What's Make Your Bengal Have Health Problem!!!!
Domesticated Bengal cats are a relatively new breed with the unique markings of their wild ancestors and the personalities of house cats. As breeders have continued to perfect this breed, they have become friendly and popular pets among cat enthusiasts. However, inbreeding has made Bengal cats more prone to certain genetic diseases.
One major health problem Bengal cats face is progressive retinal atrophy, or PRA. This disease causes the receptors in the eye to deteriorate, eventually causing the cat to go blind. This disease is becoming less common, due to the fact that it is carried by a recessive gene that both parents must possess in order to pass it on to their offspring. However, there is no known way to screen for this gene, so breeders cannot guarantee that their kittens will be symptom-free.
Cataracts
Bengal cats are also more likely to develop cataracts. This eye problem, also common in humans, causes the lens of the eye to become opaque, resulting in progressive vision loss until the animal eventually becomes blind. However, corrective surgery can restore the cat's vision.Cardiomyopathy
Another growing concern for Bengal cats is the presence of two common heart conditions, known as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thickening of the heart muscles) and dilated cardiomyopathy (thinning of the heart muscles). Both these conditions prevent the heart from transporting blood as it should. Since both these diseases present with few outward signs, cats often become critically ill within just a few hours of appearing completely healthy. Research about these diseases is currently incomplete.Inflammatory Bowel Disease
In feline inflammatory bowel disease, another common condition among Bengal cats, an infection lives inside the digestive tract, preventing food from being digested properly. These digestive problems cause the cat to experience frequent diarrhea and vomiting, and may lead to dehydration. While feline IBD can usually be controlled through diet and medication, dehydration may prove to be fatal if left untreated.Feline Leukemia
While feline leukemia is a hazard to all cats, Bengal cats are especially prone to it. Early signs include weakness, fatigue and weight loss. As the condition worsens, cats develop fevers, tumors and seizures. Once the disease has entered the later stage, it is nearly always fatal.Food Poisoning
Bengal cats have especially sensitive stomachs and are more likely to become sick from contaminated food. Because of this, these cats should never eat table scraps. It is also helpful to invest in a high-quality cat food instead of a discount brand.Monday, 28 March 2011
WHY DOES CAT BITE YOUR HAND
You have settled into your favorite armchair, perhaps reading the final chapters of a gripping novel. Suddenly you are aware of the imploring stare of your cat sitting at your feet. You invite her onto your lap. Gently you begin to stroke her and your cat signals her appreciation with an audible purr.
One hand holding your book the other hand continuing to get your mouser, you again get lost in your novel. All is well in the world with you and with your cat.
Suddenly your cat bites your hand!
Why did kitty do that? Why did she bite the hand that strokes her?
The experts don't agree on exactly why it is that some cats enjoy being petted, but end up biting. One thing that they do agree on is that when kitty bites at you, it's a sure sign that she has decided that she's had enough stroking.
Cats differ in the amount of petting they will accept, and not all cats respond by biting when they have had enough. Some cats simply jump from your lap and saunter off to investigate interests anew. But many cats will nip you and your animal is one of them.
Could you have known that a bite was on its way? Yes, there are often signs that cats give before biting. And, if you had not been so wrapped up in reading your novel, you may have paid heed to your little pets warning.
If kitty's tail begins to twitch, in a rolling flick, watch out! She's getting ready to chomp at your hand.
If your cats ears start turning towards the back of her head, or flatten against her head, that's a warning a bite is coming.
If your cat suddenly becomes restless, or stiffens and stares at your hand, she could be about to nip you.
If you noticed any of these signals, simply stop stroking your cat. Your pet will either stay on your lap or jump down and walk off, whichever happens you don't get bitten.
What you should not do is punish your cat for biting your hand. That simply does not work. Cats are more likely to identify the punishment with you rather than with their bad cat behavior. If you miss a warning sign and kitty manages to get her jaws around your hand, try to resist the temptation to pull your hand away or push your cat away. Simply freeze. Chances are that your cat will not sink her teeth in, she has got her message across, and you have stopped petting her.
If you try and push your cat away it is likely that she will fight with your hand resulting in skin punctures for you. (An animal bite can become infected quite easily, if your cat does draw blood clean up the wound scrupulously and seek the advice of your doctor.)
Why do some cats behave in this aggressive way? The degree of tolerance to petting may be genetic, or it may be learned behavior. If when your cat was a kitten you allowed her to chew on your hand in play, she learned that biting human hands was an OK thing to do. So, when she feels that she has had enough stroking (she's the boss remember,) she will bite at your hand to let you know - if you ignore her warning signals.
so be careful.

Knowing About Pattern And Colour Of Bengal
Name origin
When we hear the name Bengal, images of the fierce Bengal tigers come to mind. However, the Bengal gets its name from the scientific name of the Asian Leopard Cat, which is Prionailurus bengalensis. And indeed, the Bengal looks more like a leopard than a tiger.
Physical traits and behavior
The Bengal is a medium to large cat. The adult females weigh from 7-12 pounds on average. Bengal males weigh from 11 to 19 pounds. Sleek and strong, they indeed look like wild cats.
The Bengal’s coat is dense but soft to the touch, and it’s either marbled or spotted. The markings are well defined and include spots, rosettes (bi-color markings) and stripes. The Bengal can live an average of 15 years.
Color patterns
Bengals come in many color and pattern variations. The base color alone can go from silver-gray to brown. And then you add spots, stripes and swirls and you get a beautiful, exotic little beast.
These are some of the colors/patterns Bengal house cats come in:
Here few pattern and colour of bengal;
- Brown Spotted Tabby
- Brown Marbled Tabby
- Seal Sepia Spotted Tabby
- Seal Sepia Marbled Tabby
- Seal Spotted Lynx Point
- Seal Marbled Lynx Point
- Rosettes

ENJOYING ENTERTAIN YOUR LOVELY BENGAL
A Bengal Cat is a domestic cat that has an appearance of a wild cat, however, has the temperament of a domestic cat. It is separated by at least three generations from the original crossing between an Asian Leopard and a domestic cat. They are high-strung, and entertaining these pets is a 24-7 job!!!
so,lets check out what they LOVE.....
- SAVE BOXES - Bengals enjoy hiding in boxes or covered areas. Save a few spare boxes for them to climb into. This will entertain them for hours.
2. SCRATCHING POST - Purchase a large multi-level cat tree or scratching post. The bigger, the better, when choosing one of these for your cat.
3. ANOTHER BENGAL - Bengals love other pets to play with, and even though domestic cats will do, a domestic cat won't be able to keep up with a Bengal, which is the reasoning of why it would be best, when purchasing a Bengal, that you purchase them in pairs.
4. EVOTE ATTENTION - Bengals thrive off of attention. It's like having a two year old child around all the time. If you don't give them attention, they'll start entertaining themselves in other ways. It can be anything from tearing up the toilet paper or paper towels, to chewing on something they're not allowed to chew on.
WHAT'S UP???? So think u fully intertain ME????i want more and more like accompany you go dating with your partner...huhuhuhu....have a nice day.bye bye....
