Choosing a Bengal Cat これは 猫です

Original playout date: 10 September 2007

A collection of fine thoroughbred Bengals. We decided in the end for Pushkin, the marbled brown four month kitten you see in the frame at 10:40, and reserved him, but I am still hoping for comments and advice from bengal cat cognoscenti.

Admittedly the original was on rollers and not a water channel with very light boats as this one has.
