Description

He is an affectionate, intelligent and incredibly playful cat with a big personality. He loves attention, interactive play and being involved in absolutely everything you do. He is also very vocal and isn’t shy about letting you know when he wants something! He isn’t particularly fond of being picked up or carried around, but he absolutely loves cuddles and fuss on his own terms. When he comes to you, he enjoys affection, and he will happily sleep next to you or curl up on your lap. 🐾 Personality and ideal home As a typical Bengal, he is extremely energetic, clever and playful. He needs plenty of stimulation, interaction and companionship to keep him happy. We strongly feel he would be happiest either: * In a home with another Bengal or a young, playful cat who can match his energy and enjoy playing with him. * Or in a home where someone is around regularly and can dedicate plenty of time to interactive play, attention and enrichment. Please understand that Bengals are not low-maintenance cats. He needs an owner who understands the breed and can meet his physical and mental needs. If he becomes bored or doesn’t receive enough attention, he can become destructive and get into mischief around the house! He needs an environment where his energy can be channelled positively. 🏡 Indoor-only home He is an indoor-only cat and is absolutely not suitable for free roaming. He would be very unlikely to return if allowed to wander outside. However, he absolutely loves spending time in a secure catio or enclosed outdoor space. A home with a suitable catio or secure outdoor enclosure would be a huge advantage. ❤️ Health, care and background He is: * Neutered * Microchipped (microchip number will be provided and transferred to his new owner) * Fully litter trained * Accustomed to both wet and dry food *Flea and worm treatment up to date He also enjoys raw meat. He needs good-quality food to maintain his beautiful, healthy and shiny coat. TICA registration: He is TICA registered. However, his registration paperwork will remain with us and will not be transferred to his new owner. Proof of his TICA registration can be shown upon collection. Vaccinations: He originally came to us vaccinated, but unfortunately his vaccinations are no longer up to date. He has been an indoor-only cat, and we missed his annual boosters. Unfortunately, we also cannot locate his original vaccination certificate, so we cannot confirm exactly when his last vaccinations were given. As a result, he would need to restart the primary vaccination course rather than simply receive a booster. We are happy to discuss two options: * His new owner can arrange the vaccination course with their vet. * Alternatively, we can arrange and pay for his vaccinations before rehoming. This would mean a higher rehoming fee, as the primary course requires two appointments approximately 3–4 weeks apart. He would only be ready to leave once the course is completed. A little about his past ❤️ He originally came from a registered, licensed breeder, but unfortunately, the conditions and care he experienced were far from what we would consider acceptable. We can explain more about his background to genuinely interested potential owners. We purchased him when he was approximately 9 months old. Despite his age, he had apparently never had proper human interaction. He was extremely frightened of people, wasn’t litter trained, had no basic household manners and had been living outdoors in a very small catio with other cats. He came to us with very little understanding of normal home life. We have spent a lot of time working with him, building his confidence and teaching him everything he needed to know. He is now a completely different cat. He is no longer frightened of people, is fully litter trained and has settled into home life beautifully. He was neutered by us, slightly later than usual because of his circumstances when he arrived. Occasionally, if there is a female cat around, he can still display some mating-related behaviour and forget that he has been neutered! 😂 However, he is definitely neutered, and proof can be provided. Why are we looking for a new home? This is not a decision we have taken lightly. We have had him for over a year and a half, and he means a great deal to us. We would never consider rehoming him unless we genuinely believed it could offer him a better quality of life. We also care for older cats and several rescue cats. Unfortunately, he constantly wants to play with them, and although he only wants to have fun, our older and less playful cats aren’t always particularly impressed! We feel he deserves a home where his energy, personality and need for companionship can be fully appreciated. Being a young, active cat, we also believe he will adapt more easily to a new environment than an older cat might. We want him to have a home where he isn’t simply another cat in the household, but where someone genuinely enjoys spending time with him, playing with him and giving him the attention he deserves. 🏡 What we are looking for: * An experienced or knowledgeable owner, ideally familiar with Bengals. * A loving home that understands the breed’s energy and needs. * Plenty of daily interaction, play and enrichment. * Ideally, another young and playful feline companion. * A strictly indoor-only home, preferably with access to a secure catio. * Someone committed to providing good-quality food and ongoing veterinary care. If you feel you could offer him the right home and would like to arrange a meeting, please get in touch. We are more than happy to answer any questions, explain his background in more detail and arrange for you to come and meet him. Please tell us a little about the home you could offer him and any other pets you have. He has come a long way, and we are incredibly proud of the cat he has become. All we want now is to find him the wonderful forever home he truly deserves. ❤️
