Bengals are supposed to have puffy whisker pads, but our 2 month old silver boy, Trace, looks like he has implants.

Are you sure he didn't try to sniff a bumblebee?


I wanna pinch those "cheeks"!

Awww, he looks like he's smiling!
He has an innocent look on his face, like he just broke a vase or something and tries to pretend that he didn't do it.

The whisker pads indeed look like implants or that they were photoshopped.

OMG! How adorable! Maia is a whisker cheeks puffer to! Here's one of her as a kitten so happy to be dry after her first bath!

So cheeky!

He's a doll! Love the whisker pads.
I really love whisker pads that look like little pom-poms have been put on their sides of their nose. Mojo has that, but I think it's partly an optical illusion because of her very small, angular face and then these round little whisker pads. But that boy is ALL natural whisker pad puff!

Wow, his whisker pads are huge! They are SO adorable!
It makes him look like a tiger or a leopard. I mean, it makes him look more wild. And also, more cute. I want to pinch his little cheeks and kiss him all over.
I love your cats.
I think I am kind of a fangirl.

Thanks everyone for the comments!

BTW, he's staying and he's being named after his half brother Jack. Some of you may remember him: Full Metal Jacket

Trace's new name is: Meridian Full Metal Jacket part Deux.

And Jan,
He does look like he tangled with a bumblebee!

He's a cutie-pie, though!
