I would try an interactive play session when she's getting aggressive, maybe a fairly long one to start with.

Welcome to our forum. There are two types of trackers: bluetooth and GPS. The bluetooth trackers have a range of 100 to 200 feet and you must be within that range to find your cat. Thus, if your cat is 300 feet away, you will not track the cat. You have to keep walking until the cat comes into the range. GPS trackers will find your cat anywhere in the world. It uses satellite technology. GPS trackers are not cheap and are larger products. Many people use the bluetooth trackers and hope for the best. If your cat is locked inside a neighbor's garage, the bluetooth may not work as walls will block the transmission.

There are a couple other things you might try since it is very dangerous for a bengal to be outside. Forget cats, dogs, coyotes, children trying to harm it, someone wanting to steal your beautiful kitty (which has happened to other owners), poisons, getting locked somewhere they cannot escape and expire due to no food or water. No tracker will help in those cases.

Create a safe outdoor environment. A catio or cat enclosure. They can be permanent or temporary. You can purchase temporary ones online. Train your kitty to walk on a harness and take your kitty for walks. Mine gets two walks a day AND has a 12'x12' cat enclosure on our desk. He was an outdoor cat with his previous owner and got into numerous fights with other cats. Mine cannot be outside unsupervised.

You can Google "cat enclosure" or "catio" and see some great ideas. This is not to say your baby won't continue to attempt to get outside. Mine does and I either shut him in a room so I can go through the door without worry or make sure he is far enough way that he can go out with me. It has happened that he is fast and through my legs before I can think. But, He will usually just stop once be gets outside and I can grab him.

When I first moved in with Oberon, he went nuts trying to get outside or on the balcony or into the garage. He would jump on every door handle in the house.

After several months he calmed down. Maybe because of the Feliway pheromone diffusers and Sargeants Calming collars. Or maybe it was just time. At least 4 months.

I started trying to get him on the balcony with me, under supervision. He seems to have lost interest in getting out. He mellowed and became happy with staying indoors, occasionally bouncing off walls and stairway railings.

Maybe your Bengal just needs time before adjusting to the move.

I would be very reluctant to let our boy outside unsupervised. If he sees something that interests him (bird, squirrel etc) everything else is forgotten. This is fine in our garden when supervised. However, with roads and cars it could be fatal. Additionally, a Bengal cat is obviously a very tempting target for thieves.

My Raiden is almost 12 and there has been no mellowing out for him. He demands his walks and is constantly at one of the doors yowling and waiting. He'll even go to the door at 3 a.m. thinking I'll harness him up and take him out. NOT. Every bengal is different. But, they should not be allowed to run free.

Spanky is my 19 year old male Bengal and he is deaf so we take walks together, sans a leash. He was out today for four walks and the last one, i carried him 5 houses down the street to the mail lock box and it took us 15 minutes to make it home as he was busy sniffing everything and making faces. Back yard gates are regularly checked if they are open and an open or partially open garage is always a strong temptation. He can sprint his way home so fast that he has to curve his tail. When there are quails around, a group usually follows him since they know that he will not bother them. He will charge at pigeons, wrens and turtle doves. He did chase a field mouse that Kayley had carried to the patio. I thought that her eyes were going to pop out as she watched the two.

ptolemy and the Bengal 3

Raiden has many more years of walks in front of him!

Well, the walks are wearing on ME! It's been way below freezing here, so Raiden's gone out the door and right back in. And this morning, we saw a huge, beautiful coyote behind our back fence in the area Raiden walks every day (when the temp allows). Coyotes have been seen all over the place in our subdivision in broad daylight. Scary.
