Girls and boys Bengal cat kittens are chosen by famous millionaires and generally wealthy people. The fact is that such pets cost a lot, and everyone has a desire to pet a domestic cat, which in appearance resembles a real leopard. The name for a Bengal cat is chosen with special care. It is important that it matches the theme and sonority of a noble and elite animal.
Features of choosing a name
Bengal cats appeared relatively recently. Breeders bred them only in the sixties of the last century. But instantly these beautiful animals gained a large army of fans. Therefore, the names for Bengal cats are completely different.
Cats of this breed resemble a graceful predator in appearance. But, of course, they are smaller in size. Bengal cats have a domestic character, so it is quite possible to keep them in a small apartment. The breed is exotic and rare, which is why the names for Bengal cats are sonorous, extraordinary and beautiful.
The main feature of a name for a cat of an exotic breed is that it must correspond to the high status of the pet. This is a real domestic predator, so it would be wrong to give it the name Murka or Ryzhik.
Before choosing nicknames for Bengal cats, you need to understand whether the pet will perform at exhibitions. If this is the case, then you need to choose a beautiful and sonorous name that the animal will easily remember. It is also necessary to take into account that the cat’s name should also reflect its pedigree.
However, you should not choose a very complex name. It is not so easy to accustom a Bengal cat to a nickname - “predatory” genes play a role here. It is better to opt for names that are not difficult to pronounce and big. But even if it is long, it can be shortened for use at home. It will be easier for a cat to learn to respond to a nickname that consists of several syllables, with the obligatory hissing sound.
Pedigree cats are often called already in the cattery. Therefore, the name will be written in the documents. However, owners sometimes do not like such names. In any case, this official nickname will remain only in documents that need to be shown at exhibitions. At home, you can call a kitten completely differently. But it is worth remembering that it is necessary to accustom a Bengal cat kitten as early as possible.
Bengals display an excellent level of intelligence. They learn tricks, which makes their owners very happy. At the same time, you should accustom a cat to a nickname very early. Breeders do not recommend changing the name or calling the cat simply “cat” or “cat”. In this case, the pet's character may change. You should also not constantly call a cat by its name in a diminutive form, because this way the animal simply will not respond to its official name.
How to accustom a kitten to its name
When choosing a name for a boy or girl cat, you need to pay attention to the unique character of the pet. The nickname for an animal of the Bengal breed must correspond to its unusual character. It is worth noting such behavioral features that do not always fit the character of ordinary cats:
- Bengals are loyal to water. They can run around, some even like to swim in ponds or take a bath with their owners.
- The animal's fur is spotted, marbled, and resembles the fur of a leopard. At the same time, this color has an unusual glow.
- It is simply impossible to train Bengal boys and girls not to climb heights. They love to watch their owners from above, climbing onto the highest furniture. To prevent the cat from damaging its body, you need to organize a comfortable ascent and descent.
- Bengals are well trained. They can be taught to fetch things and even house slippers, just like dogs.
- Animals love to play and hide things. Their weakness is sparkling objects.
Knowing these behavioral features, you can quickly accustom the kitten to its name. You should choose the most catchy nickname, consisting of several syllables. The presence of a hissing or whistling letter in the name is required.
In order for a cat to respond faster, it is recommended to say the name when feeding the animal. It will also be useful to name during active games.
Names for Bengal cats
Choosing a name for a Bengal cat is not as easy as it seems at first glance. Beautiful names for kittens are presented in the list in alphabetical order. When choosing, you should take into account not only what gender the kitten is going to be named, but also the characteristics of its character. There are nicknames for cats depending on their behavior. For example, for some Bengalis the names of composers will be suitable if they like to have a voice. Others are crazy about water - themes related to the sea and river will suit them. Others can show tremendous physical endurance, rushing around the apartment, literally knocking down everything in their path. Such a cat can be given a name related to speed.

A little about the breed
As mentioned earlier, the cost of animals depends on what characteristics the pet has. In general, the pricing policy varies from 20 to 70 thousand rubles. So, if you buy a pet for exhibitions, on average, be prepared to pay 70 thousand rubles for it. If you want to start breeding this breed, but do not plan to participate in exhibitions, the cost of the baby will be about 50 thousand rubles. And if you just want to buy a pet for the family, without regalia and pedigree, on average the animal will cost 20 thousand rubles.
As already mentioned, a distinctive feature of Bengal cats is their amazing leopard coloring: dark spots or rosettes adorn a light yellow or silver background.
A muscular build, a thick and rounded tail, a wide nose - all these are characteristics inherited from wild ancestors. But if you think that Bengals are similar to their ancestors not only in appearance, but also in character and manners, then you are very mistaken. Representatives of this breed are very kind, playful, sweet and welcoming creatures.
They completely lack the aggression inherent in their wild ancestors. They have a very lively, developed mind, thanks to which they previously survived in the wild. They become strongly attached to their owners; on the contrary, they are suspicious of strangers.
This animal will create an atmosphere of joy and fun in your home, because you really won’t get bored with it. It is quite difficult for Bengals to sit in one place, so these pets are often bought for children.
Although adults with the acquisition of such a pet will never have a feeling of loneliness and uselessness. After all, Bengal cats can be loyal friends, like dogs.
It is no coincidence that only this breed can be taught some techniques or tricks. In addition, this is one of those rare breeds of cats that is not at all afraid of water, but, on the contrary, enjoys taking a bath with its owner.
Another feature of this breed is its unusual meow, which is significantly different from the meow of other cats.

These sounds are similar to those made by a leopard cat, so when you hear them, you may think that you are somewhere in the Savannah.
Despite their uniqueness and rarity, Bengals do not require special care. Cleaning the ears with cotton swabs and removing excess hair are the main criteria for caring for any cats. As already mentioned, these animals will not have problems with bathing. It is worth taking them out into the fresh air as often as possible - after all, this was their main habitat in the past. It is very important to feed your Bengals quality food.
Their diet must include raw meat, and dry food must be only premium class. As we can see, caring for representatives of the Bengal breed is quite simple, so if you still doubt the purchase of such a kitten, then cast your doubts aside.
