Bengalmusiccats

Bengalmusiccats is a Bengal cat cattery in Spokane, WA in the Inland Northwest near Coeur d'Alene. Rimma Barko has bred Bengal cats for over a decade and is a member of The International Cat Association, with all cats health-tested for common genetic concerns.

Her cats live in a home environment where kittens receive daily socialization and gentle handling alongside household pets and children. Each kitten is introduced to household routines, including interactions with other family pets and short car rides, for a smooth transition to a new home. Barko’s approach emphasizes mental stimulation through interactive play and gentle exposure to various sounds.

Several adult cats from her program have earned regional show titles, reflecting a balance of conformation and temperament. One recent review notes the kittens’ affectionate nature and adaptability to busy family life. Barko also offers ongoing guidance on nutrition and enrichment to support the cats’ lifelong well-being.
