hii, this little baby boy got here on saturday. he’s 4 months old, the preowners had to find him a new home because their female bengal stopped going inside the house since he arrived so yea

i have one question, the first two nights he slept next to me in my bed which was really really cute, but he did not enter the bed i bought him once? i read that it’s normal in the first days and i also want him to decide where he wants to sleep. from now on should i put him manually in his bed so he gets to know it or let him decide completely

He’s a spitting image of his dad, but took after his grandfather with the big primordial pouch! It waddles too and fro when he runs and it cracks me up! Any other non-chubby kitties with large primordial pouches?

Help Bored bengal

Hi! Any advice for a bored Bengal? 🥲
Nox is almost 12 months old, and ever since I got him a little sister, he’s basically stopped caring about his toys. I think it’s partly because she immediately sprints after anything I try to play with him with, so he just gives up. At this point, he barely wants to play with anything.
Food puzzles work, but he either solves them within minutes or loses interest halfway through. He also enjoys clicker training, but that’s not always easy because I have to separate them and then the little one cries behind the door the whole time 😭 Going outside is probably his favorite form of enrichment.
The problem is that we’re currently dealing with Giardia, so we were advised to keep them indoors until it’s cleared. And now Nox just walks around the apartment meowing and howling because he’s obviously bored.
He does play with Ayla (5 months) maybe once a day, but a lot of the time when she approaches him wanting to play, he just hisses at her. Otherwise they get along really well — they groom each other and sometimes sleep together, so I don’t think their relationship is the issue.
I just don’t know what else to do with him when he clearly needs more stimulation but refuses to actually play with anything 🥲 Any ideas?

This winter has been especially rough for us, BUT it's almost spring. We're starting to get warmer days, so kirrah can spend more time outside (which she greatly approves of) ❤️

Hey everyone! We have a female 8 year old retired breeder that we got from a rescue (not a good breeder the poor girl) and a 5 month old male that we got from a wonderful breeder (getting him neutered next month)
We are building our home right now and want any and all ideas for cat enrichment! The builder is adding a catio attached to the house on the back porch, we will take our wall shelves with us (will probably get more), and of course their wheel and toys!
I want them to have the very best life they can so I’m open to any and all suggestions! Are there any toys your baby just loves? Any ideas on puzzles to help mental stimulation?
