If you already own one, caring for them is a constant hustle, that’s why in this video, we bring to you 10 things you must never do to your Bengal cat. If you don’t already have one but want to get one, this list should give you an idea of what to expect.

    I have a beautifull bengal Spotted Roset cat named Rio who is 7 months old now, he is the best side kick a man can have, he's always around me, goofing around, when i go downstairs he waits upstairs to jump on me for fun when i come back up the stairs, and listens very well. For instance i don't want him to enter my bedroom, that's my domain and he tries sometimes to enter it when i leave the door open on purpose to teach him not to go in.... as soon as i see him sneaking in im saying Noooo Rio!! And he will stop... and go back out.... the rest of the house is accesible to him. He loves to cuddle and play, and i didn't know about the dark thing... but i have a street latern in front of my house so he always has a bit of light inside, so that's a lucky coincidence. He's really smart, i have a balcony (live on 1st and 2nd floor of a house) and from the first day i opened the doors so he can go on the balcony. It's to high for him to jump off and he never ever had an issue with it... he seems to understand it's not doable and this is a good thing since i don't want to have my doors closed all summer :). People that want to buy a Bengal... please buy it from a good breeder of the race, he's expensive but came in already potty trained... never EVER did he do anything outside the litterbox, and the only thing he ever wrecked was a plant, and he climbed my new curtains... so i tied them up so he couldn't reach them for a while.... now he doesn't seem to care anymore so that's a good thing!
    Love him so much! He's really a fun boy

      I'd still recommend you secure your balcony. My cat was always content to look at the world from under the balcony railing and didn't seem to realize for 4 years that he could also jump on top of it. I was so confident that he wouldn't do anything stupid that I felt no anxiety letting the balcony door open when I wasn't home - but at some point he discovered that it's much more interesting on top so I had to secure it. Could only take one bird for your side kick to forget that jumping off the balcony is not advisable.

    I have 4 cats and 2 of them are Bengal. The first Bengal is 1 yrs old. I recently got a kitten and the older one has been treating my kitten like it was her own baby. My cats never go outside because of all the many things that could happen. I heard of 2 bad boys that found a cat and they put it in a microwave. Bad boys grow up to be bad men. They get a lot of exercise by chasing with each other around my apartment. My husband and I are retired so they are never left alone. Love your channel.

    I have a one year old dotted/rosetted Bengal that doesn’t know she’s a Bengal. She’s a lap cat & sits on my lap whenever I’m watching TV. She hates water, she’s terrified if I bring her outside, she doesn’t use her cat tree or her wall gym & doesn’t pursue high places. She loves to curl up with me & sleep, thus her activity level isn’t anything special. She’s the most gentle cat I’ve ever had, displaying no aggression towards people or other pets. She loves the whole family & does not have a chosen person. she’s rather clumsy when galloping & jumping around. She just does not conform to the Bengal stereotype at all.

    I have a 2 yr old silver Blynx (bengal/lynx) and he has hated people from the day we got him. He warms up to people but it takes days. Hes cuddly when he wants to be and like playing with the little stuffed mouse toys. Hes massive and very muscular. I also have an 11mo old brown/orange bengal and she is extremely curious and vocal. She yells about everything, when she wants pets, playtime, food, snack, outside, when she's happy. So all the time. Loves cuddles and fetch. Those two are so cute together.

    Our Begal Cat is a brown charcoal marble that our son picked as a stray at his work. We knew the coat wasn't correct for a tabby. We confirmed it was a Bengal after consulting with our veterinarian, whom put us in touch with Lone Star Bengals. We ultimately named the Bengal, Shiloh. I would post a picture or two, but CZcams frowns upon such.

    My Bengals are prolific hunters and kill squirrels almost as big as a cat! When they were kittens, I took them outside and encouraged them to scratch the trees and use the bathroom outside. If you spend time with your Bengals, they're quick learners and can do most things a trained dog can!

    I adopted a kitten from a foster care cat rescue. As I got to know more about bengals I began to notice that my kitten shows many characteristics of bengals. Further research convinced me more and more as time went by until I finally ordered a DNA test. I haven’t taken it yet, but I’m convinced she IS a Bengal and this video has been very helpful. I hope to find out soon.

We also have two other cats who are about two years older, but she sometimes gives them a hard time. I can see that they really love her though. She also loves to climb trees and is always interested in birds, although has never caught one.

    I have a Bengal cat that came from a breeder. He was the runt of the litter, not colored right and number of health issues. No papers for him. No nothing because the breeder was going to destroy him. He’s got no immune system to fleas in another birth defect. His heart is not where it’s supposed to be it’s up against the rib cage. I take my cat in every month just to be checked and get a shot and then I do take him in to get a complete physical. He said he is six years old and doing pretty good he’s got birds he’s got a bat and a lot of feld mice

    I have a 1 yo spotted silver and he's super cool. We also have 2 pitbulls that he loves more than us lol. He has a 7ft cat tree, a giant cat wheel and plenty of house to run around. Hes not very talkative or affectionate toward my wife and i though. I will say i think he has picked me as his person bc he acts up when shes home and im not. As soon as i get home he relaxs and doesn't try to rip the blinds apart lol.
    Im curious as to why he isnt very affectionate though. He never lays on our laps or beside us. Always with the dogs. That being said when were standing hes constantly rubbing up against our legs and wants pets but as soon as you sit on the couch he wants nothing to do with you.

Si I Suspected She is Tabby)Bengal and Started Reseaching Bengal oersonslity Traits and Yes Shes Definitely Part Bengal She's Very Sweet yet Independent too. In A Way Shes More like a Puppy vs normal kitten shes highly Verbal and Meows a lot ti communicate and responds to her Name (Was Doing this in under 6 hours after bring her Home !). She's Very Smart & has Selected Nany if her own Toys too. She Keeps Me Laughing by her antics of play. She's Quite affectionate when not in play mode

    I have two cats. One is a tabby and the other a Bengal. Tabby’s playtime is about 30 minutes a day and she’s happy. The Bengal on the other hand plays for 20 minutes rests for 5 minutes and back at it again, and can be like that all day long. So definitely not for everyone. They eat wet food of high quality everyday at 8 PM. Besides that. Bengals are very loyal, highly intelligent, fun, they have big beautiful eyes. They follow you everywhere. They are very attentive at what you do.

At that time I was engaged and we wanted a male cat…they said the black cat has been adopted but the tabby is still available….he’s the male. I adopted him and he was tiny and a little fuzzy…then one day he strode into the living room long tail high…..I said David…he’s not a Tabby that’s a Bengal!!! We did a DNA and he’s 95%Bengal and 5%Maine Coon….we adore him….he has his own room, cat tree and a smart TV we leave on at night on a cat channel…..he’s so big now…would I change it…no..he was a gift from Heaven.

But there are many other F numbers that water down the genes and most bengals are more domesticated cat than a Asian leopard cat. It’s impossible to be 95% “bengal” since it’s a hybrid cat.
