Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this...but how do I know if me cat is a DSH or a Bengal? I know that sounds weird, but...
I was thinking about Bengals from Lil_Red's posts (she's getting a Bengal kitten) and I've always thought they were a neat sounding breed. So I looked them up and my cat looks just like that! He's a feral that I got at 5 weeks old (him, not me :tounge2: ) and now he's 7 months old and HUGE!
Also, he is a grey/brown tabby with beautifully wild markings and a funny striped tail that look just like the pics I saw on the Bengal site. And he has the gold underfur like they mention, and when I looked at him compared to a DSH breed pic and a Bengal breed pic, he looked more like the latter.
Is there some special way to tell? Maybe his mom was one, and dad the other? Either way, he's a doll, well, a wild and crazy doll, but a doll all the same.
Any advice, comments, suggestions, whatever?
I'll try and post a good pic of him tomorrow, but I haven't been able to get any pics to work on this site so far.
