our bengal luuuuvs these. And this guy: https://www.amazon.com/Kong-Snake-Teaser-Pack-2/dp/B007B4WRM2/ref=sr_1_6?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1481460428&sr=1-6&keywords=snake+cat+toy
He catches it, and drags it off by the neck lol. But really they'll play with anything. The point is to give him options so that he's busy.
3. A tall cat tree is a great idea, ours loves his, but really our main problem is that to get our attention (seriously it's why he does it), he likes to get behind the tv and fuck w/the wires, or get between my desktop monitors and the wall and do the same. We've tried putting obstacles there, but he finds a way.
So really, just know that they generally always need/want your attention. It would help if there's another pet tbh, we've even entertained getting a puppy cause I think a dog or another bengal, so I think if the dog is cool w/cats, that will be the catalyst to a peaceful home w/a bengal. Good luck though, they're a handful, but incredibly intelligent. Have Fun!

Just guessing, but it sounds like you might not be stimulating the cat enough. I happen to have 3 kids so they keep the cat active. When our cat starts getting naughty we usually start playing with her. She really likes those mice attached to a thread attached to a stick, like this one:

Just sitting on the ground and flopping it around drives our cat crazy. My kids also take cardboard boxes and make "houses" out of them for the cat. The cat goes in and out of them and sleeps in them.

Usually our cat will play for about an hour or so, then she'll sleep for an hour or so. She does occasionally scratch the furniture and if she gets stuck on it we put a towel or something slippery over it so she can't do it anymore. I would try to distract your cat with good/fun things when she does something you don't want to do. Granted, this is a lot easier said than done. They become more calm with age.

It’s called a “Cat Dancer”. They’re super inexpensive ($1.99 on Amazon last time I bought one). My bengal would make these adorable chirping sounds he didn’t normally make while playing with it. It’s also great because you can tape it to the wall when your arm gets tired and they can bat at it on their own time. I’ve given them as gifts to several friends and every cat seems to love it. Here’s the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006N9I68/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_W5V7BbWNMZ1VK

I got it off amazon:)
It’s overpriced for what it is but he really likes it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, don't leave your drinks unattended. I personally won't drink out of a glass anymore (unless I'm going to watch it) because I know he'll stick his big dumb head into the glass and knock it over.

My best advice is first to avoid giving him time outs. Cats don't really understand the concept of punishment, regardless of the breed. A simple, firm "NO" (not yelling; just in a low voice) is enough. Alternatively, make a hissing noise at him whenever he does something bad and move him away from the area. He'll understand that better most likely. As other people have said, ignoring him is the best way. To cats, any attention is good attention, whether you intend for it to be negative or positive. Don't let him get your attention by knocking stuff over.

What I personally have done is given my bengal a larger bowl that he's able to dip his paws into. I bought a non-tip bowl for him and it's worked wonders. I purchased this bowl in the Medium size, giving him both enough room to drink out of and stick his paws into without making too much of a mess. I usually only fill it half way so he won't track around too much water. That way he has a way to play with water without trying to reach for my glass. If you give him a positive outlet for his natural curiosity for water, then you'll find he'll be more interested in his own bowl than your glass.

EDIT: My boy is around your cat's age as well, he's 11 months now. So I understand him being interested in literally everything you do, kittens are just nuts sometimes.

For the cat wheel, check craigslist, letgo, offerup, etc. Buy it second hand and get it for under $100 (list price is $200). I introduced my Bengal at about 18-20 weeks.

My kitten also LOVES these dollar toys: https://www.dollartree.com/greenbrier-kennel-club-plush-mouse-cat-toys-125-in/207358
They have a little jingly piece in there. They are without a doubt his favorite. He's destroyed 3 of them so far, but thankfully they're so cheap I can afford to replace them at will.

https://www.amazon.com/Bergan-Turbo-Scratcher-Colors-vary/dp/B000IYSAIW is a great scratcher/toy combo

My bengal is big on feather toys. Da Bird is hands down his favorite. He loves this thing. He also really likes the Kitty Kopter. We go through them regularly, but he'll toss them about on his own.

I can tell you what's NOT a winner: laser pointers. He's more interested in what's in my hand than the dot on the floor.

Out Bengal has also taken a while to warm up. He was like you described for a good few months. He’s getting better and let’s me pick him up for a little while now and likes to snuggle us when we are sleeping and he knows it safe. I also reached out to this community in the beginning and got a lot of good advice. This breed just takes longer to warm up than most. They’re hyper vigilant. Lots of treats has helped ours to trust us more.

And a random thought on something we bought him that he LOVES. The ripple rug. He can play in it but it also has all these holes so he can hide in it and feel safe. Or when he’s tired he sleeps on it. He’s obsessed with it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016H3T8EC?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Daughter talked me into buying one of these things. Used bottled water, but it took a LOT to fill it, especially daily! The filter was not able to handle bio contaminants like giardia (1 micron). Chlorine doesn't kill the little bastards either, as it turns out. Resorted to just using regular water bowls, and refreshing as much as we can. Didn't matter. Silly cat just loves to always stick his feet in the dish before he drinks, no matter what. Help! Send duct tape. 😂

We spent a lot of money on toys but our bengals Tend to play with them briefly and ignore them.

The things they want to play with for longer are the cheapest - potato chip bags tied in a knot, thrown for them. Tie string around one and they go mad for that too. You can get these too which are inexpensive and they love

Combine any of these with a cat tunnel that makes crinkling sounds and you’re probably set.

My big Bengal boy loves his scratching post and playing fetch. My girl loves her Da Bird toy, although I wouldn't get one until they are older due to development and such. I think my breeder recommended not encouraging excessive leaping until they are more developed, similar to not running a puppy under a year of age.

I'd recommend this one. They are Bengal proof... My girl has done backflips trying to get out of it when a loud truck drove up and it held. The only time she actually did get out was when she was in a tree and got it stuck on a branch, and she wiggled out of it. Plus they look pretty good on bengals :)

Buy a cat wheel, it's a must with a Bengal, lots of scratching things, a running water source, lots of toys.

Hands down her favorite toy is Da Bird.

Try one of these. You'd probably save enough from your water bill to pay it off really quickly.

If you get one of those cheap wire Cat Dancer toys and bend the wire around one of those Da Bird bundles of feathers or something similar, it will drive your cat absolutely batshit insane. The Dancer toy on it's own is good for Bengals because it's basically indestructible given the fact that it's just wire and some cardboard. Adding in the feathers puts it over the top.

I think it's mostly pent up energy, tho boredom can certainly contribute to the behavior. Kittens and young cats, especially Bengals, seem to have an endless supply of energy. Panting and seemingly dead tired one minute... bouncing off the walls the next. :D

One thing that I like a LOT more than the feather-on-a-stick toy for wearing them down is the ones that have the feather tied to the stick via a string or cord, like these:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000K9JRH8/

Those sticks always break, tho, so I got a small fishing pole, took the reel off, and just tie about 3 feet of line to the end of the pole with the feather toy on the other end:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079DPSRMC/

Don't cheap out of the feather toys... the cheap ones can fall apart within minutes. The Go Cat ones seem to last much longer, tho you always want to put them away after a play session.

With that setup, you can have her sprinting and leaping all over the place with minimal effort on your part.
