Nope that's exactly the same the first three hybrid generations fo wof-dog hybrids are especially concerning in behavioral issues it's the 4 th generations that are "safer" etc...that must be some kind of wild hybrid rule of thumb etc.
I don't know seems responsible to me. Were they given ample room and habitat and allowed outside in an enclosed area-my opinion of course on my opinion of standards of care and responsibility. People have house cats but I'm guessing Bangels are not the same obviously...I feel bad for house cats too though never allowed out...I mean if they can't be out for their safety or other's I'd hope they'd get an enclosure to be able to be "out" in some form.
I'm more familiar with pure wolfs than hybrids but am aware of their issues etc. Friend had a bobcat kittens...no really bob cat (lynx) was impregnated by a domestic cat...

Bengals are bred by an Asian Leopard cat (small wild cat from Bay of Bengal) with a domestic cat - tabbies were one of the first ones bred. The first and second generation are quite wild. My breeding females were 4th generation and their offsprings were even more removed from the wild. Mine were extremely friendly with anyone who came to my home. The term "wolf-dog" would I assume, be the first or second generation and not too trustworthy - I have know experience so can't judge. For my cats' own protection they have always been inside. Not too irresponsible, don't you think?? |
