Bengals wouldn't be Bengals without the Asian Leopard Cat. Its Order is Carnivore.
Its Family is Felidae. Its Genus is Felis. They are nocturnal loners, so they don't
travel in a pride or pack. Asian Leopard Cats are found naturally in Islands of
Malaysia and Thailand extending to the mainland of Asia. They live near streams
and for this reason they hunt near water, they also have no fear of water and are
known to defecate in it. Because Asian Leopard Cats are genetically compatible with
domestic cats, we now have what we call the Bengal cat. Relatively small,
approximately 16 pounds. The ALC's in the southern climates have the darkest coat
colors and their clear unticked coats display sharp contrast of spots. As for spots,
some have rosetting, some have solid one color spots. Some spots are round, some
are arrowhead in shape. The estrous cycle is annual in the cooler climates usually
giving birth near the month of May. Litters average one to four cubs. The Asian
Leopard Cat has many varieties considered nearly extinct and endangered.
