Hi All,
My girlfriend and I made an account here, because we are nearing the time to pick our new kitten, Pixel, up! We're obviously very excited.
Some background: Girlfriend has had ample experience with animals, but this will be our first Bengal. We are nearing the completion of the construction of our new home. For the time being, the home will be a single pet household and Pixel will be able to command the house! But we'd like to eventually introduce another Bengal once we get acquainted with Pixel.
We are planning on building some cat trees and furniture/shelves for her to climb on and we both work early morning to early afternoon hours so lots of time to play after work. My only concern is the porch that we have. The porch will eventually be screened in (we live in Florida, it's a requirement to keep the wildlife (read: snakes) out!) However, after visiting the breeder and seeing just how agile and eager to climb they are, I'm worried Pixel may tear through the screen. What are your thoughts on this? We like the idea of letting her onto the porch which gives her fresh air, but also a safe environment, but don't want her to tear through the screen and escape!
Thanks for any guidance you can provide! Lots of pictures as soon as we get her!
