I hated to get the notification that this has come up again. Patty has quit breeding as far as I know and has moved to Arizona. I know that one of the positive comments is a real person from California who has a breeder she bought from Patty. I don't think the woman ever visited her home though so she is fortunate it worked out. Hearing about the tail fault isn't very good though... I thought Patty at least knew how to evaluate the kittens she sold. It was just a big mess and I learned to keep out of it because any time I made a comment the health department or animal control showed up at my friend Wanda's house with anonymous complaints!! I know that happened to Patty once and we supported her... how she could do that to another breeder is beyond me. So be careful what you write, if she finds out who you are there will be trouble.

I purchased a female bengals from Willowbay Bengals. After taking my kitten home and to the vet did I realize it was a male. I was told by Willowbay I had gotten a female but the vet assured me it was a male. I then had to drive back to the cities to swap cats.

My new female kitten was very sick and after 5 months had to be euthinized. My kitten had a disease that she was born with Willowbay refused to give me my money back abd said that it was my fault the kitten had the disease.

I took Willowbay to court and sued her for the cost of my kitten and all my vet bills. I did win.

Willowbay Bengals then told people that she gave me a male kitten on purpose becuase she had someone willing to pay more for the female I had gotten and I was young and stupid and would never know the difference. I have talked to other bengal breeders in MN and they all say to stay away from Willowbay she is not a trust worthy breeder and does not stand behind her cats.

The fact that it was the person who bought the female kitten from you who discovered after 5 weeks that it was a male kitten - instead of YOU discovering the mistake does not count in your favour at all!
