Bengal
Cats
The origin of the Bengal Cats is an offspring and hybrid
of a domestic and a Asian Leopard Cat of Bengal (felis bengalis),
a savage cat (Oslo) from the South East Asia. The objective
is to create a race of an Oslo cat with stable and calm
characteristic. The idea is to eliminate by selective reproduction
of all the wild characteristic and produce only the good
characteristic of a good domestic cat. The first hybrid
implies the cats without pedigree, and the first Leopard
Cat which have spotty rosettes and they are the hybrid of
Mau Egyptian and Ocicat. Later the practice is accepted
by the breeders and the breeding of Bengal is become popular
across the world.
