Bengals are fruitloops who love to use your legs as scratching posts and launch at them with all fours at every oportunity  Or atleast thats my recent experience of them.Beautiful creatures and fun to watch playing but can be a bit of a handful, climbing curtains etc. |

Hi Lorna, we do have a few Bengal owners here but meanwhile here's a link to a thread from a Bengal Rescue member who explains quite a lot about the temperament and dos and don'ts of owning a Bengal. http://www.catsey.com/showthread.php?t=13038&page=3 Hope you find it useful... |

This is a very interesting thread. I have just read the thread that Mags linked to above and have a question, which may be just showing my ignorance, but what the heck! What is the difference between a Bengal and an Abyssinian? |

The only experience I have of Bengals is when I stewarded at a show for a judge. They are truely stunning but a little bit too manic for me. Mind you I am used to Persians which are extremely laid back. |

Spots, Angie! No, seriously, the Bengal has been developed by crossing the Leopard cat with various domesticated breeds, Abys , Egyptian Maus and others. Abys have ticked coats, and as a rule are smaller cats than Bengals. This is anecdotal, not from my experience but Abys are calmer cats, not quite so hyper. My Sultan was an extremely intelligent cat, apparently Hreow's Rover is too! |
