Bengal Cat

Information

The Bengal Cat is a hybrid breed created through selective breeding between the Asian Leopard Cat (Prionailurus bengalensis) and domestic cats. This cat is known for its wild appearance, featuring a spotted or marbled coat pattern, a light or white belly, and stripes on the face and legs. Bengal Cats are very active, playful animals, with the ability to jump more than 4 feet off the ground. They are affectionate, loyal cats with a high level of curiosity, requiring plenty of exercise and stimulation to stay happy.

Eating Habits

As a carnivore, the Bengal Cat requires a diet rich in protein, particularly from fresh meat. Their ancestral breed, the Asian Leopard Cat, has a protein-rich diet consisting of birds and other prey, making meat their primary source of nutrition.

Habitat

The Bengal Cat is adapted to tropical and subtropical climates, thriving in hot temperatures and able to tolerate humidity better than some other cat breeds. The lush vegetation and diverse wildlife in this environment reflect the natural habitat of their ancestors.
