Reply #9: Yep, a friend had one

managed it for about a month then had to take it back to the breeder. Bengals are hybrids; domestic cats crossed with Asian leopard cats. I also know some people that have about every type of wild cat-from sand cats to Siberian tigers-who say that the ONLY wild cats they can trust with visitors are some of their lynxs, bobcats, servals and caracals. Asian leopard cats are strictly off limits. They even have a Bengal that's caged and inaccesible to visitors, because it's far more dangeous than the lynx, etc!
