This girl reminds me more of a pure Asian Leopard Cat
then an F1. Born frosted, she wasn't the most exciting newborn
to look at, but WOW how she has blown off that frosting to
reveal a fur quality that will just blow you away! She
has a stunning clear, glittered (yes, I said glittered
F1!), and colorful coat with intense black
markings clear down to the skin everywhere for a very high
contrast look. And I simply cannot say enough about her wild
head, structure, movement, and voice. Pictures do not begin to convey the beauty and wild essence of this animal. And as if
her amazing looks weren't enough, she is exaggeratedly
affectionate! She jumps excitedly into my arms when I call her
just so she can wrap her arms around my neck to hug me, and
kiss my face. I would like to thank my friend, Julie
Calderon of Callista Bengals, for
sending me this one of a kind girl back out of our homebred
Patience. You have really done an incredible job socializing
Shimmer!
