About the Bengal

The Bengal is a medium cat breed originating in United States (Asian leopard cat hybrid). Adult cats typically weigh 8 to 15 pounds and live 12 to 16 years. The breed is described as athletic, water-curious, vocal, intelligent.

Active households that can offer vertical space, puzzle feeders and daily interactive play. Bengals are among the most physically demanding cats you can adopt. Homes that are empty all day, or adopters expecting a decorative lap cat. A bored Bengal redirects that energy into cupboards, taps and counters. Note that hybrid generations closer than F4 face ownership restrictions in some Canadian jurisdictions, so confirm local rules before applying.

Adult Bengals need about 45 minutes of daily exercise; adolescent cats typically need 60 minutes. The coat is short-coated with moderate shedding, and brushing every 4 weeks keeps the coat manageable.
