[15756] Alison Driver of Runamok Bengal Cattery - Breeders sharing about her cats

Oct 26, 2009 ALISON DRIVER HAYJA and ELAINE O'NEILL so called ethical breeders by: Anonymous Alison keeps over 40 bengal cats,plus she also breeds persian cats,I would alledge anyone with this number of cats is a kitten farmer. There is no way that someone with this number of cats can give each animal individual attention or meet all the animals needs.Yes its true i have heard Alison does not believe in vets abilities or take her cats to the vets.I believe she gains some sort of sick thrill from doing autopsies on her own animals and watching many kittens die slowly from cleft pallets and similar as she is too scummy to take them to the vet.She also breeds a lot of cats with faults cleft paletes,flat chests, heart conditions,not to mention long haior white spots etc.I really think that someone should alert the authoritie as to how this woman houses her cats ,I have heard from others personal experiences the cats conditions are horrific,I have alsio heard that she buk ships kittens crammed into carriers toa Hong Kong buyer on a regulasr basis for use in the fur trade and I know for a fact that often kittens are registered incorrectly.Why does this supposedly intelligent,ethical breeder not est all her cats for HCM a real problem in the Bengal breed, MONEY! thats why.But of course Alison is in a place of some postion in TIBCS so we should all bow down and lick the ground she walks on, I don't think so moreover we should walk behind her with buckets of bleach to kill off the filth that she leaves in her wake! Now To haja Almaz the woman who bought a imported stud cat from Elaine o'neill.his cat is kept in a tiny cage and locked in a crate at night so as not to annoy the neighbours, does this cat not have the right to jump and stretch or be treated humanely?Why has the cat that has produced several offspring with HCM not been tested by his owner? MONEY thats why, Hayja doesn't want to loose out and be known as having a cat with HCM well wake up everyone knows, your not gaining any respect continuing to breed from him. Elaine O'neill who imported a cat that was intrusted to her by an overseas breeder for use in her program, when she got a big tax bill decided to sell the cat to some little known breeder without any discussion with his breeder overseas.Why did she do this MONEY! Lets face it these three breeders don't give a toss about the welfare of their cats they want money pure and simple and they choose to get it by pumping litter after litter often out of old or unfit cats that should have been pet homed long ago.

Oct 26, 2009 ALISON DRIVER RUNAMOK BENGALS by: PHIL I live at My Lawley I own two Bengal cats that were bred by Alison Driver,Runamok Bengals.I can no longer keep these cats and they require new permanent homes although it is very difficult to place them.The female has a heart condition and is extremely timid it will take her a long time to settle in ,the male doesn't like being held. I have contacted Alison in regards to this b ut she has not been much assistance.Coincidently I after googling I also contacted Lisa from Exoticatz Bengals.Lisa was extremely helpful and supportive.

Oct 26, 2009 Kellie by: Anonymous Couldn't agree with you more about Alison Driver from Runamok. 2 of her cats were recently found in a pound, unsociable and unhealthy, plus another 2 as of a couple of days ago, also need re-homing, i had the owner email me asking for help. so you see people, Alison thinks she is the best of everything, but she isn't and slowly she is digging her own grave, don't waste your breath about her, she is doing all her own damage..... HA HA,,,,, Lisa, keep doing what you are doing, we support you and we don't need a bengal bitch group (Referring to bengal banter) to protect us, or to make us "appear" to be breeding nice bengals, because you know, that what you are breeding is true to type, health and personality. you dont need a group of "would-be-disciples" to make you your an amazing woman, Alison needs that to make her feel worthy, after all she is a washed up bad actor and needs to get a rush from somewhere..... HA HA... Have a nice day people!

Sep 30, 2009 You cant be serious - but wait theres more. .... by: Anonymous I agree. I would strongly suggest not buying a kitten from Runamok Bengals as her cats are over crowded, screaming out for food, in bad health, or maybe if you want to rescue a cat "yes" buy from her. I have even seen long haired Bengals on her web site, "what the." I would not suggest buying from Almaz Bengals either, she calls herself a breeder but has only breed a handful of kittens in 4yrs, her cats call all year long to be mated and her boy lives in a small cage out the back with no attention ever given to him as she says he's feral, i wonder why ya dumb sh*t.

  • RIDICULOUS to first & last comment. This whole blurb posted on this site has been copied & pasted from another site, on which all posts have been written by a particular malicious stalker. Quite simply the same malicious stalker has copied & pasted her own comments here. A complete no-brainer for anyone who is an ethical TIBCS (The International Bengal Society) member.

    The stalker is on the Banned List for good reason.

  • Alidson Driver is spreading "malicious" gossip to Bengal breeders that certain Bengal lines produce HCM. Alison has no proof whatsoever to back what she is claiming. Interesting that it appears Alison doesn't even HCM screen herself yet she runs down breeders who do HCM screen. See: http://www.runamokatz.iinet.net.au/index.htm
    Allison: All Bengal lines carry for HCM, all breeds carry for HCM, even SPCA cats carry for HCM. The best breeders can do is HCM screen. Shame on you for your personal attacks against good breeders.

  • How is it that people are still listed as being banned or suspended from the TIBCS over 12months after they were first posted on their and also long after their memberships have not been renewed either by choice or not by choice.

    I feel a 12month posting is well and trulely long enough and it should be removed from there on out, I also would not suggest to people to become members in the first place as I believe it is alot on here say not actual facts.

    Just how many of these chases have actually been through the propper channels, court etc.
    That is the only real place these things can be sorted out and heard fairly with out biast.

    Why is it that there have been many complaints about many other breeders and they dont get placed on the list, I myself have been out of pocket, with a sad unhealthy cat from another breeder but you dont see me posting etc name dropping and so on, I delt with it through the breeder and other avenues, how it should be done.

    Goodness me give it a rest......

  • If people that are commenting were educated enough to actually be able to spell, I would take this more seriously. As it stands, I'm taking this as a bunch of uneducated hillbillies with a grudge trying to make out like they know what they are talking about.

  • I can't understand these posts..I can only go by personal experience, but I found Alison to be a very caring and genuine person to deal with. I bought a former breeder (male) from her, and he arrived in superb condition, well groomed, healthy, happy and a lot more well adjusted than many of the authors of some of these posts. I don't pretend to be a Bengal expert, but I certainly know a contented soul when I meet one, and my recent experience has delivered just that.

  • wow I was shocked to come across these posts. I have 2 beautiful marbled boys from Alison. They are going on 3years old now and have had no physical health problems. Initially they were wary but with time and lots of love and affection they are both loving and socialised very well with my other cats.

  • Alison is a greedy lying piece of work, that over populates her cattery. Each cat doesnt get the attention it deserves and therefore most of them are feral. Push the money out is her motto, not really giving a damn for the cats themselves.shame on her.

  • WOW - and they call school kids bitchy!!!! We have just bought home our 2nd and 3rd babies from Alison and they are doing just fine. We lost our 1st baby after 4 1/2 years to a snake and Alison kindly gave us the choice of some of her amazing new marbles!! We had ZERO health problems with our boy and we always check our new babies. Cleft and hair lip can be defects BUT are recessive genes so they may not show AND you cannot screen for them. Yes Alisons cats do have a free run of her home - but that is just it they are part of her home. Those of you who know Bengals absoloutely know any Bengal would not tolerate being unhappy and would let you know, yet when you enter Alisons home the babies and adults all great her with their happy Bengal chat - Grow the F up people and be grateful to have the lovely breed in Australia!!!!

  • I too have dealt with Alison and i have never seen a more loving owner. All her cats are treated well and she can tell you the characteristics/personalities of each and every one which really amazed me. We bought two cats from her - one was very shy but within 2 months she has become loving and sits in our lap. The 2 of them are healthy, happy cats and i have nothing but the utmost respect for Alison. One time we fed them the wrong food and Alison took my distress call at close to midnight. She has always been there to share in the joy of our 2 beautiful babies. Thanks Ali - love your work. Obviously people have nothing better to do than be bitter and twisted and hold grudges.
