Charlottechicken Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 can you find out what he is please? I love those cats! It looks like the Beast of Bodmin Moor to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 Can't Laura - the site is all in Polish or something But I would say almost 100% that he is a Bengal. There are also some pictures of him sharing a bath with his owner, & Bengals love the water My Chilli is half Bengal & has a similar look, if not on the same scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Cute Chilli Is he still awandering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 There are also some pictures of him sharing a bath with his owner, & Bengals love the water Thank you for sparing us from those Cinnamon. There is something a bit disconcerting about his nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susanbb Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 That is one gorgeous cat Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 That's not a domestic cat. Look at his rounded ears. I think he's gorgeous, but is almost certainly an asian leopard cat, who are the origin of the bengal. They're not normally all that tame.

Fabergé Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Whatever it is, it's beautiful! And I want one! Although my 2 rescue cats would have a fit! They're terrified of their own shadows I wonder if that cat is any good at scaring foxes away.....? Gloria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omletina Kyckling Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I agree with Aunty e - that doesn't look like a domestic cat - the nose isn't right and the ears also. My boys are also half bengal and they are more "domestic looking" than that but you can see where the markings come from. That is one big kitty! I'd hate to see the cat flap he'd need!

Cinnamon Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 That is one big kitty! I'd hate to see the cat flap he'd need! I would hate to see what is produced after he has used the cat flap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I have a cat who's mostly norwegian forest. He weighs a stone and a half. I have specifically set up my litter tray so that he can't get into it and has to go outdoors. He could smell out the house for DAYS with one, enormous poo. Somewhere there's a picture of me holding him and giggling because he's so huge. His cat box has wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I have a cat who's mostly norwegian forest. He weighs a stone and a half. ... His cat box has wheels. I should think you'd need a pram for a cat that size! I agree - the one above, though gorgeous, is not a domestic cat - that head is a give-away. Cute - but imagine that landing on the bed at 4.00 am ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I have 2 full bengal cats and its not a bengal but it is most certainly an asian leopard cat - not really a domestic moggy at all and they do form the foundation of the bengal cats as the other poster said. Beautiful cat though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 and just imagine what a cat that size could bring in through the catflap and leave on your bed at 0400am in the morning! Joe said it would bring other domestic cat's instead of a mouse, too small fry for it! Oooooerrrr A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 Yep, I agree its not domestic,although thats what the story said. Domesticated maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabergé Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I'd be quite happy if it brought the head of next-doors cat in. It's a vicious brute, especially considering it's a neutered female. It's forever beating up my poor cats Gloria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellekatz Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 Hes a bit big for an Asian leopard cat, they are actually more like our domestic cat size - he looks like a fishing cat to me See here http://www.nitewindes.com/ALCinfo.html My Bengal Maya is actually the smallest of all my cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 My bengal is dinky too, although not at the moment given she's eight weeks pregnant. But she's not as dinky as my doll-faced persian, who was very sickly as a kittten, and only weighs 1.5kg at nine months old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FORENSICA Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 what a massive cat! As you say, it must be something wild-ish I reckon. I actually went today to a cat show and didn't see anything like that there Cinnamon, send the link to the page, I could understand it if it is in Eastern European language Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
