Sherry, I think you are right, I am leaning towards an F1 :lol:

I guess that's obvious. But you made me wonder if their ALC does get to interact with the kittens, I am going to ask her that! I am very curious now. I do know he is pretty socialized. He does scare away from strangers and prefers his main owner but he obviously isn't aggressive. She posted a video of him purring and rubbing against her and it was precious! But she did say that if anyone random comes over he may hide because he doesn't know them... Well that's not crazy, one of my house cats does that too ha. But thanks for checking them out! I appreciate your insight and opinion :] I hope your little Bengal isn't driving you too crazy today!

ALC's usually bond with one person only and they are a wild cat, so it's natural for them to be fearful of other humans. However, I do believe they can be a loving pet. ALCs were common in pet stores decades ago and anyone could adopt them. So they aren't a vicious wild cat. I thought I saw on their website that all of their F1s are taken right now and to get on a waiting list for the next litter. I can absolutely understand your infatuation with the F1. I am as well, but I just know I couldn't handle all that comes with one. Raiden is an F9, 8 years old, 13.5 pounds and he's a maniac at times. Currently, he's sleeping on a table by the window here in the same room I'm in. I love the little guy and treat him more like a child than a cat. You are definitely a cat lover and with everything you've posted, I think an F1 is the right choice for you. And then you can post periodically on how the kitty is doing.

Yeah I remember reading that ALCs used to be able to be owned as pets. In my area you can but have to have a license. You can however own a F1 with no issues, as well as a Savannah cat. And yeah they do have a wait list, I have been on that for a bit and was informed I should be able to get one this time around in the next few months so that's why I am really trying to decide now so that I don't miss out again!
Anyways, Raiden sounds like quite the guy! I'd love to see a picture of him! Glad he's having a relaxing Saturday so that you can too! :lol:

And I will keep everyone in the loop as I get more info as well! Thanks again :]

Thank you! He's currently bothering the heck of me at the computer. He loves to walk on the keyboard and type his own posts. We've had our hour walk this morning, he has food in his bowl, he's had treats. I think the only left is play time and I need to get things done around the house. You can see the slit in his left ear from a vicious cat fight before I got him. He has so many battle scars it isn't funny! But, he's still my handsome little boy!
