This is our new beast. I named him Thorin. He is a Bengal cat or more commonly know as a Leopard Cat. The breeder we got him from was one of the originators of the breed. She also wrote the standards for the breed and started the Serengeti line of Bengals. She is an amazing woman. This little guy was exactly what she had in mind when writing the standards. He is the perfect embodyment of Bengals. She had him sold for $7,000 with a waiting list. That is until she found out he had a heart murmur. After several cardiac ultrasounds it was determined that he has mitral valve regurg. So she refunded the money to the buyers and refused to sell him. She doesn't want to taint her reputation or her lineage. So long story short, she allowed us to adopt him for free with the promise to never breed him and get him fixed. She knows about my extensive cardiac background and we were a perfect fit for his needs. Plus he's just so damn kewl.
