Aristakatz is a small cattery committed to developing strong genetic diversity for the Bengal breed.  It is a labour of love.

This is a part-time job for me cause during the normal work week, I am a Professor of Biochemistry and Research Scientist with a lab of 8-10 people studying a range of medical issues including brain cancer in kids, the growth and regeneration of injured neurons as well as the molecular basis of learning and memory. 

I believe in the adage 'Use or lose it' - both physically and mentally.

I also believe and quote Sir Francis Bacon - 'Knowledge is power'.  By understanding the basis of how things work, we gain the knowledge to be empowered in our future decisions. 

Our Family

We think of her daily.....
