In this neck of the woods, we have a slight infatuation with Bengal Cats. It’s hard not to, really, since Bengal Cats are absolutely stunning, clever, and one-of-a-kind. Let me introduce you to Mose, a Charcoal Bengal Cat who just turned four. Mose has a little bit of an obsession with The Office, the famous American TV show featuring Steve Carell, John Krasinksi, and Rainn Wilson, among others. His Instagram account is a delightful combination of his gorgeous appearance and witty captions that never fail to entertain. Believe me when I say that Mose is an incredibly handsome cat, and his social media presence is a constant source of amusement. We can’t stress enough how much you should check it out. Don’t miss our interview with Mose and his family, it’s a must-read! So here he is, Mose, a four-year old Charcoal Bengal Cat, living his best life.
As per the information provided by UC Davis, Bengal cats with charcoal coats exhibit a distinctive pattern featuring a darker mask on their face and a thick dorsal stripe known as a “cape.”
The unique and captivating “charcoal” pattern that you see in my cousin Mose, is created when a domestic cat with a non-agouti variant and an Asian Leopard Cat with an agouti variant come together.
We inquired about the adoption story of my cousin Mose, and his humans were happy to share. Mose’s mom fondly recalls how they crossed paths – it all started when a breeder reached out, inquiring if she would be willing to take on a “project Bengal.” As it turns out, Mose had been quite wild and untamed during his early kittenhood. However, captivated by his mesmerizing, emerald-green eyes, she couldn’t resist but fall head over heels. And from that moment on, their lives became beautifully intertwined, creating their own unique history together.

Intrigued and instantly drawn to Mose’s mesmerizing photographs, our curiosity was piqued, prompting us to yearn for a deeper understanding of this absolutely endearing feline.
Mose’s mother excitedly shared with us about his impeccable palate when it comes to indulging in delectable snacks. She exclaimed, “Mose’s ultimate go-to treat that he simply cannot resist is none other than raw beef!”

It goes without saying that I had to invest in a new tablet.”
Isn’t this the epitome of purity? (Sneaky question, every cat has a “innocent” countenance!)
What is Mose’s passion? “Mose has a deep fondness for anything involving a string. Whether it’s the strings on a hoodie or the drawstrings on pants, he simply adores playing with them.”
Mose doesn’t reside in solitude with his human companions; in fact, he is part of an extensive and magnificent clan of feline wonders.
According to his owners, they informed us that Mose is the sole male member residing in a household of five Bengals.
She further commented, stating that the cat holds an undeniable position of power, often taking charge and exerting authority over his sisters. She humorously remarked that he handles his role with expertise, effectively managing his siblings. A true depiction of the cat in a position of leadership!
