Hi all,
Since I got my kitten I’ve been wondering if she may be part bengal or something else?

Ive had 2 cats of my own and several others in my family but there is something ‘different’ about her..

I started wondering because of her face shape, ears, markings and athletic/long looking back legs, the way she moves, which seemed different to my other cats. She has large paws with very defined toes.
She talks/trills at me a lot and will shout at me for food, tap me on the leg if I’m not paying attention (or climb me) and really listens- she seems very intelligent.
She is obsessed with the bathroom and sits in the basin/when we bath looking at the water or paws at her water to drink from paws.
Sits on her back legs a lot/sits up/stands at length.
LOVES belly rubs, my other cats hated it!

I know you can teach cats tricks, as my cat that passed away recently did lots and she was a DSH.. but something seems diff here.
Her favourite game is fetch, she will play for ages!
What do you think- here are some photos of her and her mum, who was called ‘tabby/tortie’ by the shelter volunteers.

It doesnt matter if she is or isn’t!! I’m just curious to hear your opinions!

What a sweetie, and I'm so glad you have each other!!
I don't have any strong thoughts about her genetics, but I think you hit the jackpot for a super smart kitty!!

Mum does have an interesting appearance, you're right but I couldn't make a good guess, maybe a pointed cat or two was in her ancestry?
