I was given a bengal/desert lynx mix kitten by some person that I didn't even really know... His old name is Mundo and I didn't like it so I changed his name to Mr. Spock, Spocky for short.

I have always wanted a bengal because they are so much like dogs compared to other cats... and when one was handed to me I of course couldn't say no. So here he is!

I love your cat! I have one that looks very similar I have had since he was a baby, he's about a year and half old now. they are so much like dogs, mine plays fetch with me all the time, probably his favorite thing to do. he's always at my heals and comes when I call his name, plus my room mates tell me he sits by the door and cries when I'm late getting home from work. you're going to love your new friend.

The guy that gave him to me as an adult Bengal, and he takes it almost everywhere with him on a harness and a leash, the cat loves to go out... I swear, it's like a meowing dog, haha!

Spocky is a little bit afraid of the dogs but that's to be expected since he's only ever had cat friends. Thankfully the dogs try their hardest to pretend that he doesn't exist so everything is peaceful for the most part.

I actually have 2 of them in my house (1 is mine and the other is my room mate' s) And they are brothers from the same litter So they play a lot, the next thing I'm gonna build after my tort pens is a "cat- io" so they can spend nice days outside without losing them.

I may have to get a harness for him I never really thought about taking a walk with him

Isn't a lynx a wild cat? They're cats with big paws. Adorable! Good luck and keep him away from your tort!

Desert lynx cats aren't wild lynxes, hehe. They are like Bengals in that they have some wildcat in them from WAAY back, most people think it's bobcats. They look a lot like bobcats

I have a Bengal, he will be 16 in June. They are something alright. Nocturnal too. Of course I didn't tell my hubby that part until the cat was already in our home:D
Mine is named Bennie.
