Just recently rehomed the most beautiful 1 year old kitty. Honestly so happy with him. The owner told me he is a bengal cross as she has had plenty of bengal cross from this breeder and went to her home and she had cats with rosettes that where so striking I knew they was bengal somehow... she also had russian blues so I knew she was into her cats.. anyway it doesn't bother me if he isn't bengal. But he is so different to any other cat I've owned his back legs are huge he has rosettes and stripes. Personally I think he is a tabby but what do you think?? Just out of curiosity I want to know.

Your kitties are beautiful. I honestly am not seeing any bengal in your kitty. There are spotted tabbies and bengals have zero white on them and the hind legs are definitely not bengal. Bengal legs are slender and long. Maybe some where way down the line, there may have been a bengal. So many try to pass off a cat as having some bengal because it makes the cat sound more valuable. There is really no way of knowing unless you have a DNA test done or there is a registered pedigree. A bengal, after all, is just a cat, too.

If you were to frame (aka "shoot") a picture such that it showed only the upper half of him (minus all the white etc)... that's kind of a dead-ringer for my purebred bengal Gaga. A very attractive spotted pattern with beautiful looking fur. But of course that pattern is in no way specific to bengals either (because bengals themselves are crosses)... so *shrug*.
