Hey all.

I thought the hard part of getting a new Bengal would be convincing the OH, however that part was relatively straight forward. I had my heart set on a brown rosetted boy, until I saw pictures of a litter of snow marbles >_< I'm now torn and was wondering whether any of you lovely people have pictures of adult snow marbles (or spotteds) you could share as I know the colour change can be drastic from when they are first born until they are a year or two. This is really difficult and any pictures/opinions are welcomed!

Thank you!

Lol I already have a silver spot. This is to keep her company as I've convinced the OH it is essential...

I personally love both! I think since you already have a spotted baby maybe get a marble so you have the best of both worlds. I personally love the snow mink marbles it doesnt take as long for their color come out as the SLP! Good luck and please send pictures!

Sorry yes SLP is seal lynx point. There are actually three different shades of snow. There is Seal lynx which is a lighter color with blue eyes, the mink is the middle color being darker than the SLP and has an aqua color eye and I believe they might have some different shades of eye color and then there is the seal sepia which is the darkest and hardest to find. I love the all of them but the seal lynx point is usually the most common and they always have baby blue eyes which are very pretty. I like the mink marble because there is more contrast between the white background and markings. The SlP is just as pretty is just takes a little longer to show their contrast. All are beautiful!!! Simply breath taking cats. That is my dream kitty but they are hard to come by where I live. I have found one in the last year and he was VERY expensive.

you should be choosing not by colour but by personality to suit your other bengal needs
Thats the main reason you are getting second bengal ,right?

She will be 7 months tomorrow. If I get another, I wanted to try and keep the age gap as small as possible. I'm looking for an inquisitive, but not dominant male ideally.
