Continuing
the excellence started by my parents in England. My parents Geoff and
Betty Ward, established the Bengal Cat Club Of Great Britain.
We
are Chris and Sharon Winchester and we live in Pearcedale near
Mornington, Victoria. We raise a few sheep and we breed
and show Bengal Cats under the BENGAL AUST prefix.
I (Chris) have a Military background having served in the British Army and with
The Australian Special Forces. I also spent 12 years with Community Services
when I decided to continue the tradition started by my parents Geoff & Betty
Ward who established the Bengal Cat Club of Great Britain.
Two of our Bengals have been bred by Jean Mill who started the Bengal Breed.
We established Bengals Australia as a registered business and we export our kittens
all over the world. We have established breeding lines which are healthy and
which produce many show-quality cats. We are enjoying a successful show career
with CCC of A titles and FCCVic titles being awarded to our cats.
