1. Cavies should never be with any other animal even if you are there. The cat will attack, no matter how great the cat is. Even a fancy rat is not safe to have around a cavy.
2. Hi there...ideally as the other answerer stated it isn't in the best interest to entrust any cat around any small critter (even at any age for the cavy). Bengal cats as well as any other cats have a strong instinctual prey drive and this could be deadly as a consequence for the cavies. If you do adopt a Bengal or any cat be sure to secure the cavies well away from the cat.
