Meaeeeow, do you want to play with me?

Kittens talk to their mother immediately after they are born. Mostly they make soft sounds, but they also can squeak loudly. When everything is going well you can only hear soft sounds of satisfied kittens drinking and their mother purring in the den.After a few weeks the kittens have learned that they can get our attention by calling us or using body language.And it works, when a kitten looks at you with his big shiny blue eyes; he immediately has a taste of success. You immediately pick him up, hug and kiss him, or play with him.Our Bengals talk a lot with us, but talking with their eyes is always successful and they know it.

 

 

 

1 We can stay in the playpen, but we also can play in the great outdoors. Yesterday we discovered a lot of interesting toys to play with. Yes, yes let us get out of the playpen and run and run and jump and have a ball.

2 We had a ball indeed, after playing we like to have a nap but we do not want to go back in the playpen. We found an excellent hiding place; it is a soft and warm cave. We like to stay there…..sssshhh….be quiet…we will see what comes of our idea. There is a problem, where does mummy has her nap, she does not fit in here……sssshhh…sssshhh,  go to sleep.

 

3. Do I hear mummy coming? I can hear the others walking toward the kitchen, what is the reason for their actions? This smell communicates:” there is delicious fish for lunch”. I have to draw attention: “meaeeeow…meaeeeow….I would like to have some fish…meaeeeow “. Now I  do want to get out the playpen.

4 Where is everybody? I am bored. I want to get out. Is there someone to get me out? I also want some hugging and kissing, where is everybody?

 

 

Wasilla has grown up now but she still is able to achieve her wishes and desires with a blink of her spectacular eyes. Yes I can conclude that we spoil our Bengals, but I don’t think that is wrong, it is my interpretation of their cat language.

 

 

 

 

Say, " cheese”.

 

 

When Shadee is in the garden she mostly plays or relaxes, but she also has the instinct of a predator. After inspecting her territory she chooses an observation point and sits there watching. All cats love a sunny place and laze in the sunshine, but Shadee is not lazy at all. She sits between the flowers because there are always a lot of insects visiting the flowers. She only has to wait to catch one, an easy catch indeed. Shadee uses a centuries-old hunting technique that wild cats still use. A group of lions can relax under a tree for hours, before they go hunting. Shadee’s summer observation point is also very photogenic

 

 

Wanata is a hunter, as a kitten he hunted everything: a toy, boxes or shoes .

In the garden he always takes his time to inspect his territory, taking changes in into account. He seldom sits and waits under a tree or another hiding place. He is confident to catch his prey through his velocity. With huge leaps he crosses the distance to his prey and in a few seconds he climbs a tree. All the time he is focussing on his prey.
