Ready to Walk On The Wild Side?
We are an award winning health testing cattery, we pride ourselves on not only the stunning looks of our Bengals but also the beautiful temperaments that come from our specially selected Studs and queens.
Bengals originate from mating an Asian Leopard cat with a domestic cat. This crossbreeding aimed to create a domesticated cat with a wild appearance and to also to research finding a cue for feline leukemia.
Australian Bengals are now far enough removed from their wild ancestry to be considered perfect family pets and loving lap leopards as long as they are bred for temperament as well as beauty.
Bengals are incredibly intelligent, active, loving, and sociable cats. They have a high metabolism, love their food, and do not fully mature until they are two years old. They can be trained to walk on harnesses, play fetch, and enjoy outdoor activities. However, due to their high prey drive, it is important to keep them safely on a harness when outside. Bengals are highly trainable and can even be clicker trained.
Bengals have distinctive colours and patterns, including spotted, rosetted, marbled, and solid. They come in many different colours such as brown, snow, silver, and black (melanistic). Their coat is easy to care for and they are known to be low allergy, although it is recommended to test for reactions if someone in the household has severe allergies.
Here at Wild Valley Bengals, we specialize in Snow, Brown, silver and in patterns Spotted, Rosetted, clouded and charcoal we also are now specializing in Cashmere long hair Bengals. Bengals have an easy-care coat thanks to their amazing pelt, most love water so bathing them is made easy but mainly they only require regular brushing and nail clipping. Some Bengals also have the glitter gene which makes them sparkle in the sunlight it is glorious.
Wild Valley Bengals have managed to get Cashmere Bengals Recognized and able to be shown in NSW with NSW CFA, we have Australia’s first registered long haired stud who has been imported from Poland. In 2025 we have 2 more Cashmeres coming from the UK and another long-haired carrier coming from Poland. Cashmere cats, or long-haired Bengals, are also referred to as semi-long-haired Bengals, and they were always part of the breeding program as the Bengal cats were developed. But the longer hair used to be considered an undesirable trait, so it took some time before these cats were accepted not only as a variety of the Bengal cat breed but also as a new breed on its own. And the name Cashmere came about in 2013, when the long-haired Bengal was given preliminary breed status in the NZCF (New Zealand Cat Fancy) registry. That is when Damian Vaughan, a breeder, asked to have the Cashmere name used to register these cats. Long-haired versions of the Bengal cat exist because some of the cats carry a longhair gene, which is a recessive gene that would cause some kittens to be born with longer hair. Breeders today can use genetic tests to figure out which Bengal cats have this recessive gene, and by breeding two cats that have the gene, they can ensure that Cashmere kittens will be born. Despite these efforts, however, the Cashmere is still considered rare. Cashmere Bengals will have the same traits as your short haired Bengal and require lots of love and attention. A Cashmeres coat is a easy care coat just like the short hair thanks to their silky pelt. They only require regular brushing to keep their coat look luxurious, it also creates a beautiful bond between you and your cat.
