Cāmon, whilst Photoshopping the very least you could have done was stuck a helmet on Captain Moggy.
So mum and dad are brother and sister?
My parents were looking at them a few years ago, thatās how I know about the breed.
They ended up getting a couple of Maine Coons though - reason being they are a bit more chilled. My parents are getting on a bit and didnāt want to be running around after two spirited Bengals.
Theyāve got an amazing personality. Very confident little things!
Seemingly a lot of them get knocked down on the roads because they are not afraid of cars like other cats are - so don;t let them wander near main roads. I had the local one sitting in the middle of the road at a junction in front of me ā¦ had to get out the car and shoosh it away so I could get past.
Itās fearless and sometimes just comes wandering into our house as if it owns the place too.
Proud Maine Coon owner hereā¦
They are my favorite. Goofy little bastards, at least mine is, as well as most of the stories I hear from other Maine coon guardians
Hahaā¦ yes, āspiritedā is a good way to put it. Ours are strictly indoors and otherwise only venture to our screened back porch. Itās very sad when animals are hurt like that and I canāt put myself through it, so only inside house pets for us.
Its our first time with Bengals and love them, but itās like having two year olds that can jump 5-6ā up. If you have to ask yourself, āwould or could theyā¦??ā the answer is automatically YES!! Theyāll get into anything and everything, so itās like child proofing your entire house only extending that concept to any reachable height. You can watch them evaluate and think through something and still surprise us, but thatās the fun. One of them learned to turn on/off my Xbox with her nose and it was hours of entertainment for her. Constant things like that. You just have to be careful and Bengalproof things you want safe and especially to prevent them from potentially getting hurt in the process.
Iād love a bengal, but Iām put off by exactly those reasons.
If the next one wonāt come from a shelter, I think weāll go for either another Maine Coon or a Ragdoll.

You can definitely find a Maine Coon at a shelter, I did. Both ragdoll and MC are prone to heart disease later in life though, so having a high quality diet is essential to their long term health. My guy is 15 and recently was diagnosed with some heart issues.
The last one we took home was a MC Cross from a shelter, apparently someone abandoned her in a cat carrier in a parkā¦
By the way, did you guys see that thread asking if people come here to discuss music or just gear? I think we have a new answerā¦
Bengals are amazing.
Mine is very affectionate and great company, sheās super smart, very āchattyā and they make amazing house cats!
That is one very beautiful, elegant being.
The cat I mean yeah
Sheās a beaut alright!
She really is. Not going to lie, sheās a very special little lady, and her personality takes after her namesakeā¦
We seem to read the same kind of books too?
