The Bengal and the water goes together 

      Sometimes, there would appear in some of the litters white kittens, with blue eyes, that would develop varying degrees of spotting as they grow older. This was the first type of Snow Bengal and is known as the “Seal lynxpoint Snow Bengal”. This type of  Snow Bengal has the Siamese genepool; hence the blue eyes and talkative, social nature.  
 


     About a decade later, in the late 1980’s, two Bengal breeders, Gene Johnson and Bob Dundon began breeding for a different type of Snow Bengal, introducing the Burmese domestic cat genepool, and thus began the “seal mink snows” and the “seal sepia snows”.



    A “seal mink snow” Bengal is usually a green-eyed snow Bengal, born light beige in color, with the markings developing to be a medium brown color.  
      

     A “seal sepia snow” Bengal is usually gold to green eyed, and born medium to dark brown in color, with the markings developing to be even darker.  

    The Snow Bengals of all these types can be spotted or marbled in pattern.
