Raising Bengals and Savannahs is a very expensive and time consuming hobby and the prices reflect the expenses we incur with each litter, as well as happily and healthily maintaining the parent cats here with us at home. Our prices include age appropriate immunizations, parasite preventatives, microchip, a documented Veterinary Health Exam Report with FeLV/FIV test, internal/external parasite screening, thorough physical examination, spay/neuter, and a health guarantee.

We always give a discount off of the price of your second kitten from Urban Safari. This includes two kittens bought at the same time, or a second kitten bought at a later date.
PET BENGAL KITTEN PRICES
When we use the term 'pet or 'companion' it does NOT mean that the kitten is less desirable to own and has nothing to do with quality, health or temperament. It simply means the new owners do not intend to breed their kitten.
- The price range for a beautiful marbled or rosetted kitten is $1500 - $2000.
- Prices for early generation (F2-F3) Bengal kittens reflect the countless hours of human nurturing and bottle feeding that is crucial for proper socialization. The price range for an early generation companion kitten is $2500 - $3000.
SAVANNAH KITTEN PRICES
Prices are based on generation and confirmation to the breed standard. Early generation kittens must be bottle fed and the price of those kittens reflect the additional time and expense required to raise and properly socialize them.
- The price range for an F4 generation companion kitten is $1500 - $2500.
- The next generation is an F3. The price range for a companion kitten is $3000 - $3500.
- The next generation is our most popular, the F2. Price for a companion kitten start at $6000.
We prefer to sell our kittens as pets so they can enjoy a life of luxury. We do, however, realize the need to share bloodlines in order to provide diversity to the gene pool so we will occasionally sell a kitten with breeding rights. Prices and terms for intact breeding cats provided upon request.
Kittens sold as pets must never be used for breeding purposes and will already be spayed/neutered before leaving our home. This is part of our commitment to being a responsible breeder and is required on the code of ethics we adhere to for our registering bodies.
Please send us an email if you need additional information.
If a kitten is too expensive, adopting an adult can provide a wonderful friendship with a beautiful, high quality Savannah or Bengal. These wonderful cats are generally between 2 and 5 years old and are ready for a life of leisure loving you. They are less expensive than purchasing a kitten, and are spayed and up to date on shots.
READY TO PURCHASE A SAVANNAH OR BENGAL KITTEN?
- The first step to purchase an Urban Safari Bengal or Savannah kitten is to contact us so we can help you pick out the perfect kitten to compliment your home and family.

- Next comes PATIENCE while waiting for your kitten to go home which is normally around 12 weeks of age. Most kittens, by this time have received a solid foundation for socialization cues AND their immune system is mature enough to handle the changes of relocating, however, we must all understand each kitten is unique. In order to insure each kitten's health, we will not release it until we are confident it is in optimum condition. Some may develop at a slightly slower rate than others and we simply cannot rush Mother Nature.
- While waiting for your Bengal or Savannah kitten's arrival, we will keep you informed of your kitten's progress and development with emails and photos. We try to take new photos every 2 weeks, however, it is very time consuming to properly care for and socialize the kittens. Please accept our apologies if we aren't able to send updated photos as frequently as you'd like but sometimes there simply isn't enough time in the day for more frequent photo sessions.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING-If you live outside the United States and wish to purchase a kitten from Urban Safari, you must first check with the authorities in your country to be sure Bengal and/or Savannah cats, and what generations, are allowed. International shipping procedures require A LOT of time and expense and we simply must pass this expense on to our buyers.
