This is her now. Her base color is slightly grey now and her spots don't stand out as much. I'm told she doesn't have much tarnish given that she's a moggie and her overall markings are good, she could just be a little more "silver."
As a wee babe (not nearly as defined as the Bengal coat... so my theory is that you will not be disappointed at all with how your silver turns out).

BTW, Nial... we need more kitten pics! I think you've been too busy posting Matrix pics.

You've neglected us!

They sure are beautiful... I can't wait to see them grow.

Oh how sweet!!!! Thanks for sharing your pictures with us. Those are just adorable! You're right- If your mixed Bengal can turn out that pretty, then mine should be ok.

They are not mixed Bengals

She's just a mixed breed silver spotted tabby that some silver breeders would love to produce that contrast.

Godiva was just showing you from baby to adult pictures.




And yes Godiva, I'll own a chocolate spotted and chocolate-silver spotted Ocicat

Hey Nial - just checked out the website and had a look at the rest of the litter, they seriously are gorgeous!!! Dutchess has such a beautiful face, and Maxwell looks like such a sweetheart! I swear he's smiling in his pic

Thanks both of you! I've got someone interested in him. He's a very nice looking boy, tarnish or not.

 

[leslie301]

I bet they have!!! Can't wait to see them!! Can we also get photos (either in another thread, or Fur Pics) of the rest of the litter? I just love baby Bengals...

As promised..................

The silver boys and their brown littermates.

Sterling He's a little behind the pack in terms of weight, but is catching up. He'll have some awesome eyes.

Morgan This boy is HUGE. Takes after his pop, Mr Jack.

Trey Also huge for his age, he can't shake that tarnish though.
His pattern is looking great now.

Dutchess We're probably going to keep this girl. I really like her giant eyes.

Maxwell This is big boy too and the lap cat of the bunch.

Dillon This kitten has awesome eye color for his age. I can't even imagine what his eyes will look like as an adult.

 

[catsarebetter]

awww! :: They're gorgeous.

 

[alice_curiouser]

Those cats are GORGEOUS. I would sell my mother for "little" Morgan.

Thanks Nial for the new pics! They are beautiful!

 

[goldenkitty45]

Wow - they HAVE changed - Dutches and Dillion almost look like the same eye color

- she does have big eyes - bigger then her brothers

 

[babyharley]

Wow.... they are all gorgeous!!

 

[white cat lover]

Oh I love Dillon's eyes!

 

[sarahp]

Awwww look at Trey's sweet face!!! I love his smile

And Sterling's face is gorgeous (in a manly way...).

I am already in love with Dutchess' eyes, they are bewitching! And Dillon's eye colour!!!!

You have some absolutely gorgeous kittens there Nial

It's amazing how much they've grown, I bet they're a lot of fun to watch now

How's Miss Spotty Paws going? She must be due soon? I know it's May sometime...

Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag with that question.

Miss Spotty Paws had her babies on April 16th. 4 silver spotted. Haven't done the gender check yet, but all the kittens are doing fine.

I mis-calculated the due date, much to my wife's annoyance

....

I need to consult her more closely in the future! She knows exactly when, who is going to give birth to whom and the date it's going to take place.

Anyway, they are here, healthy and I'll post pictures at some point. I don't see any tarnishing.........woooohooo!

P.S. Spotty is a natural at being a mom. She loves those babies and is proud of them.
