Haku is 12 weeks girl, came to me a week ago, and settled to her new home just in three days. I don't know if she's bonded with me, but she never leash train, and she are now able to walk on leash outside for the forth day.
She learned to shake hands in one day (only if she saw me with food).
But....
She doesn't respond to her name
(My other cat, I can tell if they knew I was calling her, and 80% of time she would come to me when I call, but Haku won't even look at me)
And
Just starting today, she bites me, like any part of my body, it's not that hurt but idk if it's norm? She bites like a dog bite on a toy
----
And I would like to know how to tell if I'm bonded with my Bengal, cause it comes so natural to me and my other cat. It's my first time to be a Bengal mama.

Ok, I'll help you out... NO YOU'RE NOT BONDED WITH HER! Not after 1 week. That comes after months and years being together. It's really not even appropriate to be fixated over such things right now. Right now it's about getting her comfortable in her new home, making sure all her needs are taken care of, and learning about what her likes and dislikes are and what kind of kitty she is (i.e., her personality). And yea, she's going to beat you up pretty good over the next 9 months or so (it's going to get waaaaay worse before it gets better), but that's what you've signed up for in getting a bengal cat. Bengals are all about activity and interaction. They like to have things to do, and they love to practice their hunting skills in order go graduate into a full-fledged adult bengal. You're going to have to find ways of satisfying those needs of hers that don't involve her biting (or scratching) you. You should look at a bite or a scratch from her as her wanting to play with you, but not knowing what sorts of games you are capable of playing. Once you've establishes a good routine with her, that involves quiet time, play time, feeding times etc., things will get a bit easier. Cats love routines and will adapt to yours if you adapt to them in return.

Give it time. You're both still getting used to each other. I know you want to love on her and be as close to her as you can -- but she is just adjusting to her new home. Patience is the key.

Arikah,

I had a little cousin, after his first ever day at school he came home and announced that he wouldn't be going back, because they hadn't taught him to be a pilot.

Haku is still very new to your house and household. Take it easy and let her settle in, let her, metaphorically, get her feet under the table and let her feel secure, then there will be plenty of time for working out that when her human makes a certain sound that means "come find me". Teach her that biting means an end to play and any sort of attention. Then, over time the bond will come.

Patience, love, fulfilling her needs to play and eventually, if you are lucky, snuggle, those are the things Haku needs right now.

By no means am I an expert because my Bengal is 12 weeks also and we've only had her for a little over a week but in the middle of the night she kept attacking us while we were sleeping. We have found that if we make sure to play with her after each nap and when she bites or scratches we have been picking her up and putting her on her cat tree or giving her a toy to replace our arms or feet. Her random attacks have stopped so far the past 3 nights. Again we are also new Bengal parents but it has seemed to be positive for us.

We also invested in an automatic laser pointer that we turn on when we leave to occupy her. Best investment we've made so far, even stopped her crying when we had to go out.

One of my cats pants when she plays with Da Bird too. I usually get scared and stop. I never saw a cat get so wound up.
