Cross Breeds

How do Bengal cats mix?

How do Bengal cats get on with non-Bengal? And would one Bengal resent the presence of another ?

1. A lot is going to depend on how far removed the cat is from the original Asian Leopard Cat out-cross. Cats that are closer to the original outcross will be more "difficult" in general while cats that have more domestic cat in them will behave for the most part like a domestic cat
2. I have a male Bengal and a female alley cat they get along great they play and run all over the place. The only thing is the Bengal has much more energy than the other, so when Dexter wants to play, Tulula isn't always ready to play. The Bengal does not require as much sleep as the other cat. But they love each other and Dexter is very protective of her.
3. There are several variables that will produce different outcomes Bengals get one well with other cats. Bengals do well with one another. Especially if they are of the same sex. It is more difficult to introduce Bengals to other cats when they are adults, it can be done it takes more time. I am currently fostering an adult male Bengal and introducing him to family of girls, 2 adult female Bengals and adult female Siamese, it's been a week and though they can all be in the same room and even share my lap hisses are exchanged. Bengal cats are a wonderful pet. Extremely dog like and loving creatures who adore attention and are highly energized. Also there is some merit to the lineage of Bengals, whether it be F1 ( one generation removed from wild cat ancestry) F2 and so on. Most Bengals available today are F3 and above. They have the looks of the wild cat, but little of the blood line. In some states unless you are a breeder you cannot own a F1 or F2 without a permit. Mine two girls are F1 and F2, retired show and breeder thus spayed. I had little trouble with either of them. Though the F1 is much more active and a little crazy at times but that just add to her personality. Closer to wild ancestry they are they are a bit more work. Sometimes there are more issues with Litter box trouble and getting on with other cats, as well as requiring more attention and room to really cut loose
