Bengal Q

Tiff,

Here's the link regarding the tabby/siamese I was talking about. Its the 5th paragraph after the heading "About the Colors". It talks about how the ocicat color genetics are gotten, etc.

Yes we will be getting a chocolate spotted - hopefully a "hot" one; she's sending us pictures soon

The classic tabby was used from the silver ASH to bring in the silver gene for the colors. The ASH is not used any more, but the classic tabby gene is still in the pool

Thanks for the link!

Can't wait to see picks of your new kitty.

Will you be showing him/her?

The silver ASH was used to bring silver into the bengal breed as well.

No, he's a pet. I got spoiled with all the close shows on the east coast. I can't see driving 3-4 or more hrs for shows around here (in MN) - not worth time/energy/money unless you know you have a cat that will win.

With Spooky (my rex) I knew he'd final in almost every ring
