Beautiful :-)
Do you let them outside unsupervised, or are they in an enclosed garden? I dare not let my cat out ( he's a Siamese) for fear of him being stolen, or run over. I wish I lived somewhere he could go out and play, he has to make do with a walk on a lead with my dog -I get some very strange looks!!! hahah
I always imagine Bengals to have a smiler temperament as a siam'-almost dog like lol

We do let them out unsupervised but they are really good, they never stray too far - just our neighbours garden and to the field over the back. When they were kittens they were walked on the lead but they just seemed like they needed a little more freedom. They are both micro chipped and neutured so that puts me at ease when i do let them out.
Temprement wise they are like dogs; they love to play fetch and enjoy playing in a bath full of water. Rather than the usual cat 'meow' they chirp, which is so sweet.
Our brown bengal is Glitterglam bred and the silver is Silversafari/Bramblewood.
Because they are bred from Asian Leopard Cats, people think they must be fairly aggressive/wild but they're as timid and good natured as any other domestic cat however they are very active and are always wanting to be involved in everything we do.

Mine do this. They have a toy called '** bird' which they love & will jump head high to get it!
I don't think these are Bengals though, they look like Savannahs to me (Serval x domestic cat), could be wrong though :)

You might be right - they came up under a search for Bengals, anyway.
They look like bloody good fun, though! :D

There from 2 different breeders - Glitterglam & Silversafari (Bramblewood)
There coat is lovely, so silky; they're also better for my partner to have as they don't seem to cause allergic reactions.

They are gorgeous! My brother-and-sister-in-law have two of them. They are fantastic little cats with such personalities. The really funny thing about them, though? You know how they're supposed to be good for people with allergies to cats? Well, that's why they got them...because my husband's brother is allergic to cats, and he doesn't have a problem. My husband, on the other hand, is more allergic to THEIR cats than to any other cats he's ever come across! :eek: :rolleyes:
