My husband bought a Bengal cat (it is indeed a Bengal) and I now have the papers enroute. The breeder represented this cat as a six month old. According to the papers, he is going to be 2 years old in March of 07. He is presently quite shy and quite skittish. She kept telling us when we picked him up that he needed work and she was trying to work with him on socializing. Now I wonder, if it is possible that she did him a major disservice. She told us he could get up to 20 pounds. I know nothing about Bengal cats except what I have read on this site. Is it possible that he will get up to 20 pounds if he is still within 2 years of age? I know I have to earn his trust, etc, and I know I can bring him around as far as letting him know he is in a safe environment. She did not neuter him which is puzzling. He is not spraying, and he has barely eaten. She did give him shots the day I got him (I think). Any advice is appreciated. [/list]
