Bengals as pets

Bengal cats are a beautiful and muscular breed.  They make excellent pets and are thought by many to be Hypoallergenic.  Meaning that if you are allergic to cats you are less likely to be allergic to this particular species.

Because of the leopard like appearance many people associate them with Wild cats but they are generally very social and adapt well to home life, provided they are kept stimulated.

Bengal cats are very active and athletic and require lots of stimulation to keep them occupied. Bengals tend to be very social and are not shy about communicating their needs by vocalizing when they need to.

Every cat is an individual but in general Bengals make excellent house pets and get along well with other pets in the home.  They are best suited to homes with older children that will enjoy playing with them

With proper care and nutrition you can expect your Bengal cat to live for 14 to 16 years.

Because of the popularity of Bengal cats and the high cost it is highly recommended that you always keep your Bengal indoors on on a leash with you if you plan to walk them.

Bengals are naturally curious and many will play in water if it is available. 
Bengals are a cross between a wild Asian leopard cat and a domestic cat.

Bengals are very smart and have long memories so treat them right because they will remember either way.

Bengals are great jumpers and climbers and can jump up to three times their height.

Overall Bengals are gentle, intelligent cats and make excellent pets.
