Beauty of the Bengal

Bengals are the only domestic cat with rosettes that resemble the markings on leopards, jaguars and ocelots. Bengal Cats are curious and confident with the tameness of a domestic tabby and the beauty of an Asian Leopard Cat. The first crossbreed was performed by Jean Mill in 1963, but the hybrid wasn’t perfected until the mid-1980s. Today, Bengals are bred only with each other.
