That is such bull. Bengals are just like every other cat. Each is different and have thier own personalities. Each one of my bengals could not be more different then the other. Some of them get along with other cats and some don't. It depends mainly on how you raise them and what they were raised with (other cats/dog, ect.) IMO

Bengals not friendly or good with other animals... yea right... My Zoey loves dogs and cats ( she is a mix) ... My only warning is they are very active this is not a cat for the sit on a chair folks...

Too all of you with more experience when do they quit growing?? Zoey is now 12.5 inches at the sholder and about 17 inches long from sholder to start of tail...

Wow, I would not believe they bengels would not get along with other breeds. I think it all in the way they play and each cats attitude. I am speaking with no knowledge on Bengels though other than what i am told and what I am reading. I know they are lovely cats. I like a very active cats. My siamese beavis and missy are very lazy babies. Maybe I spoiled them . Keep sneding pictures of them I love looking at them and thanks everyone

Here is a Snow Bengal for you!

Wow snow bengels are very pretty also. I love the blue eye do they keep them?

Yes - they do indeed keep them!

That makes them so much prettier . My siamese beavis and missy have the most beautiful blue eyes. I just could get lost into them. One is a blue point and one is a seal point and one has light blue and the other has dark blue. I am going ot have to find a bengel cat to see in person.

I have a Bengal named Zeke (nick name Geek...he doesn't know the difference). Zeke will be a year old Sept 21. He is soooooo full of it.

We saw an ad in our local paper for Bengal kittens. I have done TONS of research on every breed I have. I knew what I was looking for. I was lucky and got Zeke for $325. The breeder was a new breeder and didn't know just how much she could sell these kittens for. I got to spend a couple of hours at her house and meet the mom, dad and littermates to my kitten.

Zeke LOVES kids, adults, cats and especially bugs. Only he eats the bugs Just before I got on the computer he was trying to jump 7 1/2 feet up a flat wall to kill a bug. He only made it 6 1/2 feet so my son gave him a boost.

He is the most vocal cat I have ever known. I think he really thinks he is talking to me. He is also very naughty as someone else described their Bengal. Just before the bug incident he was climbing a 7 foot roll of carpet pad and knocked it over. He is into everything I love him for it. He makes me laugh every day.

We also have a 4 yr old Egyptian Mau named Riley, a 4 yr old Ocicat named Savannah, and a 4 month old Chausie named Jesse James. Jesse James and Zeke are the best of friends.

Zeke is teaching Jesse how to be a terror. He has taught him how to pull food down out of the self feeder, play in the sink, cry to have the shower turned on and just get into trouble. Their favorite game to play is pounce on each other from opposite sides of a bag. They take turns hiding.

Here are pictures of my babies........

I love all my cats, but Zeke and Jesse are my favorites. They are so high energy. The other two play, but not as much.

Wow you have very pretty kitties! I love them, I told my husband we needed another cat and he is saying we don't write now. I think if he saw how pretty one was then I know he would want one. I showed him your kitties and he thought they were pretty also. I didn't get to look at all the pictures it late but I will tomorrow. Thansk for submitting them to me.

Wow, you're lucky you only paid $350 for your Bengal. Simba cost me $1000. Zeke is a cutie.

Wow - I only paid $50.00 for my Loki ( a tricolor marble Bengal) - the breeder wanted to get ride of him (actually put him down) because he was too shy to sell - YEAH Loki shy (NOT!!) he loves everyone and is such a sweet sweet boy!!

Wow put him down because he was shy? That don't seem like a way out. I am such and animal lover. I couldn't ever have a healthy cat put down. I am understand that I am not a breeder and I may not take it as serious as they may but I could not put a healthy kitty down. Maybe I need to find her incase she has another shy one. I am glad you was able to rescue the little one. I bet he is a handsome little fellow. I believe with a little love any cat can get out of the shyness.

You are right - for soem it's just a money making thing and here he is!!!

aw Loki is a buet

He is precious.

That's terrible!! My stud is very shy and dosent like to be around humans (I got him as an adult as he was already like that). I would never consider putting him down!!!! If you don't love the cats you breed you shouldn't be a breeder IMO!

here he is being shy:

by the way he is a silvered snow if you all are wondering what color he is. He has aqua blue eyes.

Wow he is just stunning and he looks like such a sweety- which I am sure he is His breeder probably never took the time to socialize him when he was young - (SAD!!). So, glad he found a great home with you!!!!

..........and Loki my Shy Boy (NOT) just needed reassurance and love. I could not have asked for better!!! He is my baby boy!!!!!!!!!!!

Loki looks so exotic! Do you have more pictures of his coat? I would love to see his coat better!!!

I'll e-mail some to you!!
