I don't know much about the breed, but I'm planning to possibly adopt a Bengal kitten. I visited her yesterday at home, and the owner told me that Bengals can only eat food with 70-80% protein, otherwise they poo a lot (?!) and have other digestion problems. Also she said that they eat a lot more than other cats.
I already have a cat, so I need to be sure that my budget is enough for the two of them. I plan to feed them dry food (my cat drinks a lot, and the kitten is also a big drinker, there shouldn't be a problem, pls don't try to dissuade me about it, I have my reasons).
1) Is it completely impossible to feed Bengals kibble like Brit Care and such? Foods like that aren't THE best, but they're very good. Will they upset their digestion, though?
2) How much more do they actually eat than other cats: twice more, 1.5. more? It's very important to know in order to calculate my budget correctly.
