Hi not sure who my father was maybe main coon as i am large for a 2 yr old girl
Yeah, the father could easily be a maine coon, or at least, a maine coon look alike, with these looks.

But.   A longhair needs two longhair-carrying parents.   Both dad AND mom.  So mom couldnt be no purebred bengal.

But your  X was perhaps to hint a mix?

The question is what is meant by bengal mix.  A BENGAL for real as an surely known ancestor, or a "bengal", ie a nice tabby whom with Gods help had some spots on the tummy?

Anyway, whomever the ancestors are.   This is a nice cat, a nice fellow on that pic.  Just be proud!

Yes her mom has spots and short hair
Interesting pattern.  Its no typical spots, in any case no bengal spots - these are VERY distinctive.

But its either no typical broken mackerel!

Thus, I can easily imagine its bengal spots whom got detoriated.  A granddad perhaps - my guess is a father would leave better spots.

We know she was a longhair-gene carrier, so she herself couldnt in no way be a bengal, even of pet quality.  BUT she does seems very handsome, with nice colors too. Black and a real nice silver color, surely a part of her ancestry..
