Usually the Bengal breeders don't like having longhaired cubs in their litters, but in Europe they now have an own standard and are bred by some breeders. They are named Pardino in Europe. Look at this cuties:

I think all cats are special and generally find something to love about each and everyone. My preference has been Maine Coons and domestic Tabbys. Having just been adopted by a Bengal Mix, my experience is about to be broadened!!

Thanks for posting pictures of some of the various breeds - they are absolutely beautiful. I've never seen a Cashmere - so cute.

I have a cat that we got 2 years ago from a humane society. He is now 3 years old and we don't know what breed he is. He is mostly grey with dark grey stripes, he has white on all 4 paws, his belly and on his nose. He has medium length hair. He is very friendly and affectionate. He weighs about 16 pounds. I have attached my website that has some pictures of him. His name is Chaz. I was looking at cat breeds and I found a silver classic tabby and white Maine Coon that looked a lot like him.
