Cashmere Bengals

We found out in 2018 we had some cats with the long hair gene. I never bothered to test for long hair because honestly I knew nothing about the Cashmere Bengal. I never really heard of them, and have never seen one in person before. The first born here was in 2018.

When she was a kitten I thought she was just in that awful Bengal fuzzy stage but for a longer time than usual. I had offered her to a repeat client who wanted yet a different looking Bengal than she already had. This would be her 4th PoolsideCat. A deposit was placed on her. Only after the deposit did I realize she was a long hair cat. Was I so disappointed I had taken a deposit on her, you betcha! But I am a lady of my word, she was going to live with a client and have a Seal Mink Bengal, a Silver Bengal & a Brown Bengal sibling. I hope I don’t regret that. 

Our first Cashmere Bengal was named Roses by her pet parents. Roses is a Sepia rosette long hair beauty. Sepia is the darkest of the snow Bengal cat. Her coat is silky soft and puffy. She has such a thick fluffy tail too. 

So what is a Cashmere Bengal anyway?

Cashmere Bengals are a gorgeous version of the Bengal cat. Our Cashmere Bengals have a medium body hair length which is even softer than the traditional Bengal. They have a fluffy tail with that wonderful Bengal pattern. 

 

People think the pattern gets lost in the longer hair, but that is not true for ours. Ours have that great BOLD Bengal pattern that stands out. I waited a long time to find large patterned cats that can produce the large pattern our clients ask for. 

Cashmere Bengals like Bengals shed very little, with the correct diet that will not shed at all. Although they love to be brushed it is not needed. 

Cashmere Bengal cats with bold patterns are rare.

I have some beautiful Cashmeres here at PoolsideCats. Ours are rosetted, coming in brown the traditional color and Seal Sepia (snow).
