REGISTRATION OF BENGALS
Bengal cats can be registered in several organizations. In
The International Cat Association the Bengal cat is the fourth generation of
like breeding, or studbook (SBT). The cats that are not studbook (SBT) are
referred to as foundation cats for the Bengal cat. They are not actually Bengal
cats but are the foundation of the Bengal cat.
In the American Cat Fanciers Association, the Bengal cat is
the fifth generation of like breeding. In United Feline Organization and most
other organizations around the world it is the fourth generation and beyond.

THE REGISTRATION NUMBERS
can be very confusing. The first three
letters/numbers
 |
(1) identify generation and out-crossing, |
 |
(2) the six digit number indicates birth date, |
 |
(3) the number of cats registered on that date. |
(1)_ _ _ (2)_ _ _ _ _ _ (3)_ _ _ TICA registration number
(1) The first position of the three first letters/numbers, indicates out-crossing.
 |
A=son/daughter of two different
registered breeds |
 |
B=grandchild |
 |
C=great grand child |
 |
S=four generations and beyond of same breed breeding. |
 |
O=unknown parentage or
unregistered parentage |
(2) The second position is a number
 |
0,1,2, or 3 indicate
generation removed from unregistered parent. This could be non-domestic or unregistered domestic. |
 |
O in this second position indicates a known
registered outcross. |
(3) In the Foundation Registry, this third letter indicates
specific things.
 |
N= Non permissible outcross. A parent, grandparent
or great grandparent was of a breed not permitted by the breed
section. |
 |
P= Permissible outcross. A parent, grandparent or
great grandparent was a Bengal or a Foundation cat permitted as an outcross,
in the Bengal cat there are no permissible out-crosses. |
 |
S= A parent, grandparent or great grandparent was a
non-domestic cat. In the Bengal, an Asian leopard cat. |
| This chart
represents the possible combinations
when cats in the
same breed section are bred
together.
Find the sire number across the top
and the female number across the side
REMEMBER
SAME BREED
*Asian leopard cat and other non-domestics are registered as OOT(S)...
treated as a separate breed so not on the same breed chart since
non-domestic cats can proceed no further than OOT(S).

| This chart represents the registration code
of the offspring when cats in different breed
sections are bred together.
Find the sire number across the top and the female number across the
side. Then look across and down for the intersection.
Asian leopard cat and other nondomestics are registered as OOT (OOS)...
treated as a separate breed in and of themselves. Cannot advance past
OOT (S). OOT(S) TO OOT(S) is not registered in TICA. |
