Chopper, the Cat of the Day
Name: Chopper
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Bengal
Home: Houston, Texas, USA
 
   This is my bengal, Chopper. I got him after my other bengal died of unexplained causes. I was devastated but had fell in love with the bengal breed so I decided to get another one. He lives with his sister Molly and the newest addition, Ava. He was so shy when we first brought him home, but he eventually warmed up and we became the best of friends.

    He loves to be up high and will run up the side of a tall cat playland that my husband built. He is still very shy around strangers, but if you ignore him he will come over for a pat on the head. Every day I come home and find him buried under the covers of our bed - what a hard life! He will then jump up on the sink and wait for me to turn it on so he can drink some water. He also loves treats and that brown hairball medicine and will meow meow meow when I get either out until he can have some. Sometimes he will just walk around meowing in this loud, strange way, which they say is typical of bengals. He is definitely not a lap cat and does not like to be held at all. Sometimes I will get lucky and get to hold him for about 30 seconds. But he does love it when I get on the ground with him and pet him and kiss his head. He is also the softest cat I have ever felt. Well, I have probably gone on enough about Chopper, but he is so special and I love him so much.
