The Seal Mink:

Often exhibiting beautiful aqua colored eyes, the mink can also have green eyes.
The background color will be ivory, cream or light tan and markings will be various shades of seal mink to dark seal mink.

Genetically, the seal mink Bengal is cb, cs. This means that it has inherited one copy of  the Siamese (cs) gene and one copy of the Burmese (cb) gene.

 

 

 

SLP's have the lightest background color of the snows with patterns that range from brownish grey to tan or buff.
Their lovely blue eyes make them quite outstanding.
Most SLP's are born pure white, although sometimes there is a shading of color.

  Genetically, the Seal Lynx is "cs,cs" which means that it has two copies of the Siamese albino gene.

The Seal Lynx point emerged as a natural result of early Bengal breeding, when many cats were used to create the filial generation, and the recessive Siamese gene remained.

Meet ,Captiva the  newest addition to Dreampaws. .  She is a Seal Lynn Point rosetted Bengal and has beautiful blue eyes.  She is beginning to rosette and has a nice flow to her pattern.  She has well placed ears, nice profile, long body length, nice tail, and huge whisker pads.  Her pattern will continue to develop as she gets older.  I can't thank my good friend Garrett Orgonista of Goldnglitter enough for entrusting me with this little purrl.  She is truly beautiful and I can't wait to see what she will produce.

Below are update photos of Captiva at her new home with us.

The "snow" gene is recessive.

The breeding pair must BOTH carry the gene in order to produce a "snow" kitten. Because body and eye color can be so similar in the three snow varieties, it can, at times, be very difficult to tell one from the other simply by what traits the cat exhibits (phenotype).
Many breeders are now having their cats DNA tested
(a simple and inexpensive swab test) to determine genotype.
This  will positively identify which type of snow Bengal they have.
