Just that your friend has a beautiful classic tabby tabby domestic shorthair!Got another photo of it, does this mean anything?
He's a lovely cat!Our boy was sold to us advertised as a Bengal cross and with the vet certificate confirming this. After seeing this thread I am now thinking he is actually a tabby looking at his picture it seems he has a sort'a bullseye? What do people think?
Looking back through the papers now it is infact on the Record of Vaccination from the vet of the seller that it states "Breed - Bengal Cross" So there is no "official" certificate, birth or otherwise that states his breed in our possesion.He's a lovely cat!
He does seem to have a typical classic tabby pattern with bullseye. Without more information about his ancestry, I would describe him as a brown classic tabby domestic shorthair.
When you say that the vet certificate confirmed that he is a Bengal cross, do you mean the vet wrote "Bengal cross" on his health certificate?
Vets can't determine a cat's breed, they generally just write whatever the owner tells them. Probably the seller told them he was a "Bengal cross" and that's what the vet wrote down.Looking back through the papers now it is infact on the Record of Vaccination from the vet of the seller that it states "Breed - Bengal Cross" So there is no "official" certificate, birth or otherwise that states his breed in our possesion.
He was advertised as a Bengal cross but we bought him soley on the fact that he is mega handsome and purred the moment he laid eyes on us.
A marble pattern and a rosetted Bengal can’t have a mackerel pattern kitten — mackerel pattern is dominant over classic/marbled, and a Bengal needs to be genetically marbled to have rosettes. You were lied to, sadly. The kitten is most likely a DSH black mackerel tabby of no particular breed.Good afternoon, I bought this puppy as the daughter of a Benga and a Marble....can anyone tell me if it is really possible? I think they are more spotted than a descendant of some of these.
Um padrão de mármore e um Bengal com roseta não podem ter um gatinho com padrão de cavala - o padrão de cavala é dominante sobre o clássico/marmoreado, e um Bengal precisa ser geneticamente marmoreado para ter rosetas. Você foi enganado, infelizmente. O gatinho é provavelmente um gato malhado de cavala preta DSH de nenhuma raça específica.

Which one is which? A couple of pics are for sure some sort of bengal, but some seems to be a domestic tabby... Are the first pics your new kitten, and later on the parent??Good afternoon, I bought this puppy as the daughter of a Benga and a Marble....can anyone tell me if it is really possible?

Your kitten looks like a dlh mackerel brown tabby, what a cutie she may have some forest cat ancestry. She does not look bengal to me. The other three cats look like bengals. A rosetted and a marbled.Good afternoon, I bought this puppy as the daughter of a Benga and a Marble....can anyone tell me if it is really possible?
