About Us

Piccolo Leopardo more than a breeding, it is an extended family to a few selected cats. Bengalis live in the house together with the owners and a little dog. At the Piccolo Leopardo the first concern is health: all our kittens are genetically tested for PRAb and PKdef, and every year we take them for heart ultrasound checking, to control the presence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Fortunately, there have never been any positive cases. Also on annual basis we submit the kittens to blood tests, FIV and FELV and feline coronavirus, again these result always negative, as well as the analysis of stool and the Giardia test.

At the Piccolo Leopardo we select our feline guests for sociability: being born and grown in the house they develop a docile and domestic character, they like pampering and appreciate being embraced. They say God “created cats to allow man to caress a tiger.” We breed bengal puppies to allow passionates to pet african big felines.

We are a member of the C.I.B. Italian Bengala Club and we participate nearly 2 times a year in A.N.F.I. feline exhibitions throughout Italy with excellent results.
