Every cat in our program leaves a lasting mark — on our cattery, on the kittens they've produced, and on our hearts. These are the boys and girls who helped build BestView into what it is today. We are so grateful for everything they have given us, and we celebrate the legacies they leave behind. Some are still with us, and some have moved on to their forever homes — either way, they will always be a part of our story.
"Beatrice"
Beatrice is a Seal Mink Spotted Bengal. She has great pawprint pattern rosettes and nice horizontal flow. She is super chatty and a very sweet cat. She has given us Trixie and Iris.
Thank you to Sami Kerr at Akerrs Bengals for these great photos!
"Chim"
We have been so incredibly fortunate to have a cat from the late Jaen Treesinger at the prestigious Rainforest Cattery. Jaen produced exceptionally wild-looking cats, and Chim has been no exception. She has a big puffy tail, a strong chin and profile, and beautiful puffy nose leather. Both Roo and Ree carry her legacy, passing on her exceptional wild look to the next generation at BestView.
"Lily"
Lily came to us from Lori and Beth Bearry at Simply Blessed Bengals. Many thanks to them for this lovely girl. Lily is a high energy, affectionate cat. She has such a sweet temperament. She has huge beautiful green eyes and a nice short thick tail. We love her low set nose. She also has the best voice of all the cats.
"Takara"
Takara came to us from Akerrs Bengals in Ohio! She has a soft, gorgeous coat with great horizontal flow. I just love her big eyes! Pairing her with a sweet and calm tempered boy has made for good tempered and beautiful kittens.
Takara has served us so well and given us a great boy — BestView CheeseTake is carrying on her legacy beautifully. It's time for her to find a wonderful forever home. See her listing on the Available Adults page for details.
"Trixie"
Beatrix, like her mom, is an absolute stunner, pattern/markings-wise. She has such rich color to her coat and dark black outlining to her rosettes. She has given us some truly beautiful kittens over the years, but her last two births were hard on her, so we made the loving decision to have her spayed. Now it's Trixie's turn to be pampered — she'll be looking for a forever home where she can relax and be the center of attention. Coming soon to our Available Adults page!
"Iris"
Iris is our adventure cat. She loves going on walks with us (though she does often like to be carried!) We love her personality, her beautiful pattern, and her iron constitution! She seems to be able to eat a variety of different foods with little or no tummy upset! Iris has now retired and continues to be a treasured member of the BestView family.
"Adel"
Adel is a super sweet girl. She loves being with humans and is not shy at all! She loves to sit on shoulders. Adel is now retired and living her best life in a pet home, where she was reunited with one of her kittens from a previous litter.
"Cloud"
Cloud is a Seal Lynx Point with a great head and nice markings. He is also the sweetest cat around! Oh, and did we mention that he gets a compliment on his beautiful healthy heart from the veterinary cardiologist when he goes in for his HCM screenings? He has given us Roo, Ree, and Iris.
"Cheesecake"
Cheesecake came to us from Arkham Bengals and we are so thankful he did! He is so friendly and loves to play! We love his beautiful coat, big green eyes, and nearly fully spotted hind legs.
What a mark Cheesecake has left on BestView — Trixie and CheeseTake are living proof of just how special he is. He's more than earned the wonderful forever home waiting for him. See his listing on the Available Adults page for details.
And thank you to Will and Candee Losee at Arkham Bengals for these fantastic photos!
