Hi Sonya, no this is not the breeder my boys came from - I heard about this one through a contact who frequents the TICA cat shows. The boys breeder is a dear friend of mine who only has 2 queens. Nova will be coming from the famous (well up here anyway) Gayzette.

Some of the bengals on the breeders pages on the web are stunning though

Linda , is that the breeder you bought your boys and Nova from? Wow they are stunning cats on that site, im loving the silver ones

I'm loving Lenny though, I just want to tickle his tummy.

You want a tum to tickle? how about this one.

oooh! they are both so gorgeous

hang on a min.....

Nope, a lucky escape, Missy Fearne says I can't come and catnap those two as she likes being an only cat

i didnt realise gccf only recognise the browns.

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #98 on:** November 19, 2006, 21:04:49 PM »

ACtually, I think I prefer silvers to snow's. Some of those are stunning, and I do prefer them over the blues.

Linda (Bengalbabe) · « **Reply #97 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:58:18 PM »

Nova's sire is a fantastic silver boy - he is a canadian import (silver spotted) and has the most fantastic pelt ever!!! His silver male kittens are taking TICA by storm just now. Nova can only be registered and shown at TICA as a result (GCCF only recognise brown marble and spotted bengals for now but its likely to change with more colours becoming very popular)

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #96 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:52:59 PM »

just had a look, impressive place they have but i think i'd still go for a snow or silver, i did however forget to say on my previous post that it was a blue eyes snow i'd fancy.

(of course now that there is a resident laperm it wont become reality LOL)

Yeah - snows and silvers are becoming easier to get, certainly south of the border. still not many here. If I rember correctly purebliss bengals was the name of the cattery with the blues and the golden spotted.

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #93 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:44:39 PM »

oh never heard of a blue one linda !

have to say i'd love a snow marble myself but they are quite sought after i think so harder to get.

did you see any at gayzette, i'm sure they had some snows.

Linda (Bengalbabe) · « **Reply #92 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:41:44 PM »

At the last big TICA show someone had Blue Bengals..............Not seen them in the skin myself. You also now get what they are call golden spotted!!! Silvers are cool too.

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #91 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:24:13 PM »

yep blue cats are fab
however lots of owners who have em need to be abit more original when choosing a name

you wouldnt believe (actually you prob would) how many smokeys i have met LOL

Beth (Mouse's Mum) · « **Reply #90 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:23:53 PM »

Once i'm a full member i will post some pics, but for now i'll just say my favourite is black and white, only cos my first furbabe was black and white and he was gorgeous, now i have a tabby, which is coming close to my fave now

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #89 on:** November 19, 2006, 20:19:24 PM »

I have to admit to preferring spotted Bengals over marbled, and I think I prefer the snow's to the browns. I actually only have one of the 3 colours I picked as my favourite - I might own a black and white but they aren't my favourite colour!! I would love to own a blue though.

Mandi · « **Reply #88 on:** November 19, 2006, 19:59:25 PM »

Oooooooooooooo there all gorgeous....I love Bengals...think I will have to be very nice to OH ive just decided what I want for Xmas

Beautiful picture Gail - is this Zak?? If so he really does remind me of Lubo in that pic (very similar coat and colouring)

No that's Zubin.

This is Zaki Pooh

No, in reply to the question about the 'marble' coat pattern of the bengal, the Cat Fancy are not just trying to be different, there is no other pattern in the domestic cat world like the marbling on a bengal.? It is truly unique.?

Ahh right ok just Bilbo's dad's markings are the same as Lenny's (just obviously a longer coat) which is why I was wondering.

Linda (Bengalbabe) · « **Reply #77 on:** November 19, 2006, 17:19:04 PM »

Hey Gail, yes Lenny has enormous feet (even now at 8 months) - he is going to be a 'very big' boy (LOL). Interestingly Lenny is also a bit of a mummy's boy but likes nothing better than a good scrap with his brothers (he's a wee bully!)

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #76 on:** November 19, 2006, 17:17:52 PM »

No he is a big cat, Workmen who come to the house comment on how big he is. But he is REAL Mummy's boy., and I love it.

sonya · « **Reply #75 on:** November 19, 2006, 17:15:08 PM »

cor Gail , Zubin looks huge or is it just the way the photos been taken,,totally gorgeous by the way

Gail Bengal Slave · « **Reply #74 on:** November 19, 2006, 17:13:59 PM »

Blimey he has HUGE feet. Zubin will be 3 in Feb.

Linda (Bengalbabe) · « **Reply #73 on:** November 19, 2006, 17:09:53 PM »

Hey Gail - Zubin is truly handsome. My fave pics of Lenny (he's around 4 months in this one)

Here my marbel boy Zubin in the garden.

Linda (Bengalbabe) · « **Reply #71 on:** November 19, 2006, 16:53:13 PM »

Yip - just spoke to Nova's breeder and she confirmed as per Roz. Lenny does have some fantastic markings on him, particularly down his spine (almost a cross type thing running from the top of his shoulders down - shall try to photograph but not easy!) I can see the similarity of the bengal (overall) to the tabby though.

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #70 on:** November 19, 2006, 16:48:26 PM »

thanks for that roz, i thought it was quite different to classic tabby markings and does take on more of a "marbling" effect (funnily enough

)

Hey Lottie, I too think of the tabbies as being closest to bengals (hence I voted them no1 faves). ?Not sure about marble (which Lenny is). ?I did hear him described as a clouded leopard once though by his breeder. ?I shall try to find out (could be just want to be different!)

Bilbo's dad's markings are identical to Lenny's and he's a black classic tabby (also called blotched tabby) and Bilbo's auntie is a tortie spotted tabby ?
