ABOUT BENGALS

Bengal cats are a hybrid breed developed over several generations through a program of selectively crossbreeding domestic cats, possessing desired features, with Asian Leopard Cats (ALC) and ALC hybrids. The principle of hybrid vigor dictates that hybrid cats are often healthier and larger than either parent. The first three generation males are almost always infertile, though there have been the occasional, but rare F3 studs capable of reproduction. The early generation females are typically fertile, and responsible for continuing the genetic contributions of the ALC to the next generation. (Sourced from Wikipedia - to see the rest of this wiki click here).

The Bengal gets its name from the scientific name of the ALC - Felis bengalensis.

According to TICA, the goal of the Bengal breeding program is to create a domestic cat which has the physical features distinctive to the small forest-dwelling wild cats, and with the loving, dependable temperament of the domestic cat. The Bengal should visibly appear different from other domestic breeds.
