It seems small for a bengal, although females can be smaller. Personality seems right.

Whenever I introduce a new cat, I start out with the newbie in a room. That's going to be tough for a bengal. Then, usually some way where they can see each other, but not interact. I once had several door gates from floor to ceiling, especially when a climber is involved. After about a week, I'd let them out as the slow introduction was driving everyone crazy.

That's what I did with my birds when I introduced them. I put them in cages next to each other for a couple of days before putting them in the same cage. @BrewCityBarfly

Bengals even the small ones are extremely aggressive cats. And will always want to be the top cat. You may have to keep them separate for a while I need to smell each other but you separate pans and separate dishes. Bengals are wonderful but can cause you some unique challenges

Two litter boxes, separate feeding areas, and TWO areas where both cats can go to hide...such as two cat trees.

Cats are just like that. It just takes awhile for them to get comfortable with each other

I thought you meant a Bengal tiger cub.
