Bengal cat. So you think you want one?

[jadehhh]

No, after seeing this video, I think I want two.

[oooVortexooo]

they have a large outdoor enclosure. Never let them alone outside

[inannarising1]

May I ask if you let them go outside?

[shyfox89]

You should train your cat... just saying.

[Sablebombe]

Your fridge is open - your stuffs gonna go off .. !!!

[codeamberstar]

My cat which is not a Bangalore does this also

[paramore12555]

Pfft I still want one >:U

[Hadra568]

"what are you doing?"

"Exactly what you don't want me to, Human"

[Chester1Rules]

LOL my cat Chester did the exact same thing with my 'Friends' box set!!! And many of you may say that is the best thing to happen to them :-)

[makeUgagify]

you have a turkish angora too? omg isnt it amasing how they can balance and sit on 3 inch of the inside part of the air conditioner to look outside and can jump everywhere like cruching tiger hidden dragon and not even knock anything over?

[deeleea]

My Burmese does this

[JungleLure]

Is the cat in the video declawed? Just like a blind person learns to rely more on sound... or a hearing-impaired person learns to rely on sight in place of sound... a declawed cat will learn to rely on its teeth in place of claws. I might just be an over-sensitive Bengal-lover but there are several clips on the video where the cat seems to want to use its claws but nothing is there.

[therandomdot]

It's ok for the kitty to eat the cardboard box as long as he remembers to poop in the recycle bin.

[VeeShannQuicken]

I have a tortie that does this same thing... The worst part is, my other cat, a Russian blue absolutely loves sleeping in boxes ... so every box he finds, the other destroys.

[slworking2]

One of our cats loves to chew on cardboard, too. Got her from a shelter and don't know what breed mixes it is for sure, but it MUST be part bengal. She chews more than any DOG I know!

[ripcord1991]

I love my Wild Maine Coon.

If I'm sitting,she's in my lap except for the dinner table.Yaks is definitely spoiled rotten.

If you can't spoil them, don't get them!

[poppicat]

I have a bog standard moggie and she does this all the time. Boxes, paper, books, any food left out even if it is in a package.

[TheDarkLord9612]

how old is it? its problebley just teething

[Rofleupagus]

I dont understand. I am new to cats and mine do all this shit all the time. Boxes and toilet paper almost exclusively.

[RoseLilies]

@Rofleupagus Hahaha, it's a cat thing. Mine scratch the door frames and random spots on the walls, even though I got them TWO scratching posts! :(

[sVolpone]

Bengal cats are high energy and get bored easily. They're like a high energy bored dog, they find something to keep themselves busy, which is often destructive. Any breed can be destructive like this, but high energy and more intelligent breeds, like the bengal, are particularly prone to it.

[BeccaEleven]

LOL, my Bengal cat tears at boxes too, he also seems to fancy licking drapes, meowing in fans, and talks non-stop. They're a quirky breed that love to get into trouble, which makes them great fun. :)

[brittnay1607]

my flametip Himalayan does the same thing..very pretty cat tho

[sonikgirl]

my regular cat does this... they're cats, cats like to destroy things.

[CycolacFan]

This may well be a cat that needs it's teeth cleaned or attended to in some way?

[GANJAxxTHExxCURE]

1:37 you sir, are the proud owner of a ninja cat

[XxSilencedNBrokenxX]

This isn't all bengals. It can be any cat if not disciplined.

[saraladiva934]

I have 3 different cats and they all did things like that..it's not just Bengal. My Bengal now, is like my other cats.

[SparklesTeaAndCake]

teething = naughty? only if you're a bad owner:/

[Noodlebum87]

my bengal ;loves boxes too! i have a massive store where i have new furniture for when i move, and she shredded most of the corners of the boxes bless her! shes such a sweetie tho!

[KFCProuductions]

you dont feed it propaly obiviously

[1hipgrannie]

lets see "talks" yup. carboard distruction, yup. spotted stripes, yup. runs the house,yup. likes showers, yup. trys to remove your pants, yup. does tricks, yup. runs the house, yup. very pretty, yup. very Loud, oh yes.

[marcik152930]

I swear I think my cat might be part Bengal!! He tears apart boxes like this, he talks all the time, and he is striped/spotted. He's not as thin as most bengals seem to be though and his face isn't the same but he has big ears lol.

[BrokenSound92]

i'm bengali... does that count?

[DarlingDareI]

My cat is a Maine Coon and he gets just like this with cardboard boxes. This year is his first christmas tree and boxed presents pile. We're awaiting his reaction.

[annabaloo4u]

I think ur cat has pica....

[DPO263]

Bengals are actually one of the cat breeds that I would LOVE to have. However, I do know that they can be quite a handful and you have to have the proper home for them which (unfortunately), we do not have. "Sniff"

[claoufaeng]

@DPO263 We have six bengals and an old moggy. All the bengals are housecats, no common sense for the garden, the moggy goes out because she always has. You need to get these cats either in pairs or get a bengal and a young cat. When we got the first, it was just her and the old mog, and she became bad-tempered and moody. Got her brother a year later, kittens this summer just gone (mum and dad now spayed, kittens me and my mum own) and she a happy, playful cat. Aside from that, no cont.

[claoufaeng]

@DPO263 "proper home" is needed, they act like dogs, in a more athletic body. They do need scratch posts, but if you get one bengal one youngish cat, you'll find the other cat will calm it down. Spraying, either neuter or do what we did at first; spray their arse with rose or lemon water when they want to spray, and keep wood furniture covered. Three of ours never left the grey fuzzy stage though, so if it's the markings you're after, go for the more expensive cats.

[sweetguy410]

yummy! cardboard boxes must taste so good, lip smacking good. if it likes cardboard, maybe it will like ediable cardboard(pop tarts). lol :D

[animallover25f]

Wow, looks like this breed of cat you need ti ENTERTAIN them all the time?!!

My daughter has a Maincoon who is almost trouble free.

He doesn't care if he is home all day by himself, he doesn't touch human food,in fact, HE DOESN'T LIKE ANYONE!!!

By the way, he is a rescued cat, so, may be he has some baggages that we didn't know about,but

HE IS SURE HANDSOME!!!

[DarthBismarck]

@animallover25f Yeah, rescued cats can have some personality problems. I used to donate time to an animal shelter, saw more than a few cats come through the door that had some major trust issues. I worked with them personally best as I could, but there were some I didn't even dare go near.

[kissthisangel744]

I love my Bengal beauty...and mine loves paper as much as yours loves cardboard :)

[lastwinj]

delicious and nutritious tastes just like chicken

[oooVortexooo]

As a pet owner of 3 Bengals 1 angora and 2 domestics I understand what you mean - however no-one should ever disguard a pet becasue it doesnt " agree" with them or their lifestyle, those who do are lower than scum.

[capnquack]

@oooVortexooo Well, in general, since these cats are not naturally found in shelters, it is wise to find out the type of animal you are getting into when you are buying one for thousands of dollars from a breeder. They are always going to be big, energetic cats who will stimulate themselves when you aren't around. If you have a house that is immaculate...you'd be much better served with a less expensive, less destructive, less WILD cat.

[kevinpenagaguy]

@oooVortexooo so you're saying even though a pet would be incredibly inconvenient in my lifestyle such as : I work all day so I should leave my bengal cat all alone for 12 hours while it tears up the house, I should still get one? That's a load of crap go give it to a toilet.

[Kaya4114]

@kevinpenagaguy Naw what I think they meant was more like if they already GOT the pet, and then got bored of it or it didn't agree with their lifestyle, that they abandon it. That is what I think the person meant by "people who discard pets because it doesn't agree with their lifestyle are scum." I agree that discarding a pet, aka abandoning it, or "setting it free" are scum.

[CoastieWife01]

Females in heat will also spray every surface of your house. Just FYI before you buy. Know what you are getting yourself into before getting a "COOL" animal that you know nothing about and will give away because you didn't foresee difficulties.That goes for any living thing.

[lighthope]

Oh good, it's not just my Scottie who has a personal vendetta against all cardboard. He's also gone after my Kindle a few times, but I've been near enough to rescue it in time.

[ResolvingInsanity]

That's what my cat does.. Lol. She's no where near a bengal though, xD just some american black short hair. Everytime she sees a cardboard box, she hides in it and chews on it.

[64forestkat]

My seal point does the same thing when she is frustrated

[yenniekins44]

My cousin used to have a bengal (she was unfortunately run over and she was very small, RIP Inara) and she had an expensive taste in expensive leather bags...

[GHOSTWRITERL]

I like how she just swats at you all like "Go away, I'm busy".

[SuzanneBa]

My little swine chews books as well! Lucky for him he's so sweet, loving and beautiful it distracts from the library fines I've had to pay.

[SirSoggington]

Better the box than your face.

[crysalin11]

Our vet told us it was the glue. It was like catnip to them. We couldn't keep cardboard in the house at all.

[mtijger]

mmm box num tasty box ,go away my Box aah , box num num :P

[Faeleena]

Your fridge door is open!!

[Hadra568]

"what are you doing?"

"Tearing up a box, stupid. What does it look like?"

[CazyWazyWooWoo]

I distinctly remember my siamese chewing a hole in the box of his biscuits, and then bringing in a baby rat and dumping it into the newly made hole to delight me next time i fed him!

[Aceticacidplease]

Yup, my cats have their favourite cardboard box here in our room, too. They paw at it, rip strips off of it, and just generally make a mess everywhere. I love watching them play with it, it's cute.

[netlorens]

All of my grey tabbies have been the same way. Cats just like cardboard. ツ

[denisehopper10]

my 9 yr old mainecoon does the same stuff he has his own box on the floor

[wrnglrgirl]

LOL mine do this! love it! lol

[oooVortexooo]

She is beautiful - Loves carboard deconstruction

[SukatoKjolen]

A box full of fruit and it eats the box.

[screamingmimi90]

My family loves how I am constantly asking my Bengal "What are you doing?!" As if he'll answer. lol

[skaberry12]

My siamese is just as bad. But I still want to get one. :) They can cause trouble together.

[MadShepard]

this was a beaver in a former life chewing on what was a tree in it's former life...just goes to show some things never change ;)

[joejosh90]

aww, the cute little trouble maker :)

[mintsiez]

its better the box than your couch

[Esteemph]

My Bengal is also obsessed with destroying cardboard boxes and magazines. He's can also open the nightstand drawer and kitchen cupboards to get at his treats.

[Hailfall]

@Esteemph granted i had bengal mix but mine did that too.. smart little bugger. Shame my ex gave him away when he got pissed at me.

[watsonvillian]

My snow bengal is about 3 months now...she is a thief..does everything 200 mph...and loves to climb. If you want a challenge get one of these kitties. They are hilarious. Mine also likes make squeeky sounding meow's. I am hooked on these cats now. They are gorgeous and good pets.

[pretty0x0poison]

"MOM I is hungry...I just ated your box!!! Provide cat food or you're next!" Yes...I want a Bengal....my tabby cats are equally as naughty. Although they usually stick to toilet paper, paper towels...and bread. Bengals are so beautiful and intelligent....even if naughty. :P

[MegaLemonCookie]

"What are you doing?" "Destroying your fruit box. What does it look like?" XD I still want one.

[dtillman74]

thats not a nice kitty

[atsglo]

i not changing my mind !!!!! they are adorable like atencion!!!!

[cageybee777]

pa bashke blyat imu day paru raz tak on perestanet huyhey stradat

[dumaisis]

our leather furniture didnt stand a chance against his claws.....bengals are fun though

[OddlyIncredible]

Jackson, my 30 lb. MegaBengal, will only sharpen his 3/4" long (!!!) claws on cardboard boxes. This is fine and good, and saves on furniture and carpeting expenses, but also means I have to empty any boxes immediately or they'll be shredded. (Jackson can punch through double-walled corrugated in one pass. It doesn't take him long at all to work a box over but good!)

[ncolvin05]

@OddlyIncredible o.o 30lb? that's not a bengal, that's a guard cat.

[jasmineamberr]

i have a ginger and white domestic, and she does the exact same thing, just chews up everything, you say 'no honey' and she sits there for another few minutes untill you look away an chews on more stuff.

[kozmon0t]

of course your cat will misbehave if all you do is sit there and whine

[ThaqifLikesDelta]

He needs a chewing gum!

[mooame]

maybe he needs a chew toy? o.o

[angusandthetriplets]

One of our bengals eats his way through flip flops, boxes of pasta, styrofoam, cardboard, electrical cords, bags of flour...the list goes on.

[xxmrbloodxx]

lol my cat always hides in boxes

[peaceflmeadow]

One of my two bengals has a thing against cardboard as well. I see the destruction she can do in one bite and it makes me glad she has great bite inhibition when playing!

[Bregmaiden]

lol, my cat does that, toss a piece of polystyrene on the floor (from a package or something) he'll go wild, my cat loves destroying polystyrene

[ScubaTiger]

My bengal isn't much for boxes, but every so often I'll get a piece of junk mail with a certain kind of ink that he just goes wild over.

[nr1gato]

My bengal cat does the same thing :)

[Bo0oMBoX]

aww my cat does this :D

[abu05126]

soooooooooooooooooo cute chew chew chew away

[bengaltv]

My two Bengals do this constantly. Should have seen the mess when we moved house! They also collect and shred the post for me each day too!

[strumfoHELLen]

my cat does the same thing at every paper box.and basicly she is sleeping only in paper boxes or suitcases.
