I don't know if anyone else has experienced this but my little kitten is like a cross between a cat and dog in its behaviour. sleeping like a cat and playing like a dog. Let me know your thoughts by voting on what your Bengal is like.

I've never really understood the "like a dog" references to bengals, but you hear that a lot. All I can figure is that perhaps people that are more familiar with dogs than cats mean it as a compliment? Dunno. Don't get it.

My bengals play nothing like any dog I've ever seen. Concealment, stalking, sneak attacks, pouncing, leaping 5-6 ft in the air, occasionally doing graceful backflips and "sticking the landing" when trying to get flying objects etc. I suppose the one thing that they do that dogs also do is to bring me things to throw, and then fetch. Only about 50% of the time when they catch up to the thrown object, they then take it and head the opposite direction away from me They are like "yea, I'll bring it back to you when I'm good and ready...this is MY game, not yours"... typical cat.

Nope, my two bengals are nothing like my dog. My dog plays like a dog, my cats play like cats, much to my dog's chagrin. What behaviours are your cats displaying that are dog-like?

Mine are fifty-fifty. They heel/herd us around the house. They walk on leashes. Max's tail wags constantly when he is happy. They both went through a fetch phase. They sleep at the foot of the bed like dogs, quite often.

However they're headstrong, loving, snuggly, hold grudges, pounce, play, and zip around like cats. Or mountain goats sometimes. So, maybe they're 25/75 dog/cats. :)

Raiden does nothing like a dog! Nothing! LOL

Katniss makes those weird jittering noises when she is chasing a fishing rod toy, reminds me of a dog barking.. Never heard a cat do that before, but I have read from somewhere that sometimes they do do it when in hunting mode. She also picks things up with her mouth and carries it around, which also reminds me of a dog behaviour, but is apparently a Bengal thing. Other than that she is defo a cat.

No fetching toys for Raiden. Even on a leash, he doesn't act like a dog. He walks two steps, stops, looks around, sniffs the ground, walks another two steps, same .. over and over. I get zero exercise with him.

I have 2 and they have 2 totally differing personalities but they're both definitely more catlike than doglike.....they both have some doglike traits which are totally different for each cat....
