The Bengal cat’s coat is what separates it from other domestic cat breeds. Their fur is incredibly soft it feels like rabbit fur. If you look closely, you'll see different bands of color down the length of the cat's hairs. Bengal cats typically weigh from eight to sixteen pounds, and they’re highly valued for their thick, short coats that are strikingly patterned and can come in various colors such as white, gray, and brown. Agouti (Ticked): Most tabby cats will have agouti hairs as part of their pattern.Spotted: The Ocicat and the American bobtail are good examples of spotted tabby patterns, although some moggies will also demonstrate this color pattern.They will have a darker color in spots running in two lines across their tummies (called "vest buttons"). Mackerel tabbies have striped rings around their tail and legs, a "necklace" of stripes on the front of their chests, and bands of solid or broken stripes running down the sides of their bodies. The Bengal cat is a domesticated cat breed created from a hybrid of the Asian leopard cat ( Prionailurus bengalensis ), with domestic cats, especially the spotted Egyptian Mau. Mackerel (striped): This is by far the most common pattern, so much so that some people think it should have received the title "classic" designation.Many American shorthair cats demonstrate this pattern. Tabby is a color marking, btw, not a breed in itself. He would be a mix though, so you can call him a brown spotted tabby Domestic Shorthair.

Classic: This pattern usually has whorls ending in a "target" on the side of the cat. Yes, he does appear to have some Bengal influence.
