It sounds to me like you didn't know what you were getting when you got a Bengal. Get him some company so that he has someone to bounce around with.

Letting him outside is the cat owners equivalent of putting a child in front of the telly as a babysitter. Sure - he'll love it, that is until he's dead. If you think he's going to stay in the cul de sac and not head up to the nearest main road then you're mistaken.

Brits have this crazy idea that it's not 'fair' to keep the cat inside. Would you let a dog out to roam? If not, why not?

Totally agree, my Alfie sometimes bounces off the walls and has mad moments and would probably love to go and explore outside to use some energy.. but I just start playing with his toys with him when he's like that and then he's fine!

I'm also training him to walk on a leash so I can take him outside for some fresh air.

I would NEVER let Alfie out, you can get a cat micro chipped but it doesn't work as a tracking device!

If you're still going to let your Bengal out then I wouldn't expect to have him as a pet for long.
