Thanks for the info and Sunama you made it very easy for my one brain cell

Experience or no, I would do anything to just much on Kaiser's belly

Scumptious little boy. Bengly Palace is heaven, I must find a way to go visit so I can munch on all these times and come home with Lenny

Yep, thats right, and most cat registries wont let you show anything earlier than F4, whic is classed as domestic. not sure if you need a licence, but anything earlier than F4 isn't recommended unless you have experience, although I can't fully remember why. They are featured in thsi months Your Cat magazine.

Please Ruth can you explain these to me again cos have forgotten what they mean.......sigh

So, in summary,

F1: parent was an Asian Leopard Cat
F2: grand parent was an Asian Leopard Cat
F3: great grand parent was an Asian Leopard Cat

...and so on.

Obviously the lower the F number, the closer the cat will be (genetically) to its wild ancestor (Asian Leopard Cat for Bengal, Serval for Savannah). The F1s are generally larger than SBTs.

At F5 level (SBT) the cat is classed as fully domestic.

Do you need a license to own a F1, in the UK?

Foundation 1 (right Linds?) Kaiser's father is an Asian Leopard Cat and his mother would have been a later generation bengal. So Kaiser lad is a first generation offspring of the ALC. Minerva is the offspring of a F1 bengal (like Kaiser) and another later generation bengal so a Foundation 2 (hopefully Linda can confirm).

You can see the features so clearly. Kaiser has so many similar features to his daddy

Kaiser looks just like an Asian Leapord Cat.

That's because Kaiser is an F1, his father is an ALC and Minerva is an F2

Aaaaah. Now that makes sense.

Do you have any other pics of him. They would be great to see.

Thanks.

I'll post you a big jiffy bag later Linda so you can send the gorgeous Minerva, Kaiser, Dite and Rainbow up to me

The photoshop images are absolutely amazing and really show off Kaiser and Minerva beautifully. I simply love the one with Kaiser's beautiful head faded into the background
