Signs that tell if a cat likes you: -it purrs when it’s near you -it rubs up against you -it shows it’s belly to you -it blinks slowly -it follows you Leo showed a lot of the signs throughout the video ^^
A tip with the waterless shampoo! DO NOT directly spray it onto your cat! Cats are afraid of the noise and will be shook by water blasting at them lol (I learned this the hard way). Spray it into a brush and then comb through their fur with that! xoxo
SarahK23 quickly realized this 🙈 I’ve sprayed it onto a towel and just rubbed him with it and he tries to play with the towel but it’s kind of working 😂
Why would you wash your cat at all? I see it so often on American UA-cam channels, that they wash their cats. Is this a thing? The only time when it's ok to wash a cat is when he is outside and got himself dirty. Cats clean themselves A LOT. Why wash them?
Lots of enrichment toys too. They are super active and intelligent, can become destructive if not properly entertained. And this is one breed that LOVES outdoor socialization. Mine made friends with every dog on the street, lol. Her besties are an English sheepdog and a chocolate lab.
I've had my cat for 14 years and I have to say that you are definitely doing the "transition thing" right. He should be able to to get to know the place and the best way to do that is to let him explore the house. He seems very comfortable with you from what I could tell from the video. congrats on being a new parent! one more thing-- I recommend you get a cat scratching post so that he doesn't go for your furniture
I have two male cats and I bought them several scratching posts over the years - they ignored all of them and kept scratching on the couch. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ thanks for nothing, buddies!
@@xxgachacookie1067 you should probably buy some toys for your cat to play with and hunt until they tire out. They will then have less energy to go after you and will also stop associating you as a toy or prey. hope this helps :)
Oooo a bengal!! I have one!! Just a tip, don't give up on his hyper-activeness during his kitten days. Gotta play with him a hell lot. Either that or get him another friend maybe. Edit: Oh yeah and don't wash him regularly, maybe once every 4-5 months
@@Hey_im_Viv That's what I thought. I have a cat and he's perfectly clean without bathing. I can understand washing some fufu long haired cat but Bengals are pretty capable.
Although 2 times a year is a safe maximum amount, but I wouldn't reccomend it. Cats, especially Bengals, are quite capable of cleaning themselves and you certainly should do it just because a certain period of time pasted. Unless they fell in mud something else which has led to a strong smell or an overwhelming amount of dirt the cat is not capable or cleaning, I would not reccomend bathing them. To be fair, washing a cat 2 times a year will not have any negative implications. If you do it too often, they lose essential oils (also it may be tramatic if they're not used to it). I would still attempt to get Leo used to water whilst he's young, just in case. That doesn't neccessarily mean bathing though, perhaps just seeing if he likes going for a swim. These things need to be done whilst the cat is young, so try if you feel like it.
Not all cats are the same. My cat loves playing hide and seek and tag with me and I use my instincts to see what she wants. Playing with hands is okay unless you hate getting scratched. It doesn't hurt for me and I like the mark because it reminds me that I played with her and we had a great time but yea toys are more fun but I use hands sometimes to get her attention. It really depends on what mood your cat is in
Only ever hold my cats against their will when it’s necessary, eg to get them in the carrier for a vet visit, or when my dad has the drain cover open the other day and she wanted to go in and investigate!
Brittany Renee I’m a life-long cat owner too. When at the vet I always hold my cat against their will. Also when they’re being groomed. While I’ve had some that weren’t into play but preferred to lounge, I’ve had some that played like they were dogs...chasing...hands...the works. Don’t give stupid advice.
Just a little disclaimer💕 Bengals can be a little more feisty. *some, not all* But they usually mellow down as they grow up. Leo seems to be an absolute delight though😭💕
Agreed. In fact, they are often abandoned because people aren't aware of this and buy them for asthetic purposes. Bengals typically need regular walks or exercise, otherwise they exert their energy by terrorising their owner. Also, just curious, are you planning on letting him out without supervision or keeping him as an inside cat )there's no problem with either)?
And, hold him all the time as a kitten and touch his toes and paws a lot or you will never get to hold him as an adult or trim his claws. I have had cats or kittens my whole life. Everyone who says "they don't like to be held" is right but he can learn to be well behaved while being held and carried if you handle him a lot as a kitten. Its not going to hurt him to be held. If you don't do it now, you will never be able to. Its not like your are gonna throw him in a purse and carry him around all day. He will still be free to run around and play most of the time.

You have to if its bengal. Bengal is known as hyperactive cat. There's one day when Im not lock my Bengal and let him played around and he run away. It's a relief when I found my Bengal at my neighbor's house.
I agree if anyone adopts a pet they should let their pet explore their new home and make them feel welcome. Not get locked up :(. I believe its nice to let your pets know its environment.
Koua Vang it’s actually been proven to make them explore small portions because there’s already territories and they need to slowly get accustomed watch expert opinions on it. She’s actually doing exactly what she’s supposed to be doing
Anime Girl most cats u should bc u don’t want them to stress, you want them to get used to scents of the people and house, letting him wander around will make him stress
I have a charcoal bengal cat and a brown one two and I can tell you,its totally normal for him to be running around your house and wanting to play a lot.This is not that fluffy kitty that does nothing all day.They are wild haha.Mines are almost always sicking for attention,but I kinda love that.Also the best thing ever is their fur that not only looks so unique and majestic,but its also easy to take care of.Best wishes to you and your new baby boy!
This transitioning thing seemed very weird, i‘ve had cats almost all my life and we never did that. You only do that when you have another pet where you then let them „switch“ rooms so that they can smell each other. So yea that was kinda unnecessary
ANGELINA VISIONS she’s not stupid wtf? It’s her first time having a pet and she listened to the person she brought the cat off... how is that a stupid thing to do? She was being extra careful it’s not like it harmed the cat. Rude much?
it's unnecessary with adult cats but it being a kitten actually is considered better for the kitten so they can acclimate... any good cat breeder would tell you that
Loveeeeee! Soooo cute! Our prophet Muhammad (PBUH) always talked of cats and had one. Just beautiful. And did I mention you looked SO BEAUTIFUL in this video! Love your makeup!
Prophet Muhammad's fondness for cats is conveyed in his hadith: "Affection for cats is part of faith" (Maqasid al-Hasanah, al-Sakhawi). So, loving a cat is a sign that someone is a believer. When Prophet Muhammad came across a black-and-white Abyssinian cat breastfeeding her kitten during the Uhud campaign, he changed the course of his soldiers. On his way back he adopted this cat and gave her the name "Muezza." One day, he slightly tipped his cup so that a cat passing by could drink some water. The Prophet Muhammad always loved cats. His favorite feline of all was Muezza. Prophet Muhammad was so attached to him, he'd let the cat sit on his lap while he gave his sermons. He'd even drink water that Muezza had previously been lapping up. There are several well-known tales about Muezza. One says that the cat of Abu Huraira radiallahu anhu saved Prophet Muhammad from the deadly bite of a venomous snake. It is even said among the people that Prophet Muhammad stroked the back of a cat for strangling a snake that was about to harm someone and that is why cats land on four feet and not on their backs. Another relates a time when Muezza was asleep on Prophet Muhammad's robe when the call to prayers sounded. Although most people would have simply shooed away the cat, Prophet Muhammad instead cut off the sleeve of his robe so Muezza could rest in peace. A companion of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam was given the name Abu Hurairah, which means "father of cats." Abu Hurairah radiallahu anhu was given this name because wherever he went, he always had a cat with him. His original name is Abd al Rahman given by Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Abu Huraira went to Makkah with Tufayl to meet the noble Prophet. The blessed Prophet asked him, “What’s your name?” “Abd al-Shams, servant of the sun” replied Abu Huraira. “Instead, let your name be Abd- al-Rahman, servant of the Merciful,” said the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam). If anyone thinks what I wrote is wrong, please say. Hope this helps, salaam.
OH MY GAWD! I have literally been wanting this exact type of cat for EVER! White bengal kitten with blue eyes, literally my DREAM! And I’m only 15 haha
I have a blue eyed snow Bengal named Leo too.. he now 5yrs. He's was the perfect kitten. He still is so friendly n fun to have around. You'll soon realize Bengals are the best cats they're your buddy for life
The transition technique is more to reduce the stress from a new environment, but if they want out to play that’s a great sign that they’re feeling comfortable enough to explore. I’d only do it if the kitten seemed overwhelmed
I'm so happy to let him out.. It broke my heart that he cried in that little room. He such a beautiful cat. I wish I could hold him. Please post him more, thx
I also have a recommendation for treats! Since my cat also follows a raw diet, trust me they do not like conventional treats. They just like meat lol. I've tried those same blue buffalo treats and he doesn't like them either. Try pure bites freeze dried chicken, churu cat treats (tuna flavor, chicken, scallop, etc.), and the tuna fillets from churu. Also for the raw food some specialty pet shops sell the chicken gizzards, meat, bone, etc. already ground and mixed for them. I don't know where you live, but I'm in LA and there are a lot of them here.
Annisa rm Actually, it’s not just about wet vs dry, because I tried giving my cat canned food multiple times (because the breeder said it was okay to give a bit as a snack when he was a growing kitten). He did not like canned food. I don’t think he sees it as food haha. My dog sometimes eats a cooked meal (just plain meat), and my cat will sniff it but not even eat it. He only likes his raw food, freeze dried chicken breast, those churu cat treat tubes and fish fillets. Very picky haha.
If the cat is comfortable out of the room, he's ready to be out of the room. Also cats are naturally potty trained so as long as he has access to his litter box he should be good. Some cats freak out when they are moved and need to be allowed to adjust to one room at a time. My cats were scared of big spaces and kept to themsleves in one room first, then we'd open the door and coax them out and let them run back in. I think Leo is ready to be free in the house. Remember that if he can't get to his litter box, a natural place to go next will be dirty/soiled clothing so be careful with your hampers. You may also want to use a spray scratch repellant for your fabric and/or leather furniture and get a few scratch posts. If he has claws, he will scratch stuff up but if he has something he likes more, he'll scratch that.
Lovely cat. I had a snow Bengal, but they're happier if you have two cats. Be ready - they can problem solve, like how to open your doors etc!! And they never shut up! Great company and great fun. Give then plenty of live, fuss and attention and play with them every day - good way to keep a Bengal happy !! God bless
I can't remember if you got him a scratcher during the video but I strongly recommend it. It stops the cat from scratching furniture and also if you're doing the transition you must spend time with him. The point of the transition is not to teach them to respect you but to get them used to the house. BTW nearly 1 year!! This is advice for anyone buying/adopting a cat
also lavender oil keeps them calm ! I would put lavender on and then pet my cat or just put it directly on her when she wld act crazy around the house.
I didn't know bengals were hypoallergenic! If you ever look into getting a second cat, you should look into a Siberian Forest cat. They are also hypoallergenic too and absolutely beautiful. I have one and he's the best purchase I've ever made. You can also get a Siberian with lynx point markings. So it'll look like your Bengal but fluffy haha. Also, my Siberian cat follows a raw diet too. I love cats, they're the best! Your cat is absolutely so cute.
He's beautiful!! I absolutely adore cats and I can't wait until I finally get my own place so I can get a kitty. My parents aren't too fond of pets so I can't get one while I'm still living with them but hopefully in a few years.
omg yes our cats are crazy for them! We get a different kind each time, right now we have the “hair ball control” ones and we’ve also had the teeth cleaning ones 🔥
Bengals are NOTORIOUS for being crazy little buggers that love to run and jump. 10/10 recommend Cat Tree King cat trees!!!! They are pricey but AMAZING (and way more stylish). Also, I would say add another little box - a cat should have at least 2. Don’t worry about locking him in his room, I have 4 cats and I’ve never done any sort of transitioning. Cats won’t “respect you more”, I promise. Just love him and give him space when he wants it. Also.... bengals SCREECH - just like he did in the video. Enjoy it for the next 15 years of your life haha.
Bengal Cats are anti-allergic! That's why my neighbors got 2 Bengal kittens, although theyr are highly allergic to cats. They don't have ANY prolems. Just thus breed is bloody expensive.... and you should always have 2!
I once had a bengal cat. His name was top. He had stomach problem and eventually passed away. A very good reminder Leena if the cat showed any symptoms that she is sick, they are already that deep into a problem. Because cat fake themselves and will not show any kind of sickness signs. I learned it the hard way. Btw i am glad you have a her as a part of your family. Love you leena.
Bengals are full of energy..he needs space and lots of play and exercise. They definitely are fine left in the whole house, it's as long as they don't go out the house for two weeks. Cats don't learn like dogs about respect 🤣 cats are cats. They run the house. Ha! Beautiful animals they are. Yes Bengals are vocal and very high energy You might have to neuter him when he grows, he might spray in the house. Loved this video x
Omg Leena ! Ur cat is soo cute . Literally can't express it in words😍 it really reminded me of my cats who have been missing since quite a few days now😥 Guys pls pray that they come back home soon.. I miss them so much
Aweeee my husband and I just got a kitty too we are so in love !!! Honestly best most humble distraction Till allah blesses us with a baby INshAllah Mabrook habbibty. 🐾♥️
اللهم بارك so cute! I know you said about being allergic to cats but I would really suggest adopting pets in the future inshaAllah! There are so many in need of a good home. Bless you
Bengals are high maintenance. But any cat is smart. As long as they know where the litter box is, they will be good for the most part. Also, if you aren't intending on breeding him, at about a year old, you'll want to get him to the vet to get him fixed. Not a bad thing, you just don't want him spraying your furniture when he's in heat. (It's a territory thing) For discipline, a bottle filled with water works great for most cats, a long with the word no. When they do an undesired behavior, such as jumping up on counters, scratching furniture, etc. Spraying them with a little bit of water is usually the best deterrent and saying no reinforces it. Also get a cat tree or small scratching post. That will also limit him scratching the furniture, and will also prevent you from having to trim his claws. Scratching something course keeps their claws from getting too long. You can also train cats to walk on a leash, and that harness is a good one. Just make sure to double up on your patience. I find cats more stubborn than dogs when training to walk on a leash, but it can be done.
@@Huesbydani Yeah, there are cats that like water. We had a long haired one that learned to turn the bath room sink on just enough to drip so she could get a drink. Sometimes she would sit under it in the summer to try and cool off. She knew the difference between cold water and hot water. When cats like water, sometimes you'll have to resort to other options like click training, but that's rare, thankfully.
Cats scratch furniture or other items because that’s their natural instinct. So let them have a chance to use their claws to scratch things. To prevent them scratching your furniture, purchase a few cat towers and scratchers for him to scratch on. It’s probably a good idea to put the cat towers next to the furnitures you don’t want them to scratch on since the cat will go onto the cat tower rather than the furniture. It’s even better if it’s a tall cat tower.
Omg I’m allergic to cats too, I thought I would only be able to get the wrinkly cats, lol 😂 what other kinds of cats are suitable for those that are allergic to cat hair? And also, how expensive is expensive? Looking forward to learning more about how you take care of it and all. I kind of wanted a cat, pre-baby as well, but never could because of being allergic
s21972012145525 the only other one I know of is called a Russian blue cat which are also beautiful! And girl it was really expensive for a cat 🙈 like as much as a designer bag hahaha but of course so much better and more worth it 😻
s21972012145525 Damn. Comparable to which brand lol? Are we talking about Chanel jumbo type pricing lol? 😂 Maybe a baby is easier, lol. 😂 also, is it true no cat is truly hypoallergenic? Instead, they are just less likely to irritate allergy sufferers as much? Let us know how your husband’s allergies change with Leo around please! 🙏
s21972012145525 “wrinkle cat” you mean sphynx cats? They aren’t hypoallergenic. They will actually trigger your allergy more than normal cats depending on if your allergic to fur or the cats oils
A little tip Put flea drops on him every two weeks And don't let him go out too much because they will get addicted to staying outside and they won't want to stay inside
Cats mostly prefer water and food seperated, just like big cats in nature. I use a water fountain. Because of the running water, animals are triggered to drink more. You’ll notice in the litter box, their pee is getting a lot bigger. It’s also running through a filter, which keeps it fresh and clean. A bowl of water needs to be washed out and refreshed everyday 🐱
you should definitely invest in a tree house for him! the reason why he’s scratching the couch is because their claws need to be filed on a surface & tree houses typically have scratching poles. he’s so cute
Signs that tell if a cat likes you:
-it purrs when it’s near you
-it rubs up against you
-it shows it’s belly to you
-it blinks slowly
-it follows you
Leo showed a lot of the signs throughout the video ^^
kat yay!!!

On his way back he adopted this cat and gave her the name "Muezza." One day, he slightly tipped his cup so that a cat passing by could drink some water.
The Prophet Muhammad always loved cats. His favorite feline of all was Muezza. Prophet Muhammad was so attached to him, he'd let the cat sit on his lap while he gave his sermons. He'd even drink water that Muezza had previously been lapping up.
There are several well-known tales about Muezza. One says that the cat of Abu Huraira radiallahu anhu saved Prophet Muhammad from the deadly bite of a venomous snake.
It is even said among the people that Prophet Muhammad stroked the back of a cat for strangling a snake that was about to harm someone and that is why cats land on four feet and not on their backs.
Another relates a time when Muezza was asleep on Prophet Muhammad's robe when the call to prayers sounded. Although most people would have simply shooed away the cat, Prophet Muhammad instead cut off the sleeve of his robe so Muezza could rest in peace.
A companion of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam was given the name Abu Hurairah, which means "father of cats." Abu Hurairah radiallahu anhu was given this name because wherever he went, he always had a cat with him. His original name is Abd al Rahman given by Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
Abu Huraira went to Makkah with Tufayl to meet the noble Prophet. The blessed Prophet asked him, “What’s your name?”
“Abd al-Shams, servant of the sun” replied Abu Huraira.
“Instead, let your name be Abd- al-Rahman, servant of the Merciful,” said the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam). If anyone thinks what I wrote is wrong, please say. Hope this helps, salaam.
OH MY GAWD! I have literally been wanting this exact type of cat for EVER! White bengal kitten with blue eyes, literally my DREAM! And I’m only 15 haha
„You made me waste all of my money“ I laughed about this more than I should 😂 and the Sounds he made in the background were hilarious 😅
I have a blue eyed snow Bengal named Leo too.. he now 5yrs. He's was the perfect kitten. He still is so friendly n fun to have around. You'll soon realize Bengals are the best cats they're your buddy for life
Congratulations for being a kitty mommy!
oh my gosh Im a massive cat lady and when I saw Leo, my heart just OOF
The bed is reallyyyy cute, Girl you should keep it your kitty will love it!😀😀
The transition technique is more to reduce the stress from a new environment, but if they want out to play that’s a great sign that they’re feeling comfortable enough to explore. I’d only do it if the kitten seemed overwhelmed
I'm so happy to let him out.. It broke my heart that he cried in that little room. He such a beautiful cat. I wish I could hold him. Please post him more, thx
“You made me waste all my money” 😂
He’s such a cutie, Subhanallah mashaAllah
The cat matches your house color scheme. So cute!
I also have a recommendation for treats! Since my cat also follows a raw diet, trust me they do not like conventional treats. They just like meat lol. I've tried those same blue buffalo treats and he doesn't like them either. Try pure bites freeze dried chicken, churu cat treats (tuna flavor, chicken, scallop, etc.), and the tuna fillets from churu. Also for the raw food some specialty pet shops sell the chicken gizzards, meat, bone, etc. already ground and mixed for them. I don't know where you live, but I'm in LA and there are a lot of them here.
Emily G. Thank you!!!
Yess basically cats are more liking wet food than dry ...
Withlove, Leena You’re welcome! :)
Annisa rm Actually, it’s not just about wet vs dry, because I tried giving my cat canned food multiple times (because the breeder said it was okay to give a bit as a snack when he was a growing kitten). He did not like canned food. I don’t think he sees it as food haha. My dog sometimes eats a cooked meal (just plain meat), and my cat will sniff it but not even eat it. He only likes his raw food, freeze dried chicken breast, those churu cat treat tubes and fish fillets. Very picky haha.
cats really adapt quickly to new environments. the way he is behaving towards you shows that he is adapted or adapting very well
He has the prettiest big blue eyes ever..i’m obsessed!
His eyes 😩 and his fading spots ugh my heart lil bby boy. Also like ofc you’d end up with such an aesthetically pleasing cat
If the cat is comfortable out of the room, he's ready to be out of the room. Also cats are naturally potty trained so as long as he has access to his litter box he should be good. Some cats freak out when they are moved and need to be allowed to adjust to one room at a time. My cats were scared of big spaces and kept to themsleves in one room first, then we'd open the door and coax them out and let them run back in. I think Leo is ready to be free in the house. Remember that if he can't get to his litter box, a natural place to go next will be dirty/soiled clothing so be careful with your hampers. You may also want to use a spray scratch repellant for your fabric and/or leather furniture and get a few scratch posts. If he has claws, he will scratch stuff up but if he has something he likes more, he'll scratch that.
I've always wanted a bengal 👏
lmao i saw ur comment somewhere earlier 😂
Adnan A
I’m from bengal lol
Bengal is a state or a place lol
bts comeback on april 12 spread the news please
I think they meant a bengal cat
Me too
Lovely cat. I had a snow Bengal, but they're happier if you have two cats. Be ready - they can problem solve, like how to open your doors etc!! And they never shut up! Great company and great fun. Give then plenty of live, fuss and attention and play with them every day - good way to keep a Bengal happy !! God bless
I can't remember if you got him a scratcher during the video but I strongly recommend it. It stops the cat from scratching furniture and also if you're doing the transition you must spend time with him. The point of the transition is not to teach them to respect you but to get them used to the house. BTW nearly 1 year!! This is advice for anyone buying/adopting a cat
Such a cutie cat I never saw a cat like Leo he's beautiful MashaAllah! Your skin is glowing Leena MashaAllah 😊
I couldnt stop looking at your Face..Your BEAUTIFUL...i REALLY love your headscarf♡
It’s a hijab....

I love kids, but this cat is cuter than any baby I have ever seen.

I didn't know bengals were hypoallergenic! If you ever look into getting a second cat, you should look into a Siberian Forest cat. They are also hypoallergenic too and absolutely beautiful. I have one and he's the best purchase I've ever made. You can also get a Siberian with lynx point markings. So it'll look like your Bengal but fluffy haha. Also, my Siberian cat follows a raw diet too. I love cats, they're the best! Your cat is absolutely so cute.
He's beautiful!! I absolutely adore cats and I can't wait until I finally get my own place so I can get a kitty. My parents aren't too fond of pets so I can't get one while I'm still living with them but hopefully in a few years.
“Temptations” are the treat that every cat loves.
omg yes our cats are crazy for them! We get a different kind each time, right now we have the “hair ball control” ones and we’ve also had the teeth cleaning ones 🔥
Bengals are NOTORIOUS for being crazy little buggers that love to run and jump. 10/10 recommend Cat Tree King cat trees!!!! They are pricey but AMAZING (and way more stylish). Also, I would say add another little box - a cat should have at least 2. Don’t worry about locking him in his room, I have 4 cats and I’ve never done any sort of transitioning. Cats won’t “respect you more”, I promise. Just love him and give him space when he wants it. Also.... bengals SCREECH - just like he did in the video. Enjoy it for the next 15 years of your life haha.
So cute! I pray my future husband isn’t allergic to cats!!! 🥺🙏🏼
Your very funny well I agree with you I have been begging my parents for a cat for years and
Omg my dad is allergic...it sucks
Bengal Cats are anti-allergic! That's why my neighbors got 2 Bengal kittens, although theyr are highly allergic to cats. They don't have ANY prolems. Just thus breed is bloody expensive.... and you should always have 2!
@@ninazeleznik009 my dad is too
I just keep my kitties away from him
Cats love to explore! They usually get stressed or anxious in closed rooms.
CAN WE GET A HOUSE TOUR IT LOOKS SO PRETTY!!!
I once had a bengal cat. His name was top. He had stomach problem and eventually passed away. A very good reminder Leena if the cat showed any symptoms that she is sick, they are already that deep into a problem. Because cat fake themselves and will not show any kind of sickness signs. I learned it the hard way. Btw i am glad you have a her as a part of your family. Love you leena.
Bengals are full of energy..he needs space and lots of play and exercise. They definitely are fine left in the whole house, it's as long as they don't go out the house for two weeks. Cats don't learn like dogs about respect 🤣 cats are cats. They run the house. Ha! Beautiful animals they are.
Yes Bengals are vocal and very high energy
You might have to neuter him when he grows, he might spray in the house.
Loved this video x
OMG,...he is such a cute cat 😭❤️...TBH I never seen a cat like this in my life 😍 he is so pretty, May Allah bless him 🌹
Omg Leena ! Ur cat is soo cute . Literally can't express it in words😍 it really reminded me of my cats who have been missing since quite a few days now😥 Guys pls pray that they come back home soon.. I miss them so much
Aweeee my husband and I just got a kitty too we are so in love !!! Honestly best most humble distraction Till allah blesses us with a baby INshAllah Mabrook habbibty. 🐾♥️
This came up in my timeline! You are pretty, and your cat is pretty! I’m happy youtube suggesting this vid💕
The bed is ADORABLE, when you first showed it I was like please get ittttttt
اللهم بارك so cute! I know you said about being allergic to cats but I would really suggest adopting pets in the future inshaAllah! There are so many in need of a good home. Bless you
Bengal cats are known to be cheeky so be careful with that cutie!! X
Yeah I hope she did her research.
What do you mean?
hej svejs they’re not the usual house cats, there more active so constantly love to play. These type of cats need a lil bit more attention
okay I understand now, Thank you!
Bengals are high maintenance. But any cat is smart. As long as they know where the litter box is, they will be good for the most part. Also, if you aren't intending on breeding him, at about a year old, you'll want to get him to the vet to get him fixed. Not a bad thing, you just don't want him spraying your furniture when he's in heat. (It's a territory thing)
For discipline, a bottle filled with water works great for most cats, a long with the word no. When they do an undesired behavior, such as jumping up on counters, scratching furniture, etc. Spraying them with a little bit of water is usually the best deterrent and saying no reinforces it. Also get a cat tree or small scratching post. That will also limit him scratching the furniture, and will also prevent you from having to trim his claws. Scratching something course keeps their claws from getting too long.
You can also train cats to walk on a leash, and that harness is a good one. Just make sure to double up on your patience. I find cats more stubborn than dogs when training to walk on a leash, but it can be done.
Spray bottle with water does not work what so ever on my bengal. She couldn't care less. Actually she seems to enjoy it...:/
@@Huesbydani Yeah, there are cats that like water. We had a long haired one that learned to turn the bath room sink on just enough to drip so she could get a drink. Sometimes she would sit under it in the summer to try and cool off. She knew the difference between cold water and hot water. When cats like water, sometimes you'll have to resort to other options like click training, but that's rare, thankfully.
Cats scratch furniture or other items because that’s their natural instinct. So let them have a chance to use their claws to scratch things. To prevent them scratching your furniture, purchase a few cat towers and scratchers for him to scratch on. It’s probably a good idea to put the cat towers next to the furnitures you don’t want them to scratch on since the cat will go onto the cat tower rather than the furniture. It’s even better if it’s a tall cat tower.
He is soooooooo adorable.....very high energy and playful!
*videos starts*
me: OOOF your eyelashes
I'm in love with Leo!!! He is so, so, so adorable ma'sha'Allah !!!
Sundus H mashallah
Even your cat matches your apartment. I’m dying.
Lol
You and your cat are a beautiful pair. Bless you young lady for taking care of this cute cats.
Yeah, bengals really like meowing like crazy ALL THE TIME. Our boy does it all the time.
Omg I’m allergic to cats too, I thought I would only be able to get the wrinkly cats, lol 😂 what other kinds of cats are suitable for those that are allergic to cat hair? And also, how expensive is expensive? Looking forward to learning more about how you take care of it and all. I kind of wanted a cat, pre-baby as well, but never could because of being allergic
s21972012145525 the only other one I know of is called a Russian blue cat which are also beautiful! And girl it was really expensive for a cat 🙈 like as much as a designer bag hahaha but of course so much better and more worth it 😻
s21972012145525
Damn. Comparable to which brand lol? Are we talking about Chanel jumbo type pricing lol? 😂
Maybe a baby is easier, lol. 😂 also, is it true no cat is truly hypoallergenic? Instead, they are just less likely to irritate allergy sufferers as much? Let us know how your husband’s allergies change with Leo around please! 🙏
s21972012145525 you could take a look here www.catbreedslist.com/hypoallergenic-cat-breeds/#.XHzAtbLnvmr
s21972012145525 “wrinkle cat” you mean sphynx cats? They aren’t hypoallergenic. They will actually trigger your allergy more than normal cats depending on if your allergic to fur or the cats oils
sorry but this list is incorrect, unfortunately, most of those breeds are not hypoallergenic
He is sooo cute and pretty! 😍😍😍
I would adopt from the shelter tho, but yeah that's me 😉
God bless you and your cat
You were in my suggestions and gosh you're so pretty and so is your kitty. I immediately subscribed after watching this video!
Congratulations! You are now owned by the most intelligent, affectionate, and funny cats in the world, I will be getting a Bengal myself soon
I was literally just talking to my husband about how you got this cat and you just uploaded this video! ♥️
khadoozzeeyy heheee 🤗
You should let him explore everything
A little tip
Put flea drops on him every two weeks
And don't let him go out too much because they will get addicted to staying outside and they won't want to stay inside
Bengals are so entertaining. Wish you all the best
Cats mostly prefer water and food seperated, just like big cats in nature. I use a water fountain. Because of the running water, animals are triggered to drink more. You’ll notice in the litter box, their pee is getting a lot bigger. It’s also running through a filter, which keeps it fresh and clean. A bowl of water needs to be washed out and refreshed everyday 🐱
Congratulations on your cat He is very beautiful God bless you and your sweet cat❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aww he's so cute❤
who is here after finding out someone stole Leo?
what?
what?
@@palestinian.soldier8388 Yes, check out one of her latest vlogs, she talks about it.
Yes, in one of her more recent videos she says someone stole Leo, while he was out
omg nooo what is the title of that video???
you should definitely invest in a tree house for him! the reason why he’s scratching the couch is because their claws need to be filed on a surface & tree houses typically have scratching poles. he’s so cute
You are sooo beautiful. Pale pink really compliments your skin tone but honestly I can see you looking good in any colour 😭
He’s literally the cutest kitten I have ever seen mashallah 💕
omg so cute! I'm really excited bc I might be getting one!!!😆😆😆this video made me want one even moreeeeeeeeeee
Do your research properly, and don't get a purebred.
Alsalamu Alakuim Allah bless and protect you Ameen sister. Love you and your cat is so cute and aww 😍😍😍😍😍😘😘.
Your cat is cute I hope Allah will keep your login safe
I meant kitten safe
Leena : *picks up leo*

I have a marble coated bengal (my first cat) that I got when she was 5 months old. She turns 6 this August. They are such affectionate wonderful cats.
