Heartfelt Tabitha Chat of Ounce



Tabitha is an absolutely beautiful girl with a wild look and a mischievous nature that this Gemini could relate to.

Name
Heartfelt = her breeder's cattery name
Tabitha = witch from Bewitched
Chat = French translation of cat
of Ounce = our cattery name named after the majestic snow leopard (also known as "ounce")



Attributes
Tabitha is a silver spotted rosetted Bengal with green/gold eyes.  She is absolutely gorgeous with heavy whisker pads, full white around her eyes, a full chin and round nostrils.  She has a heavily muscled body with big feet.  Tabitha can jump from the floor to the top of her 5 foot cat tree!


Birthday
Tabitha was born on 5/11/2008 at Heartfelt Bengals (breeder Karron Taylor).  NOTE:  Karron is an absolute Godsend.  We are so lucky to have had her as our first breeder experience.  Karron, you ROCK!

Parents & Pedigree
Her mom/dam was Silvergene Softaz Silq of Heartfelt (SBT 053102 029) and dad/sire Spothaven Silvr Dream2 of Heartfelt (SBT 012605 034).

Purrrsonality
Her personality is exquisite.  She loves to play with the boys by either fetching with toy mice or by playing tag and chasing them around the house.  Although it looks more like stalking.  Her best friends are a Black Labrador Retriever named Onyx and Lucian (see Studs).  She loves water and often hops into the shower before my husband in the morning.  She is brilliant and at the same time stubborn.  She can hear the refrigerator door opening from upstairs even if the boys music is blaring. 

Health
Tabitha is microchipped and has received a clean bill of health from our local vet.  For her annual heart check (12/21/10), Tabitha had a cardiac auscultation test ("auscultation is within normal limits") and an echocardiography with doppler ("results were within limits of normal ").  The cardiologist reported a normal cardiovascular examination ("No evidence for HCM present at this time.").  See report here.

Awards
Tabitha entered the Silver Cat Club Five Star Feline Face Off:  Red, White and Blue Edition Mid-Pacific Regional Show on July 3 - 5.  Tabitha placed 1st/2nd division in every ring.  Tabitha is adjusting to being in a cage and on display -- something she really doesn't like.  One judge said, "You are TOO pretty to be this angry."  :)  

Due to the stress it places on her (and me), I have decided not to show Tabitha further.
