Considering giving away my Bengal

I am about to buy my fifth pair of curtains because she ween on them and rips literally hundreds of holes in them. She also scratched at my sofa and has chewed through some of the material. She has a scratch post that she used.

She has ruined countless pairs of shoes by chewing through them. She's now kept away from shoes.

She urinates everywhere, on the carpet (not allowed upstairs anymore) on clothes, on the kitchen counters, on the hard floor. I eliminate the smell with enzyme cleaner but it makes no difference.

She is also bitey and scratchy. She will attack for no reason.

My house stinks, there's wee absolutely everywhere. My curtains look awful. I'm covered in scratches.

Please help?!

Here is a pic of the little terror. She's 1.5 btw.

No, it’s really irresponsible to be encouraging kittens for no reason. I’m sure owners who breed from their pets tell themselves all kinds of things to try and justify it but I’m afraid I think it only comes down to greed if the breeding is intentional, and sheer irresponsibility if it’s not.

My friend wants to breed from her dog because ‘she’s so maternal’ Hmm I hope she leaves the poor dog alone and doesn’t force a litter of puppies on her.

It's probably too late to get her a companion as a Bengal. I have two Bengals who are half siblings born two days apart from the same breeder. My breeder is always extremely helpful - I can ask her for advice if you like?
