Walk a Savannah cat - a dog in cat's body

Imagine a dog in cat's body.
First appeared in the 1980s, Savannah cat is the crossbreed offspring of a domestic cat and the medium sized, large eared wild African cats. They have became very popular near the end of the 20th century and have been registered as an all new breed. While being the largest domestic cats in the world with only about 5000 of them around the world in 2008, Savannah cats are much more social than typical domestic cats, and their loyalty are often compared to the dogs. With their long legs, and the unusual energetic nature, you can walk them like dogs and even teach them to play fetch.

Look at the size of the Savannah cats. Are we looking at a cat or a leopard? lol







Look at these "leopards" go.


If a picture is worth 1000 words, then a video would be worth 10,000 words! (videos of Savannah cats)

Hey, I have just decided, my favorite cat is Savannah cat now.
If you like dogs' personality, and the cats' look, you can get an all-in-one package deal with a Savannah cat.

They all say cats hate water. Now we have an exception.

I don't know about everyone else, but I want a Savannah cat now.

I saw someone here a few years back on a beach with their Savannah playing in the water. And their size can vary a bit. I don't think their ever small, but all of the videos in that first post are almost definitely F1s. Meaning first generations, serval x DSH. the F2s, F3s, etc can be bred in different ways, back again to another DSH, to another F1, so on and so forth, producing smaller options sometimes. I actually prefer the F1s.

Not that I've done much research on this or ever considered getting one...

I guess F1s are bigger, with longer legs. Easier to walk them. I heard F1s goes for tens thousands of dollars each. The demand for these Savannah cats are high while there are so few of them.

There are definitely breeders selling for a good deal less than that. Your not going to get one for $50 either though. The f1's do tend to be the biggest and most expensive. But those guys don't even neccesarilly have a cattery to produce those, you have to have african servals. I'm sure they can be tame, but that is very, very far removed from a fat house cat sleeping on the sofa.

If I ever get one Savannah cat, it will be a F1 for sure. The more generations down the road, the smaller they get, and they also lose the original traits of long legs, etc. Might as well become less energetic. Common house cats can go for as low as $5 at local animal shelters. I don't expect to get a F1 Savannah for anything less than 4 digits no matter how good the deal is. It is a mini leopard we are talking about.

For those people who have had dreams of getting a leopard or other big cats, Savannah cat is a nice substitute. Get F1 for sure. Size of a small leopard, yet sociable like dogs.
