Bengals question

[rosethecopycat]

Can the breed Bengal have blue eyes?

[Russian Blue]

This website says the Snow Bengals will have blue, but the Classic Bengals should not have blue eyes.

Here is a photo of a Bengal that I met on vacation.

He had blue-green eyes, kind of a sea green.
I think that Sasvermont's cat Ti had greenish gold eyes.

Maybe this website will help you find out.:)

Yes the lynx and snow ones will, however the regular tawny/brown beauties will have eyes like my kitters do, which are a very beautiful orangish/greenish color. :)

I am owned by three Bengals and one Bengal mix, all related. :D

I also run a Bengal rescue, but we have yet to have even one Bengal this year! However there is a lady in Seattle that may need to rehome a retired queen, so we will see. :)

Thanks!

The reason I asked was:

I saw a lady at the Vet who had a goreous kitty with stunning blue eyes, that I would swear up and down it was a Lynx Point Siamese.
She said it is a Bengal, and she's breeding her.

I hoped she hadn't been gyped by someone telling her this blue eyed cat was a bengal!

What you saw was a Seal Lynx Point Bengal. They are supposed to be blue eyed, and they can look like a siamese. However, they are spotted but the spots are very light and sometimes do not come into full color until 2 years or so. However, to the untrained eye, a seal lynx would look like a siamese, but a breeder can tell them a mile away. The difference is in the boning. A bengal will have heavier bone set, more muscle and thicker in general. A siamese would be thinner and slinky. A bengal would have more rounded ears, low set to the head and a strong chin and shorter tail that a siamese with pointy ears, high ears and longer tail. Hope that helps!!

SANDY FROST, I have always thought our Bengal cats resembled eachother, although Cheetah has more of the light brown coloring I find pretty. Here are some pics of my Bengal brood! :D

Jessica,

I am also involved in Bengal and exotic animal rescue. I currently run Bengals and Buddies Exotic Animal Rescue in Eugene Oregon and will be adding another foster Bengal to our crew shortly, who will hopefully find a new loving permanet home soon.

I see that you are a breeder. I would love to see kitten pics! I just adore looking at the Bengal faces. :)


Another pic........Cheetah and Mystics momma, Houdini.
