Hi, me and my family are considering a Bengel, so I will have a lot of questions.
Here are some:
1. We currently have an altered 2 year old female domestic shorthair cat, two large dogs, and a seven year old girl. The dogs get along with the cat great and so does the our child (her cat). The shorthair is an inside cat and so will the Bengal. Would an altered male bengel be better for us then a female?

2. Are there any good breeders in the Tennessee area? Has anybody know any thing about Enchanted Kits http://enchantedkits.com/About.html or Regal Air http://www.regalairbengals.com/about-us.htm ? I was hoping to find someone local to meet with the cats.

3. We both are gone from the house for about 9 hours a day. At home most of the weekend. Also my wife is a school teacher so she gets to play with the cat almost three months straight. Will a Bengal be happy with us?

I would go with a male cat. From my experience, there's a greater chance that two females will not get along. Of course it's possible, but if it were me, I'd just go with the safer option of getting a male.

I don't think your schedules will be a problem for you to get a Bengal, especially since you have other pets to keep him company. Granted, your girl may not be able to keep up with the Bengal in terms of active-ness, but I don't think he will be lonely with dogs if they get along. Some Bengals do require more attention than others, so you may have to time play sessions in the morning before you go to work and at night when you come back, if he so wishes.

I'll let someone else answer the Tennessee breeder question.

thanks for the reply
