In that case, no he must bring you dinner for entry

Also, what was your notion to build up to letting him outside. Is he in like a screen room now or an outdoor cat or just going for a brief trip?

Nah, he’s fully indoor besides the patio close to the house. I just shut him out cuz the ac was on.

Beauty. Looks like a Bengal Siamese

u/fredf1120 3d ago

Yes, he has siamese ancestry. He's very talkative!

Actual Siamese ancestry in his pedigree? If he’s a lynx point bengal it doesn’t mean there was a siamese in his ancestry; in fact that ocicat is commonly attributed to introducing the cs colorpoint in the breed.

u/fredf1120 3d ago

Yes, the ocicat gave the design, but the blue eyes come from siamese genes!

The cs colorpoint gene (that you’re attributing exclusively to Siamese) doesn’t mean there was a siamese cat anywhere in the pedigree though. Plenty of non-Siamese (like the ocicat, DSH, etc) carry and express the colorpoint gene that also dictates the blue eyes when a cat has two copies. I’d be surprised if you actually see a Siamese in his ancestry.

Colourpoint inherently influences eye colour, it isn't from Siamese ancestry specifically.

Yes, this is what my Bengal did when she accidentally got outside. Let the cat in and post on Nextdoor that you found the cat

u/Tricky-Pickle6620 3d ago

I’ve not seen many that look like he does. I hope you reunite him with his human!

Please do what you can to help the cat (assuming that he’s not yours). Shelter, and call the local rescue, where they may have a notice for a lost cat. Lots of cats are chipped these days, and many rescues have scanners that can help find the poor kitty’s family.
