Awwww!  What a cutie!  Is that little "nick" in the ear what you were referring to?  If so, it looks perfectly normal to me.  If you're worried ask the breeder about it.

How old is she in that pic - she looks so small and cute!

There are a few people on here with bengals - Bengalbabe (Linda) has 3!  ;D

Personally I couldn't care less if he was a moggie/stray...but he seems to have split ears at the lower end of his ears.

Is that a problem?

No, the frilly bit at the base of the ear (bursa) is there to help the cat move its ears about freely. Comes as standard whether mog or ped.  ;)

Enjoy your new kit!  :Luv:

Hi Jules  :welcome: to Purrs.

Congrats to your partner on his pending furbaby :)

When you say split ears do you mean that pocket/flap thing near the base?  As far as I know all cats have that litle flap.  No idea what it does but probably something to do with the range of movement.

It's my woman/ partners cat/kitten.

Just a bit worried about his ears  :scared:

not quite sure what you mean but all/most cats have a bit on the edge of their ears (on the outside edge) that seems to split a wee bit..it has a proper name...something pockets (cant for the life of me remember the exact name)

could this be what you mean or does this kitten look as if it has had injured ears ?

Major newbie here  :hug:

My partner is shortly going to 'adopt/majorly love' a kitten....

He is quite a pedigree variety...and he wont be cheap.

Personally I couldn't care less if he was a moggie/stray...but he seems to have split ears at the lower end of his ears.

Is that a problem?

Thanks for advice in advance  :sneaky:
