my cat eats anything that is a string (hoodie strings, pants, toys with strings)

does anyone else have this problem?

I try my best to put everything up but he’ll get into my hamper and chew my clothes strings and eat them. He has chewed and swallowed a small wire, a cat toy that had a long rope/string. He ends up pooping it out or throw up but i’m worried it’ll get stuck eventually. Is there anyway to get him to stray away or do i just need to find a way to keep it more out of reach

Bed hog

I swear its like this most mornings particularly when its cold he gets on in the early hours and I end up hanging off the edge. Its the mad look on his face like I disturbed his lordship!!!

So much for being wild ones... he has his moments but he is such a mamas boy 💙

Estou devastado

Meu bengal morreu, ele não estava cmg nem há 1 ano
 começou perder peso e em uma semana estava em sofrimento e morreu
 sem causa aparente
 vacinado, chipado, estava normal!

Acho que foi alguma intoxicação

Não sei o que pensar
 eu postava ele diariamente no meu Instagram, não sei o que fazer.

Ele nĂŁo tinha nem 2 anos

My Girl Nakoma. Just Joined

She will be seven this August. Been through a lot with this girl by my side. Failed engagement and the sudden passing of my mother. Can be loud and wild at times but also very sweet as we all know the temperament.

What part does your bengal love scratched/rubbed the most?

For my boy it’s the chin skritches. He always leans into it.

Not all hand play is bad

There’s a ton of comments I see that say “never play using your hands!”

I’m just posting this to show that it’s not the end of the world if you do. Murphy never pierces my skin with his teeth or nails, he’s incredibly gentle. I’ve never had anything negative happen from playing with my hands, he understands “spider fingers” is a game and understands when it’s over. Even when he broke his claw and was in incredible pain, he didn’t actually bite me when I was treating it, he just like fake bit me, like pretended to bite like in the video but didn’t actually use force, if that makes sense.

He has bitten the vet and techs, they give me pills to sedate him before every visit now 😂

Wish I got a brother for Koji sooner

Was on the fence about adding another to the family as Koji (5 year old Male) has been really aggressive towards other cats on our daily walks. Followed Jackson Galaxys video and was able to introduce them within 2 weeks. Since then I’ve noticed Koji is less bored and doesn’t wake me up at 5am every morning! Wish I got him a brother when he was a kitten, I didn’t realise how social bengals are

Looking for advice before becoming a Bengal parent

Hello everyone,

I’ve always wanted a cat and I’m seriously considering getting a Bengal, so I’d love some advice from people who have experience with the breed.

I’m a first-time cat owner, so I want to make sure I’m making the right decision and fully understand what I’m getting into. I’d also really appreciate connecting with someone who’s open to chatting more in-depth.

A bit about me:

- I live alone in an apartment in Toronto, Ontario

- I work as a software developer (mix of office and work-from-home days)

- I’m looking for a companion I can bond with, ideally a cat that’s interactive and somewhat trainable

A few specific questions I have:

- How do Bengals do in apartments, realistically?

- Are they manageable for a first-time owner, or would you strongly recommend against it?

I’ve done some research, but I’d really value honest, real-life experiences — both the good and the bad.

Thanks in advance!

Cat Peeing Outside Litter Box

Hello,

I have 2 bengal cats. Several months ago, one of them stopped peeing in the litter box. He now either pees outside in the garden, or in a corner of the house.

All tests seem to indicate that this is not a urine infection. One vet suggested this could possibly be due to anxiety, but there haven’t been any sudden changes in environment - so unsure what could cause that.

Looking for advice.

Am I feeding my Bengal too much?

Hi,

We have just re-homed a 2 year old male Bengal. We really struggled to sleep with him the first few nights as he was being a typical Bengal and clawing/scratching/meowing/climbing up the wardrobe/hitting us in the face etc 😂

We did some research and have started feeding him directly before bed, doing lots of play before bed and keeping him mostly awake in the evening. Since the feeding especially things have improved, but now I’m worried I feed him too much!

He’s having:

1 pouch of wet cat food at around 7am (complete)

Dry food to graze on in the day time

1 pouch of wet cat food around 6pm (complete)

And then at night I am leaving out dry food and a lick mat of a combination of non-complete wet food (the healthiest I can find) and some protein.

Is this way too much?! He’s devouring it all and I read that young males need an extra amount of food but don’t want to over feed. I’m worried because he’s moved he is just having anything that’s in front of him because he is worried about the reliability of his next meal.

Thank you for any help!
