She is a tiny but mighty little lady! She is currently in foster with a very experienced family who has a gentle young resident male Bengal who truly wants to be friends with her. Unfortunately, Queens must rule alone so we’ll obey her wishes.
Yes she is GORGEOUS (look at her STUNNING rosettes!!)…but she also has lots of purr-sonality!
Like most Bengals, she LOVES to play - but once that’s out of the way, she is EXTREMELY affectionate and snuggly.
Because she is reactive to the resident cat, our foster has to juggle their time to give both feline residents adequate one-on-one time. During those times when Beyonce is on her own for a short period, she literally lines up all of her toys at the door as a “hint” that her humans should NOT forget to play with her as soon as they rejoin her.
She absolutely adores any wand toy that is offered, and she absolutely loves her YEOWW!!! Catnip Banana toy.
Beyonce barely weighs 7 lbs. yet she’s truly an Olympian! She is ready to play whenever you are. Even when she is fast asleep - if she hears the rustle of a toy, she is on her feet in record time and is ready to pounce. She is rough with her toys, but knows how to quickly switch to gentle mode when she gets too close to a human, or if a hand gets in the way during play time. She seems to be very careful with her people.
Beyonce is currently eating Primal raw frozen nuggets, a mix of the chicken/beef and salmon and turkey, and she gets a tablespoon of pumpkin and water each day. She’s very treat-motivated, and loves freeze dried beef, chicken and mussels. She had some bloating and indigestion on food that had some additives, and now has been doing much better with the raw diet. But she is not a picky eater! She absolutely loves her water fountain.
Beyonce gets an “A” in litter box skills. She is extremely clean and has excellent litter box manners.
Beyonce absolutely CANNOT live in a home with other pets and has not been around children or dogs. She is thriving in her home that isn’t overly bustling or noisy. She truly loves her humans! For this reason we think she would make an excellent companion for an adult family who has plenty of time to keep her busy. She promises to reward her new humans with love and gentle head-butts.
Surprisingly, she is VERY good at self-regulation. If she gets over-stimulated, she’ll quietly go seek out some “me time” until she’s ready for the games to begin again. That’s unusual, in such a young cat.
Beyonce isn’t overly vocal. If she is closed away from you at night, she will get lonely and you may hear a meow that sounds like a cute little “hello?” She has the most adorable little chirps when she's seeking affection and receiving it, and likes to “yodel” when she sees her food arriving.
Like most Bengals, she’s not a fan of being picked up. Over time she’ll likely get better about that, but her foster family is respecting her boundaries. Overall she is extremely generous with love and affection, and will fall asleep with her head tucked under your arm. She likes to find little caves to explore. Bonus! If you like to do yoga, plan on a cat crawling under your child's pose! She absolutely loves a little scratch right above her tail, and loves to make biscuits. She is extremely smart and is receptive to behavior training with treats.
Overall she is a brave little kitty who needs a quiet, safe space to land that she feels like she can finally call her own. She needs patience with warming up and building trust, and lots of affection. Once she’s settled in with you, she will undoubtedly become a fun, loyal, sweet and loving companion.
Beyonce is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and overall a very healthy beautiful girl. If you are interested in adopting Beyonce, please fill out our adoption application.
