After many years of breeding, showing
and racing horses, I decided to give this up after having

but then I come across the Bengal and Wow! What a cat.

personality, who could ask for more? I was hooked.

About Bengals
The
Bengal is a relatively new breed of cat, which was first bred
in the U.S.A and was originally created by crossing an Asian
Leopard Cat with a domestic cat. The domestic Bengal derives
its name from the Latin name of its wild ancestor, Felis Bengalensis
(Asian Leopard Cat). Whilst the domestic Bengal is similar
in appearance to the Asian Leopard cat, and its genetic makeup
contains a contribution from that wildcat species, its temperament
however is purely domestic.
The goal in developing the domestic
Bengal cat breed was to preserve a strong physical resemblance
to its beautiful wild ancestor and at the same time the new
domestic breed was designed to be a pleasant and trustworthy
family companion. Therefore, the conformation of the Bengal
is definitely reminiscent of its ancestors.
The Bengal is a large, sleek and very
muscular cat with its hindquarters slightly higher than its
shoulders with a thick tail that is carried low. The Bengal
should be alert and affectionate and its distinctive spotted
or marbled coat enhances its wild appearance. The different
coat patterns are either leopard spotted or marbled, on a
background colour of brown, or sometimes white.
There is no other breed of cat that
displays the gold or pearl dusting effect (glitter) of the
Bengal. Its pelt has a rich smooth feel of satin or silk.
Even the voice of the Bengal is different from that of other
domestic cats. They can coo and chirp, and like to jump and
somersault. They also love to play with water!
The Bengal is self-assured, affectionate and playful, with
the stunning looks of its wild ancestor.
