Many new owners and new breeders sum up the Bengal cat in similar ways but what makes the Bengal cat unique among felines?

Routine terms like confident and energetic are tossed around often. While true, these things can said about almost every breed. If you are considering a Bengal cat for a pet, here is what you need to know. They are almost always talkative to a point of demanding. Bengals are hyper-confident. Training them is easy, but start early for the best results. 

Once they experience the outdoors, they will demand it. Your Bengal will attempt to get out and most often meow heavily at the door to be let out. Make this decision early as to if you will have an indoor and outdoor Bengal. In addition, indoor Bengal cats are very active and playful to a point you really must have the time to give them. Take this characteristic seriously before making the decision to own one. 

Bengals have a coat that is unlike other cats because they are pelted. It’s not just a claim, the proof stems from their single coat. Since they don’t have an undercoat they shed very little. It makes them a somewhat easier cats to own in terms of house cleaning. It doesn’t make them hypoallergenic. Yet, that trait does make them considerably easier to own around members of the family with cat allergies. Another unique item of note is that due to sporadic hollow shafts of hair, they have what’s known as ‘glitter’. The hairs produce an appearance of gold sprinkled across their coat. 

Bengal cats have many dog-like qualities that manifest more often in their breed than in most other breeds. As you explore our site, you’ll gain a true perspective of what the Bengal cat experience is really like.
