Chalk Mountain's King Jagger
Registered Name: TICA Registration Coming Soon
We are so excited to add Jagger to our Cattery
Personality
Jagger is quickly becoming a family favorite.
Medical
I fully expect Jagger to get the Vet's full seal of approval, but we haven't finished his testing just yet. To do his hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) screening he needs to be a year old, so we're still waiting. Our screenings are done by a licensed Cat Cardiologist. Once his testng is finished you can see it on our website under the documents page. Documentation of our fully health tested Bengal Cattery. We go the extra mile and HCM scan our Bengal cats to make sure we're breeding the best possible Bengal kittens we can. Most Bengal breeders don't do the testing because it's expensive, check out our info on Bengal breeder health testing.
In the next few weeks we should get his DNA testing panel back. The Wisdom Panel is the world's most comprehensive cat DNA test and is developed by leading geneticists and veterinarians. Along with insuring that our Spooky cat is 100% Bengal breed, it also screens for 45+ health tests, 25+ trait tests, and blood type. Proof of testing can be provided to you if requested. All of our cats are negative for PK-Def, PRA, and any other genetic disease that the Wisdom Panel tests for. Bengal cat DNA testing documentation from our Bengal Cattery
DNA Traits
We will know for sure in a few weeks but I expect that Jagger will have APB which is part of the genetics needed for a Charcoal Bengal.
Like many of the Bengals in our breeding program, I expect Jagger has the Glitter Gene. This is gene literally makes our Bengal kittens glitter in the sunlight. All about Bengal kitten glitter genetics
