Kusunga mphaka wa Bengal kumafuna malo ambiri. Kusewera kokwanira ndi mwayi wokwera kuyenera kuperekedwa, chifukwa chake kugula kokanda kwakukulu ndikofunikira. Kuphatikiza apo, mphaka wa Bengal amafunikira malo akunja kapena khonde lotetezedwa kuti atulutse nthunzi. The chikhalidwe nyama ayenera kukhala pamodzi ndi conspecifis osati kukhala yekha kwa nthawi yaitali. Kugwira ntchito molimbika kumapangitsa kuti phazi lanzeru la velvet lisakhale lovuta. Nyama zina zimasangalalanso ndi mwayi wochita zinthu mogwirizana ndi chikondi chawo pamadzi.
The Bengal mphaka amatchedwa mphaka wosakanizidwa. Mtunduwu udapangidwa podutsa amphaka akuweta komanso amphaka amtchire a dzina lomwelo ndipo amadziwikanso ndi dzina loti Leopardette. Maonekedwe awo amavumbulabe ubale womwe ulipo ndi makolo awo akutchire.
Mu 1934 mtanda wa mphaka woweta ndi mphaka wakutchire wa Bengal (wotchedwanso mphaka wa nyalugwe) unatchulidwa koyamba m’magazini ya sayansi ya ku Belgium. Popeza kuti amphaka amtchire nthawi zambiri amakhala ndi chitetezo chachilengedwe ku matenda a FeLV (feline leukemia virus), kufufuza kunayamba m'ma 1970 ngati chitetezo ichi chikhoza kubadwa mwachindunji.
Kafukufukuyu adatulutsa amphaka ambiri osakanizidwa, koma osati ndi cholinga chenicheni choberekera mtundu wawo.
Kumayambiriro kwa 1963, katswiri wa chibadwa Jean Sudgen anabereketsa mphaka wamkazi wa nyalugwe wa ku Asia ku tomcat ya m'nyumba. Cholinga chake chinali kugwirizanitsa maonekedwe a thupi ndi ubweya wa mphaka wakutchire ndi khalidwe la mphaka wa m'nyumba.
Sizinafike mpaka 1972 pomwe adapitiliza mtundu uwu ndi ma hybrids angapo. Mtundu wotchuka wa amphaka wapakhomo unatuluka kuchokera kumagulu amenewa. Masiku ano amphaka a Bengal amabadwa mwachibadwa. Amphaka a Bengal okha ndi omwe amapatsirana wina ndi mzake, koma osatinso, monga momwe zinalili ndi kutuluka kwa mtunduwo, mitundu ina (mwachitsanzo Abyssinian kapena American Shorthair). Ngakhale mayanjano ambiri sazindikira mphaka wa Bengal, bungwe la amphaka la ku America TICA lidafotokoza za mtundu woyamba wa amphaka mu 1986.
Makhalidwe okhazikika
Amphaka a Bengal ndi amphaka amphamvu ndipo amakhala achangu komanso okonda kusewera mpaka ukalamba. Amakonda kukwera ndi kudumpha. Mbalame yamtchire yasunga mbali ya cholowa chake chakutchire ndi chikondi cha madzi chomwe chimapita nawo. Iye ndi mlenje wabwino kwambiri komanso nyama yauzimu, yolimba mtima. Kupanda mantha kumeneku kungayambitse mavuto panja, popeza mphaka wa Bengal amatha kukhala wokonda madera. Monga Balinese, mwachitsanzo, amadziwika chifukwa cholankhulana komanso amalankhula mokweza ndi anthu ake ndi mawu ake odabwitsa.
Khalidwe ndi chisamaliro
Bengal yosewera amafunikira kuchita zinthu zambiri, apo ayi, amatha kukhala ndi vuto la khalidwe. Popeza mphaka wa Bengal alinso ndi chidwi chofuna kusuntha, malo ambiri komanso mipata yosiyanasiyana yokwerera ndiyofunikira. Cholemba chachikulu chokanda ndichabwino kwa izi. Kuphatikiza apo, mitundu yokwanira iyenera kuperekedwa, khonde lotetezedwa kapena dimba, chifukwa chake, ndi mwayi pakusunga mtundu uwu. Kugwira ntchito m'maganizo ndi katundu wowonjezera kwa oumba velvet. Zoseweretsa zanzeru ndizoyenera izi, monga fiddle board yopangidwa kunyumba kapena clicker ndi maphunziro achinyengo.
Mphaka wa Bengal ndi nyama yochezera ndipo nthawi zambiri imakhala bwino ndi amphaka ena. Komabe, zodziwikiratu siziyenera kukhala zazikulu kwambiri, chifukwa velvet yodzidalira yokha imadziwa zomwe ikufuna. Chifukwa cha ubweya wawo waufupi, mphaka wa Bengal si amodzi mwa amphaka omwe amawasamalira kwambiri, koma amayenera kusunthidwa nthawi ndi nthawi.
