"Bengals are medium sized cats - a male may weigh as much as 20 lb (9 kg), and a female
commonly weighs 7 to 12 lb (4 to 6 kg.) Male cats are generally larger than females.
Bengal cats are either spotted or have marbled coat patterns. Spots with at least two colors present (rosettes) are
particularly desirable. The following colors and patterns are recognized and eligible for competition: Brown Spotted
Tabby, Brown Marbled Tabby, Seal Sepia Spotted Tabby, Seal Sepia Marbled Tabby, Seal Mink Spotted Tabby, Seal Mink
Marbled Tabby, Seal Spotted Lynx Point and Seal Marbled Lynx Point. Silver was also recently accepted as a color
variation eligible for championship status. Blue and Melanistic (black) are additional colors that occur, but are not
yet recognized by most associations that accept the Bengal breed."
