Are Bengal cats really hypoallergenic?
Lalee wrote: He just happened to fall in love with a picture of a Bengal cat for sale on Craigslist! I caught him many times looking at the kitten's picture the week after, and doing online research about this breed... check out these picture, isn't it the cutest kitten in the world? http://www.craigslist.org/sby/for/139085485.html No. It looks amazingly like every spotted Tabby kit at every Humane Society I have ever set foot in. All kittens are adorable. Woudn't it be the most amazing gift? No, it would be a very stupid and ill-thought-out gift for someone who presumably has never had a cat and is allergic to them. Of course we both know what a serious commitment it is, and I want to make sure that we are both ready to welcome a kitten ... If he wants a kitten, let him pick one out. Research cat guardianship, and then take a tour of your local Humane Society. If you are still intent on getting a kitten, apply to adopt one from a shelter. DO NOTsupport breeding when perfectly healthy cats die by the thousands in shelters, every day, for lack of homes. You may be smitten by the looks of the Bengal kit, but I can assure you you will be smitten when you see the antics of dozens of kittens waiting for homes in the shelter cages. Saving a life is an amazing gift; there is no higher glory! -L. |
