I can't wait to get one. |
a friend of mine has a bengal too, they cant all be adorable and lovely.
they can be tough to train also. my friends bengal shits everywhere, pisses everywhere, even after trying every trick in the book to get it to stop.
the thing also is, you cant really do anything to enforce your presence. you cant hit a bengal, cos apparently if you do they'll never forgive you, and im sure this applies to squirting water at them to make them stop.
its quite a common thing apparently for a bengal to piss everywhere, cos theyre 4th generation from wild [they need to be 4th gen in england or you need a wild animal licence] they mark their territory more than other cats or dogs.
another thing my mate was advised against, was letting the cat outside, he was told if he valued the bird population he'd be best off not letting it out.
and finally the chirping thing, i dont think ALL bengals do that either, my friends used to do it when it was a kitten, like if you had one of them mice on a string and bounce it around, it'd go hide behind something and stalk it whilst making that chirping sound, but it was less of a chirp and more of a predator type noise. but it dosnt do it anymore, hasnt really done it since being a kitten.
