I
have been breeding pedigree Bengals in North Shropshire for nine years. I aim to produce kittens of the highest quality who are healthy, happy and love human company. All my kittens are reared indoors with lots of love and affection. All are GCCF registered. I show my cats regularly and am dedicated to improving the breed. We are members of the Bengal Cat Club, the Ocicat and Bengal Cat Club and the Bengal Cat Club of Great Britain.
We occasionally have friendly well socialised kittens available to loving permanent homes.

STOP PRESS
MISSING BENGAL – TOBYSDEN WHIRLWIND aka “Whirly”
Whirly disappeared from his home in Tan-Y-Fron, near Wrexham, N Wales on October 26th. He is an 8 month old neutered brown marble Bengal. He is microchipped. He is very adventurous and inquisitive and it is possible he has been stolen or entered a vehicle without the driver knowing and been driven away as extensive local searches and enquiries have not resulted in any clues about what has happened to him. Please telephone 01978 755253 or me (01630638345) if you think you may have seen him.

GCCF SUPREME SHOW 2009 21/11/09
Toby winning Supreme Non-pedigree was a long-held dream come true and one I never thought would become a reality.
Toby is nearly 13 years old and a real old "pro" when it comes to showing. He has learnt how to win the judges over and he just behaved so beautifully all day and took the BIS judging on the big stage in his stride. I am just so proud of him!!
Although Toby stole the show for us the Bengals also did well. GrPr Tobysden Fantasia was Best of Breed Brown Spotted Neuter - a great acheivement for a young girl against a big class of beautiful boys. Our kittens also did well for their owners - Tobysden William of Orange and Tobysden Yogibear both being placed 2nd in their classes. Our retired queen, Twinkle ,won her Open class for Female Tabby Shorthair Pedigree pet.
OCICAT AND BENGAL CC 31/10/09
This was another really good day for us. Tobysden Balou and his sister Fantasia both being awarded their Imperial Grand challenge certificates and Balou went on to be Best in Show Bengal Neuter. Little Yogibear won his Open Class and last but not least dear old Toby won his third Grand so is now an official GCCF Grand Mastercat.
BENGAL CC SHOW - 25/7/2009 I am still wondering if I going to wake up and find out it was all a dream! All six of our cats did brilliantly and won certificates and to have three cats in the BIS pens was amazing and just a bit embarrassing!

Results were;
Gr Ch Llandar Sabu - Best of Breed brown spotted adult, BIS adult male, BIS Adult and Overall Best in Show - wow Boo! Many thanks to BIS judges, Mary Kalal and Helen Marriot-Power.
Gr Pr Tobysden Fantasia - Grand Premier and Best in Show Female Neuter
Twinkle - Master Cat Certificate, Best in Show Pedigree Pet and Household Pet - dear Twinkle is 8 years old and one of my retired breeding queens. She was never shown due to a tiny tail tip fault and stayed at home rearing lots of friendly kittens. It was lovely to have the opportunity to show her in the new pedigree pet section. She thoroughly enjoyed her day out - purred the whole day! Many thanks to judge Tom Wells .

---------------------------------------
Tobysden William of Orange did outstandingly well to win Best of Breed at Gwynedd CC show on 18/7/09. This was his first show and for a baby of just 17 weeks this was a great start to his show career. Fingers crossed he will follow in Balou's footsteps. Congratulations to new owner, Bobbie Hutchinson, for showing him so well. William is by Sabu out of Chiquitita.

UMC Toby the Tabby made a little bit of history at Merseyside CC Show on 6/7/09 by becoming one of the very first cats to win a GCCF Grand Mastercat Certificate on the first day GCCF certificates were awarded to non-pedigree cats. Toby really excelled himself to beat old rival UMC Littleman Raffles who was Reserve. Many thanks to judge Jean Huyton .
We have had a great start to
this year's show season at SHCS on 10th January with Harley winning his third
challenge certificate and Best of Breed to become a GCCF Champion and our dear
little Maggot (Posh name Vrechva Tobysdenmagnolia)not only won Best of Breed but
went on to be Best in Show Foreign Kitten.
Imp Gr Pr Tobysden Balou was
his usual outstanding self with a red card day, Best of Breed and another
Imperial Grand Challenge Certificate Toby came out of
semi-retirement at the Central Longhaired CC show on 24/1/09 to win 6 classes
and was Overall Royal Canin winner. Tobysden Fantasia really
excelled herself herself at Shropshire on 7/2/09 by beating her wonderful "
Imperial" brother Balou for Best of Breed and gaining her 3rd Premier
Certificate. At Coventry and Leicester on 28/2/09 dear little
Llandar Avalon also won her third Premier Certificate and Rosie (Toby's sister) excelled herself
in the non-pedigree section winning 6 classes and the Royal Canin heat.

at a show
A sweet girl bred by Anne and Michael
Randall who behaves impeccably at shows At the Lancashire CC show on
14/3/09 Balou once again had a brilliant day - winning Best of Breed over sister
Fantasia who won the female neuter class and her fourth PC.
Balou also won
another Imperial Grand Challenge certificate in a big class and had a red card
day overall. SUMMARY OF THE 2008 SHOW SEASON Without doubt
this has been our best year ever and there were so many highlights I don't know
where to start. Imp Gr Pr Tobysden Balou has had a wonderful year gaining
his Imperial Grand Premier title at jut two years of age. He was also Best
in Show Neuter at the Bengal CC Show in July. At the Supreme he was Best
of Breed and won his first UK Grand Premier certificate and was a whisker away
from becoming Supreme Foreign Neuter being runner up to a beautiful Bombay in
the BOV judging - so near yet so far Boo Boo! Tobysden Hullaballoo (Balou's
littermate) has also had a good year at TICA shows winning the Neuter Congress
at Bengal CC of GB in October and has recently gained the TICA title of
Quadruple Grand Champion Alter. Trying hard to keep up with her brothers
Tobysden Fantasia has become a TICA Double Grand Champion Alter and has won two GCCF
Premier certificates. Tobysden Stargazer (Basil) won his third
premier certificate at the Scottish CC show on 9/2/08 to become the third Tobysden
GCCF
Premier.
Pr. Tobysden Stargazer (Basil) Sabu has become a GCCF
Grand champion winning his third Grand Challenge certificate at Merseyside CC in
June Starwinds Noir Diamond(Harley) started the year really
well winning Best Foreign Kitten at Short Haired CS in January and Best of
Variety Foreign Exhibit at Shropshire CC in February. Since becoming an
adult he has won two GCCF Challenge Certificates and become a TICA Champion.
Recently he has decided showing is not exciting enough for him and started
terrorising judges! He doesn't really mean to frighten them and is a
complete softie at home so whether he will behave well enough to win his third
CC in 2009 remains to be seen. Other certificate and
Best of Breed winners included Tobysden Daisymae (Three Intermediate
Certificates and BOB Snow Marble at Bengal CC), Vrechva Tobysdenmagnolia (BOB at
both her shows), Llandar Avalon (two Premier Certificates) and Tobysden Zhivago
- a much loved pet who won BOB on the one occasion he was shown.
Congratulations and Many Thanks to everyone who showed their Tobysden Bengals
in 2008 :- Richard and Alex Crutchley - Tobysden Balou and
Tobysden Daisymae Rosemary and Brian Lenette - Tobysden
Hullaballoo, Tobysden Phantom and Tobysden Stargazer David
Burford - Tobysden Zhivago
