Adelhills Special Forces (aka “Kahawa”, meaning “Coffee” in Swahili)
BDGCH Adelhills Special Edition x Adelhills Sweet Dreams
This stunning seal sepia rosetted boy was a major win for our cattery and his beauty and wild grace inspired us to move to a formal, dedicated breeding programme. His colouring and character are so amazing that we simply had to have him when he was offered to us, and simply had to make sure his endearing and amazing qualities are carried on into the breed bloodlines.
Bred by Melinda Radus of Adelhills and hotly sought after as a kitten by multiple breeders, this spotted boy has phenomenal contrast in colouring and an incredibly soft pelt. How he moves is a thing of beauty, he is bold and courageous, and he slinks gracefully and stealthily like his wildcat ancestors.
Possibly the most playful, cheeky and mischievous of all our Bengals, Kahawa will happily jump on your shoulder to reach around and gently tug your glasses off your face and pull himself through computer monitors and cables upside down on his back – such a character! He is highly social by nature and loves having people and other pets around him.
Arrowfield David Bowie
Bdalebengals Domino x Aliya Katchos Galiana
This beautiful boy joined our family in early September 2023 from a respected buyer in the Eastern states. Bowie has striking black rosettes with a gorgeous brown fur coat that shines in sunlight. He is a very relaxed boy who is happy to curl up in a soft cat tree any time of the day and is an amazing stud due to his easy-going nature with female cats.
He is known to produce a many variety of kitten colours, ranging from browns and charcoals to silvers and snows. He is an excellent breeding male and has a bright future within our family!
Future King
Kamanda King Jabali (aka “Jabali”, meaning “Rock” in Swahili)
Arrowfield David Bowie x Arrowfield Winter
The newest member of our family is a boy who was born early November 2023 to two beautiful breeding cats. His father, Bowie, is known to produce a variety of offspring colours whilst his mum, Winter, comes from a line of cats that breed excellent quality kittens in high quantities.
Jabali came from a litter of 5 kittens; two snows, two browns and himself, a charcoal. As soon as we saw him after Winter’s birth we knew he would be our next breeding male. From his striking colours and distinctive rosettes to the markings on his face, we knew that he would father amazing kittens in the future.
Whilst he is charcoal in appearance, his fur has silver undertones that classifies him as a Silver Charcoal Bengal. He is being raised alongside two of our retired cats to ensure the best socialisation and behavioural adaptions to combat the different personalities each of our Queen have!
Jabali will be introduced into our breeding program in late 2025 and we look forward to seeing his personality shine and the variety of kittens he produces!

Gucci Sampson the Brave x Bundu Mandisa Rose
Bwana is our surprise wonder boy! Due to come to our cattery from back east for evaluation as an addition to our programme – we didn’t even make it out of the airport from collecting him before we decided he was perfect to join our cattery.
He is one cool cat, very chill with a stunning head and eyes. He is one of the rare males who gets on well with all other cats, even other males. He has a gentle nature and is placid, relaxed and easy going.
Bwana is happy to chill, anywhere, anytime. Put him on your lap in the car and it’s lights out for this boy as he falls asleep right away. He is happy wherever he is, whatever you are doing. He has the kind of colour and rosettes that get us excited, with a fantastic, beautiful head that oozes “Bengal” perfection. With his cheeky temperament and easy-going attitude he’s been likened to the Cheshire Cat. We are very excited to see how his temperament travels into his offspring.
