What is a Bengal?
The Bengal cat originally descended from crosses between domestic and wild cats, particularly the Asian Leopard and Amur Leopard. The bengal was developed to reproduce the spotted pattern, colors, and facial qualities of the Asian Leopard Cat. The bengal has a wild past, but the bengal cat is domestic in personality, being quick and curious and dog like. Alirose Bengals only uses 6th generation domestic breeders in our program.
Bengals are very people orientated and bond with them quickly. They have dog-like characteristics like playing fetch and playing in water. Some of my kittens have been known to jump on a float in the pool! They are curious, intelligent and always want to know what is going on. They will keep you amused.Bengals are quick to learn. You can teach your bengal how to walk on a harness. Make sure you purchase a harness especially for cats and not dogs. Bengals are easily toilet trained.
How big do they get?
Bengals can range from 8 to 18 pounds. They are a muscular, medium sized cat. Males are usually larger than females. The bengal will reach full maturity at 3 years of ageDouble click here to edit this text.
What do they eat?
Bengals do well on a natural food, with no preservatives, no corn or additives. Life's Abundance cat food has been my bengals food of choice for over years. I keep the bowl full at all times. My cats are free fed. The bengal needs more protein in their diet. Life's Abundance has 38% protein. Cooked or boiled chicken and/or boiled ground beef, can be used as a treat.

Do they get along with other animals? Children?
They get along great with other animals in the household. I have placed them with pedigreed cats, mixed breeds, younger and older cats, dogs, ferrets, and birds. Bengals make a wonderful family pet for all ages. The bengal will bond quickly. Their curiousity and alertness will entertain you for hours. They will cuddle and be your lap cat as you pet their tummies
How do I pick my kitten, male or female and what to expect when you visit the kittens.
Health and Personality should be top priority. Males or females can be loving and personable. You have to play with them to see which one is for you. Most likely the kitten will pick you! Genetics plays an important role in the personality, socialization secondary. Your breeder is an important part of how well the kitten will socialize and adapt. Alirose specializes in selective breeding for disposition and is well known in the show ring for handlable sweet show cats
When coming to see the kittens, please note.
Some bengal kittens may be a little shy at first, especially if there is noise, voices and sounds that they are not used to, ie little children being active, or a deeper voice than mine. Please give them a little more time to warm up, they are just like little children, some are slower then others to trust and feel comfortable. Moving a kitten from the birth home is stressful and strangers walking into their home sometimes frightens them. It may take a little patience, but in no time they will move right into your home and be your best friend.
Sometimes colognes, aftershave, gum, cigarette smoke will frighten a young kitten. Please do not wear perfumes when coming to look at kittens. The kittens do not relate to these smells. After you adopt your kitten and get him home, you go about your normal life and the kitten will adapt to your home and how it smells and sounds. Cats can smell 14 times greater than humans.
