My neighbor has a Bengal cat and it's a wonderful cat and very friendly around his kids and around kids in the neighborhood.
He lets the Bengal Cat walk around outside in his fenced in yard and neighbors kids come by and play with and at least his Bengal cat loves to play.
I wish I could get me a Bengal Cat as I would love one but for now I just visit my neighbors Bengal Cat.
If you can afford the Bengal Cat I would recommend getting yourself a Bengal Cat as they're very good cats.
