Bengal Cat Picture #4078

Added on May 31st, 2009
This is AMBER our 5 year old Bengal Cat. I am so happy that we found this breed as they are very intelligent, playful throughout their lives, have a beautiful short hair coat & are very special ! Amber is very friendly to everyone, but cautious when she first meets a new person. Our friends & family say that she's a dog in a cats body !
   
She loves chasing a laser pen toy (never let the light go near her eyes), balls, thin rings (from jars), ice pucks in the bathtub in the hot weather (made from empty yogurt containers). She loves playing in her "pool" - we fill up a 6" tall pan (like the kind you get when you're a patient in the hospital) and place it in the sink or the tub and toss a toy in.
   
This is a common trait among Bengals ~ that they love water.
   
I took this one during a moment when we were visually connecting. Her vocalizations are unique with many variations.
   
Warning: These cats require a lot of attention & mental stimulation; they're not for people who are away from the home 12 hours a day.
