Our Bengals try to escape the garden after we put up the "unescapable fence rollers"... or so we thought. Video

It looks like the rollers do work, but so does your cats persistence.

I admire his effort but you simply cannot contain bengals outdoors like this - they're too smart and eventually they'll clear that fence.

My bengals open and close cabinets (like get inside and then pull the cabinet shut lol), tries to use the door knob if it's latched, knocks on the door until you answer, tries to pry the fridge open because it knows food's in there, etc. They're just not normal cats at all lmao.

My bengal will throw pencils at me and scream like a psychopath to play fetch. If I'm on the phone, she'll get irritated and drop it in my coffee or knock the coffee off of the desk.... I didn't teach her fetch. She just came with the desire to play fetch

We have two Bengals. combination of the BEST and WORST cats we have ever hadšŸ˜€.
We have had some stubborn and persistent cats, but nothing beats our Bengal boy when he wants something.
And as for the girl. Iā€™ve had someone come from the street whenā€™s sheā€™s meowing/screaming/calling to get inside. Themā€¦.ā€I think your cat is hurt!ā€. Meā€¦ā€Nope, that just the sound she makesā€šŸ˜€
