If it is a force-choice question, I would say no. They require experienced and careful handling, especially if you don't want to eventually hating your savannah and serving them as a Christmas Roast. Please see my earlier comments. :D
I would love to own a Savannah cat one day. Right now though, it would be hard for me as I want to first get a domestic pet cat since I'm living on my own and have never raised a cat by myself. Once I have proved myself a responsible cat owner, then I would really like to look into getting a Savannah. Regardless of the high price, which determines the amount of wild blood in the cat, it is a beautiful animal nonetheless. Love you, Lyra!
@27Murasaki Thank you :) I suspect your future Savannah would like to have company anyway :D, might be an idea to adopt an adolescence or adult cat that grew up with other cats, so it would be more likely to accept the S. kitten in the future.
@pivotous as far as i understand, "tuxedo" describes a pattern of colouration, the animal itself could be of a number of breeds :D I will look forward to the videos! Don't forget to private message me so I don't miss it!!
@GintokisGirl95 I don't know... You can probably call your local animal control to find out. Ask them what hybrid animals are allowed. Each city, county, and state have different rules. In my county the only rule is that I am never to declaw her.
Aw... Join us in California for the sunshine and Savannah!!
All kidding aside, have you considered a Bengal cat? They are a very well established hybrid, and I have heard many success stories when people understand what they are getting into.
I am so sorry BrandyNicole92, for the late reply. For some reason I missed your comment's "approval" box!! I know for sure that Nebraska allowed them in 2008, since I got her then from there. As far as I know, they still allow the wonderful breeder we used is still operating, so I have no evidence that they had changed their policies. However, as I told GintokisGirl95, the easiest and safest way to find out is to contact your local animal control regarding this issue.
@joeyessoe I've been doing a lot of research and I really want a female kitten. I have one domestic cat who has been my "daughter" pretty much and she seems lonely. I think she would very much like a friend. =]
Lyra is F2, the 75% is Occicat. Savannah is really fun if you are ready for what you are getting into :) F6's should be a lot less trouble, hehee. What mix do you want to get?
The breeder I'm in contact with says mama is a melanistic..black with black spots. Daddy is an f5 gold color with large splotches... (babies are still cookn in mama :) ) Less trouble you say? xD
well... less trouble in terms of Savannah, LOL, since their behaviour would more closely resemble a "normal" cat--which is already a lot of trouble, LOL.
well... less trouble in terms of Savannah, LOL, since their behaviour would more closely resemble a "normal" cat--which is already a lot of trouble, LOL.
She steals sweaters and all thing wool, then sits on them and chews them into pulp and swallows them. She ate my favourite--probably because it had the additional attraction of smelling like mammy. So we monitor her when we entertain her with wool, so she doesn't eat hem and get sick ;)
Thats a weird habit, wonder if Lyra thinks she's a moth of sorts :p
Then again, Tifa, my siamese, does a bit of the same with her toys, the silly girl. Likes to chew on her toy mice in particular, specially those with catnip ofc. She tears them apart and eat them, albeit by the time she finishes wrecking and disemboweling their padded fibre interior she loses interest ^_^u
I adore siamese, I think my blue-eyed baby Oryon might be a Siamese Burmese mix. He is pretty entertaining, but not as much a crowd-pleaser like Lyra. He is way too smart for his own good, LOL. E.g. He can open deadbolts to let himself out for walks in a neightbourhood where Coyotes live. Oryon is really what made me think I am ready for a Savannah. hehhee.
Holy crap! Savannahs are AWESOME! But they are SOOOOOOO expensive. I'd love to have one since they aren't as fluffy as Maine Coons but still have the size, but heck I don't want to pay no $20K for one LOL
I got Lyra for less than $3,000 because she was a pet (instead of a "breeder", so she was spayed by the breeder), and was 11-week-old when I bought her. It worked out perfectly for me, as I don't plan to breed any pet, and I prefer kittens to be with their mothers longer anyway.
I had never bought a cat before (all my other pets are adopted), so that was quite a big deal for me on both the principle and monetary aspect. However, having her spayed made me feel better, hehee.
If you are interested in getting a Savannah, please send me a private message, and I can tell you more about the breed and my breeder. Savannahs are really quite a handful, just want to make sure you know what you are getting yourself into, lol. I am a animal trainer myself, so it was a good match, but they are not for everyone.
@joeyessoe It will likely be a long time before I could even consider getting one, but I would love to know more about how to acquire one should the opportunity arise and of course proper care information to determine if it's wise. There are lots of breeds I love but am not well-matched for. So I want to be sure I am educated before choosing a new companion.
I just died.
I want one so badly!
Give her a hug from me please!

HALOTHEMOVIE117 2 years ago
Unfortunately as a relatively new breed it is probably rather impossible to find one for adoption--I am assuming that's what you mean by free...
Most breeders and all rescue group discourage giving away any animals for free, as it encourages irresponsible animal handling.
