Gayzette | F1 to SBT Bengal Kitten Breeder

Minerva by Linda

Gayzette Minerva (Silver Spotted F2)
Owner - Linda Dunion (Supernova Bengals)

I can remember the first trip we made to meet Pauline and Frank and all their wonderful bengals. I was absolutely overwhelmed by all their stunning cats but none more so than the early generation F1s and F2s. Having bought a number of super breeding queens from Gayzette we were absolutely delighted to receive the call from Pauline to advise that they had produced a stunning silver F2 girl from Gayzette Whisper (out of Apollo of Gayzette). Suffice to say we were estatic and made arrangements very quickly to ensure this girl came home with us. I cannot put into words how I feel about Minerva. Everytime I look at her she takes my breath away. Not only is she absolutely a very rare and stunning girl but the love I receive from this little girl overwhelms me. She is an absolute treasure and we are so delighted to have her with us. I cannot express how grateful I am to Pauline and Frank for allowing me the great priviledge of having this beautiful wonderful girl. Minerva will be an absolute asset to our silver breeding programme in 2008.

Orion by Emma

We got Orion when he was 14 weeks old he is an F2 bengal which means his grandad is an asian leopard cat we have always wanted an F3 or above and were very fortunate too come across Pauline and Frank from Gayzette Bengals.

We have 3 other sbt bengals and just love there temperament and character we were not sure what too expect with a higher generation bengal but we were very surprised when we brought him home after 30 minutes in the same room as us he was purring rubbing against us and playing and from that moment he is our little shadow that follows us around.

I wanted too write this too let people know that the high generation bengals make great pets as long as you spend time with them, but this is the case with any animal, and in our experience we have found that Orion is friendlier than my SBT bengals and has fitted in too our family including our children so well we cannot imagine life without him.

Living with Khan

Its extremely difficult to put into writing what it is like to own a cat like Khan, he's so different from an ordinary house cat in every aspect..

From the first time I brought him home, he exceeded my expectations from what I imagined from a special cat.

Since owning Khan I have found he gives me the most unique love and devotion that can only be comparable to a dog. Not to mention the joy and laughter that I have had playing with him and watching him stalk his pray like a leopard (he has a amazing love of water too!). He communicates to me, by a "different" type of meow, more of a "chirping" (not like a normal cat) and greets me with a "kiss" (a combination of face rubbing , chirping and nuzzling, which is a real honour from a cat so special as Khan.)

Khans' personality is what makes him so fantastic, he has the most amazing awareness and intelligence, yet beauty and elegance, and the agility of a wild cat.

I feel I am very privaliged to have Khan, he's the most lovable and personable feline that you can imagine. My sincere thanks to Pauline and Frank, who without their dedication, I would not have the bond I do with a very exceptional cat.

I wouldn't trade Khan for anything and am so glad that he has come into my life................I think "HE" is the one who owns ME! (and I feel lucky he does!)

We are very fortunate that we were put into contact with Pauline a couple of years ago when she had virtually just started – together with her husband Frank – to breed Bengals. We had just lost our F2 Snow in a tragic accident and were desperately looking for a replacement. From the very first telephone contact with Pauline, we were stimulated and felt confident that we would find that replacement through her and from her. To simplify things, my wife and I flew from Portugal to their country, visited their home, saw their most wonderful cats – and dogs- and fell in love with Pascha.. Although we were looking for a Snow Bengal, he was the one we wanted!Pascha was hand-delivered to us in Portugal by Pauline and Frank.. that’s what we asked for, so Pascha had a kind of settling-in or handing-over to the new owners opportunity.. which was very worthwhile to say the least! Pascha is now about 2 years old.. A charismatic personality, most beautiful (probably the only F2 in Portugal) behaving like a little puppy dog, is very talkative; a big climber (we virtually rebuild one room in our huge house for him, so he could climb if and when he wants) loves being with us in the car.. or on the boat for sailing, stayed with us in several hotels – and seemed to enjoy it – and, while being a proud Bengal, he gives us unforgettable moments of Pleasure and Delight.. he is the very best cat we ever had.. and we had the pleasure of many cats – Siamese – who travelled with us around the world. Pascha has also demonstrated courage and flexibility.. Our aim was for him to be free and live – if and when he wanted – to enjoy life in nature, outside our home.. and that worked perfectly! But then, some crazy hunters shot him.. 26 bullets in his head area.. and he crawled home more dead than alive, after some 24 hours being unconscious.. and thanks to a wonderful vet and his strong instinctive willpower, he pulled through.. and that was one year ago! Pascha readapted to being a house cat.. and, for him to have the deserved companion, we arranged for him to have a female snow Bengal.. which we should have done in the first place.. and now we have 2 Bengals and, while climbing the curtains once in a while or do other crazy things, there is nothing better that the Love, Passion, Beauty, Affection and Dedication Pascha has for his “Masters”.. he loves us and we love him… what a wonderful F2 Bengal he is… thank you, Pauline and Frank.. for having delivered him to us Portugal.. and, as the Bengals seem to live some 25 years, we probably wont need another one. but, if so, the next one will also be from Pauline and Frank.. and why not an F1’?

We fell in love with the bengal breed around 18 months ago having been completely bowled over by their wonderful personalities and stunning good looks. We went to see some kittens around 12 months ago and three months later we ended up with our three adorable bengal boys Lubo, Lenny and Loki.

A few months later we decided it would be lovely to have a little bengal girl of show/breeding quality in our lives so we contacted Pauline and Frank at Gayzette. They had the most adorable little girl with the fantastic markings, face and coat contrast so of course we reserved her asap! Gayzette Champagne Supernova or Nova as we fondly call her is a fantastic example of the bengal breed with an excellent pedigree. Nova is always on the move but is such a sweetheart. She has a fantastic nature with a great attitude and such a wonderful sense of humour!

She is an absolute darling and our boys adore her! We look forward to showing Nova early in 2007.

Thank you Pauline and Frank for our beautiful girl.
