed by the breeder and sent regular updates as the litter grew, which was important to me. And anytime I had a question, I felt that I was always a priority. I highly recommend this cattery for their attention to detail and incredible standards! Thank you!"  -Andrea Firpo San Jose, Ca

GLITTERINGGOLD LEO

Dear Kim, I have to say I agree that your Bengal's are by far the nicest looking that I have seen throughout my research. In the sun Leo really does sparkle. From the first day you introduced Leo to us, our experiences with him have been an adventure. I can honestly say there's never a dull moment since our new arrival. I knew Bengal's were a very social cat, but what a personality, Leo is with me no matter what I'm doing he's involved somehow. He's such a part of our family; he fit right in right from the very first day. When Leo's not close by I just have to look up and I'll find him in the highest places. I also knew Bengal's had a love for water but didn't realize to what extent. Leo loves to bath with or without us. He plays and drinks from the water facets. I even found him playing in the toilet, literally. The girls love him. My youngest daughter pushes him around in her doll stroller, and Leo really enjoys it. One day I'd love to get another Bengal for Leo, we play with him all the time, but it's not the same as having a brother or sister around. Thank-you for introducing Leo into our lives. Keep in touch. Leo says meow. The Holm family.

After having Leo for awhile, the Holm family decided he needed a little girlfriend...so they also adopted beautiful

"Posh" from us:o)

Below are pics of Posh and some of her and Leo together.....love is bliss:o)

GLITTERINGGOLD BELLA

Hi Kim, I want to tell you what a fantastic kitty Bella has been for me.  Even though she was a little older when I got her, she was an opportunity that I couldn't pass up.  That decision was greatly tested in the process of arranging transportation, which can inadequately be called a nightmare.  Bella was already a part of my house hold, so there was no option in my mind for giving up, and you were great in working with me throughout the process. Bella took a little longer to bond with me as she wasn't as young as usual when I got her, but with patience and love and some training, she quickly became my little girl.  Bella has quite the independent personality, even though she's very loving.  She now begs me to fill up the tub so she can play in it, and watches the goings on in the house from on top of any door she can get to.  She's great with strangers and cat breeders and rescuers that I've met in the pet supply store with Bella remark on how well socialized she must have been as a kitten.  You did a wonderful job with this kitty and both me and my Siamese truly appreciate it.  In fact, I'm already on the list for another kitten for when I'm ready.  How's that for repeat business? Many thanks Mittar

KAI AND LUCY LU

(brother and sister)

	To Kim and Kaylen, Having purchased Kai and Lucy lu from you and your daughter has been an amazing experience. Purchasing cats from the internet was new for us and thanks to your expertise you made the experience easy. With your weekly updates of pictures and their developing personalities we were always well informed and excited to check our e-mail for more. Our cats are a huge part of our lives and we love nothing more than to spoil them. We are so glad we decided at the last minute to get Kai's little sister Lucy Lu as well, for we couldn't imagine having only just one. Thanks for enhancing our lives with 2 lovely wonderful cats. Doug and Keira Chapman

GLITTERINGGOLD REBA

	Thank you Kim and Kaylen for my beautiful new girl!!! She is so sweet and a picture of health. It's been a great experience dealing with both of you. You have been informative and very helpful in my Bengal endeavor. Also, I really appreciated the updated pictures that you would send to me via e-mail. Lisa Clingersmith October 26, 2004

GLITTERING GOLD KHYBER

Hi Kim, Just wanted to say thanks again for the beautiful Bengal kitten. He's absolutely adorable... and he truly is glittering gold! As you can see from the enclosed pictures, he's right at home. This little guy has obviously been raised with a lot of TLC on your part, as he's as friendly, healthy, and energetic as any kitten we've ever seen! Also, thanks for your follow up phone calls and e-mails... it's a real pleasure to deal with a breeder so committed to the ongoing welfare of their animals. Best Wishes, Jack and Carol Harrand Regina, S

GLITTERING GOLD MIKA

Kim: Geoff and I are soooo happy having Mika as part of our family. We both love her dearly. Andddd yes, Geoff is now a cat person (smile). He's had absolutely no allergic reaction to her. Andddd neither have any of our family members when they've been over to visit... She's curled up right next to me taking a little afternoon nap. We're both enjoying the warmth of the fireplace... Kim, we're both so happy with her. She's got a wonderfully playful personality who equally loves her cuddle time. She enjoys chatting and teaching us 'bengal-ese.' Words cannot even begin to explain how much love she's brought to our home. Oh yeah, you'll be interested to know that she still enjoys the 'back rides' Kaylen introduced her to. Vickie Degaro

GLITTERINGGOLD SUNNY AND PYRO

These lucky brothers got to go to their new home together where I hear they regularly

enjoy turning it upside down!!

(The pics below show just how sociable the Bengal cat is! They easily adapt to all animals!)

Kim:

We've had a lot of fun with Pyro and Sunny, and I don't believe we've
had a dull moment in our lives since we've gotten them. They are so
well natured and such beautiful animals along with very different, but
very interesting personalities. The photo's you posted every week on
your website were nice, so we got to see how they were developing, and
every question I threw at you was always answered in understanding
detail. I was also pleased at your honesty when you found out that
one of them had a small developmental heart murmur(which went away within a few weeks!)

Would I buy from you again?
Yes, in a heartbeat. Was it money well spent? The smile I get on my
face everytime I look at one of my boys is a definite yes. Thanks for
everything Kim, it's been a pleasure and an experience made easy
dealing with you.

GLITTERINGGOLD HOBBES

"Darrel and Erin - Grande Prairie, Alberta", thanks. :)         Upon seeing a photo of a Bengal cat that an acquaintance of ours had purchased from Kim, we were immediately enthralled with the beautiful look of the Bengal. We researched Bengal Cats on the Internet, and couldn’t help but come to the conclusion that out of all of the websites we had visited, Kim’s cats specifically stood out as being the most gorgeous of all of them. I e-mailed Kim numerous times, and she responded quickly, amiably, and knowledgably about questions I had about her Bengals. We quickly decided to buy a male Bengal that was available; he was dubbed ‘Tiny Tim’, as he had initially been one of the smallest in the litter, but he soon caught up with the others. I was told that he had a great temperament for kids; and that he enjoyed being cuddled. I also was informed that the kitten’s parents were also well tempered, and loving cats. We were kept up-dated with weekly photos, and we continued e-mail correspondence with Kim to answer further questions that we had.     When the big day came, Kim was just as eager as us to make sure he arrived safely via his flight, and asked us to stay in touch to let her know how he made out. We were impressed with the kitten upon first sight; he was so cute! His amazing golden color and glistening fur stood out more so than it had in the photos. Our 2 children, a son who’s 8, and a daughter who’s 3, were immediately able to hold him, cuddle with him, and play with him. I can honestly say that he fit right into our family right from day 1. Even our other 2 [fully grown] female cats have accepted him with no problem. True to Kim’s word, our Bengal, named ‘Hobbes’ by our son, {after the infamous Hobbes in the Calvin and Hobbes comics} was very well socialized [and obviously familiar with a family atmosphere] when we got him. I was impressed with how easily he accepted attention/affection from the children. They carried him around constantly, with nary a complaint from him. He’s a very relaxed kitten, both physically and personality-wise. Hobbes is smitten with both children, and has an especially strong bond with our 8-year-old son. Hobbes loves to be held and cuddled. Hobbes also does very well with guests, [children guests included!] Guests who come to our house always comment on how gorgeous, and how unique Hobbes is. He amuses us with his antics. He’s ‘feisty’ and energetic at times, but he is never mean spirited. He plays fetch with us with his Beloved fuzzy pipe cleaner. He loves being pulled around in a box with a rope attached to it. He loves jumping into backpacks, and being carried around.     He has literally grown more beautiful with each passing day; his markings have come out even stronger than we had anticipated, and he is a very striking cat indeed. We feel very Blessed to have this beautiful cat with such a terrific personality in our home, and are so happy with having him in our lives. He’s truly such a joy to have around. He greets us at the door when we come home from running an errand, much like a dog would. He is actively involved in our daily family life, choosing to watch and often play in the midst of activities. If you’re looking for a Bengal, look no further than Kim’s cats. She has definitely done her research, and breeds a top of the line Bengal. It’s a family business, and it’s obvious to see that they don’t run a ‘cattery’ so-to-speak, but rather, a home for their cats, filled with love. Even right down to the last detail we can see how much Kim and her family love and care for their cats; we laughed aloud, as we first looked into the kennel for Hobbes flight that she provided for us to keep; in it, was a cat hammock, in which Hobbes could comfortable snuggle into - with big fuzzy padding that had obviously laid down with lots of love.

GLITTERINGOLD SIMBA- STRYPER

Dear Kim and Kaylen, As you know we had been looking for a beautiful Bengal for almost a year, until we came across your website!  Of all the very many Bengals we have seen during our search...none match yours for outstanding colour, size, markings and beauty!   You have been so helpful in answering all of our questions thoroughly, and just keeping in touch with us. We also really appreciated the weekly photo updates...our weekly perk!   Most of all, words cannot express our gratitude to you for allowing this gorgeous boy to become a part of our family! We love him so much! Pictures really don't do him justice...he's just so beautiful, he takes our breath away! Whenever we take him out, he literally draws a crowd to himself! Most people say that they have never seen such a beautiful cat...we can't help but agree!  Aside from being so gorgeous, it is very obvious that while in your care, he has been given nothing but much love and careful attention. With his looks and sweet temperament...he exceeds all of our expectations!   We wish you the best in your future as a breeder.....youdeserve it! Jeff, Chantale and family
