No bengal no, but many goodies anyways. Point, check, tabby, check, tortie, check, with white, check. I possibly forgot something. Ah, yes, sweet and cute -check.

DSH, Tortoise mitted lynx point?
As Catpack hints, he isnt no Reaper, he is a good provider. Giving you his protection care and love.
I agree, he is sooner a very nice moggie tabby than some misunderstood bengal.
Hi All,
Today I found this forum and this thread and I actually have a similar question. See below our loved Cat which we think he might have some Bengal in him. Some information about his character. Floki is by far the most intelligent cat we have ever had, the only cat that plays fetch. He loves water. He is an active cat that wants to play a lot more then our maine coone. He is not that vocal, only when he wants to go outside or when he want food.
What do you guyz think if you have a look at the pictures and the above?
Thanks in advance for your time!

It's hard to say unless they have papers. Your cat may well be part Bengal, but only part because of the white feet, Bengals don't often have white feet. My cat is part Bengal, but we had that told to us by a couple of vets. We didn't even ask them, they just told us right up front, asked us where we got him. We got him from a pound, people out where I live throw out animals all the time, including expensive ones. If you got yours from a shelter, there is still a chance it has Bengal in it.

My cat Cecil is a Bengal mix and he looked a lot like that when he was a kitten. Yours may be part Bengal too.
Cecil's fur pattern at 9 weeks: It looks a lot like the one on your cat.

If this pic is representative, I could easily believe there must be some bengal Ancestry. Not nearer than a granddad, probably further away, but still, there should be an Ancestor. There are even som bulls-eye swirls on the behind...
But the other pics are more of a sweet, even handsome, but rather common tabby...

Hey guys I got a Kitten myself this tuesday and it's my first 'real' pet. Her name is Luna and she's 9 weeks.I believe she has "some" little inheritage from a bengal parent. And she does have longer backlegs. And my vet did say she may had an bengal ancestor. What kind breed do you think she is ? She's really cute and i love it when she jumps around when i play around with her.Btw I'm from Europe [emoji]128521[/emoji]
Gray mackerel and white tabby - or gray tigrered and white. No visible traces of bengal.
A little longer back legs is very common!
But. If I see her nose properly, she has a little creme there. No? I suspect she is diltued tortie, thus called for diluted torbie. With white.

I got this little girl & thought she might be part Bengal. The reason why I wondered that was her fur. It was more like a pelt, she feels like no other cat I've ever felt before & I've felt a lot of them! I contacted a local Bengal breeder & sent him pictures. He assured me she definitely had some of the breed in her, he was going off about head & ears & other stuff I didn't understand. He also mentioned the fur, that it will feel really thick & lush. She is the softest cat I've ever felt, she feels like a little stuffed animal.
Yeah, not impossible with a Ancestor. the spots arent good any longer, so at nearest a granddad, but fully possible.
And its spots on the side Im mostly looking on, not on the tummy...
Handsome guy!

Hi StefanZ,
Thank you for responding. We did not even spotted those bulls-eye swirls on his behind. Maybe his grand grand dad was a bengal we will never know. I just wanted some expert view on him to see if he might have bengal in him! THanks agian!

Wanting to know if lala this adorable kitten we found abanded in a creek is a tabby or bengal? Just curious we love her anyway =) thanks!!
She is adorable. I don't know if she's Bengal or not. She doesn't seem to have a marble type pattern, so I'm going with Domestic Shorthair Tabby. But, I'm not an expert.
Have fun with her.

I adopted a kitten from a lady, and he defiantely acts like a Bengal! He has the finger prints on his ears, long back legs, and is very big for his age. He doesn't meow, but he makes a whole bunch or chirps and noises that aren't your typical cat. He's also very active and loves to be WAY up high. Also, when playing with a mouse toy, he will always go and put it in his food dish. Thinking he might be a bulls eye marble Bengal. Any thoughts /opinions ?

Also forgot to mention that he's only 6 months so his pattern isn't completely defined yet
She definitely looks bengal. Beautiful marbling.
