thanks for the welcome


Actually they suposivly have papers
but I have to work my way through a chain of ppl to get to the original owner. See she gave them to her friend who gave them to her boyfriend who gave them to his dad who gave them to the guy i got them from. Now he is trying to get her phone number. I did some research and I found this website.

http://www.kingsmarkfarms.com/bengals/kingpattern.htm

And so they may be right if you look at the charcoal with black spots the first one in the second row.

but the day I see paperwork is the day I believe it.


I guess I just have my hopes set high lol but can ya blame me?

i will try and take better pics expecially of the female. but I need good lighting for that.

Some of the cats on the website look like Bengals, but more pet quality. Your cats don't have the right head shape. The breeder is also working with another breed with a much skinnier type - perhaps your cats are crosses between the two.

But if you look at some other Bengal breeders who SHOW their cats, then you will see the differences in pet or quality cats. In the end, it really doesn't matter that much if they are or not - they still are pretty stricking cats.

I'm not sure if I'd tell people they are Bengals


I know with Ocicats, you have some other "non-spotted" cats cause of the background of Aby/Siamese/American SH and you get 4 different patterns. But even in the other patterns, the type/head is still Ocicat looking

Hi Mandie
Welcome to TCS from one Bengal Mom to another!
You have beautiful cats. I look forward to seeing pictures of your Melanistic. We don't get many pictures of those gorgeous babies.


I hope to see you around the site.

Hello & welcome to tcs. Your cats are gorgeous, whatever they are. I learned something today, that there are black bengals, I haven't heard of or seen them before.
