Sixth filial (F6) Savannah cats are meant to be similar to an ‘ordinary’ domestic cat. But I reckon hybrid vigour created a monster. The Savannah cat is a wild cat hybrid as you probably know. The F1 Savannah is half serval wild cat and half domestic cat. But at the sixth filial (6th generation from …
The answer to the question in the title is, YES. But the reason why I ask the question is because a lady on a page of mine about serval cats as pets said that “The Savannah, like servals, cannot be vaccinated for distemper, FeLV and other cat diseases which means they cannot safety be kept …

This video titled ‘Titan charms the children’ is intended to have a dreamlike, unreal quality. And the end is intended to add a bit of tension to a soft video, to give it a bit of bite, or an edge. Those then are the intentions and why it is what it is. Beyond this objective, …

Introduction Jan 2022 This is a page which celebrates the superb, and at the time in 2009, famous Savannah cat Magic (full name: ‘Scarlett’s Magic’). She was perhaps the most impressive domestic cat in the world at that time. Today, on January 23, 2022, I don’t know whether she is still alive. A quick search …
TITAN – a male F1 savannah cat in a pet store in the USA with his owner with still images from a video. The cat comes from A1 Savannahs. The still images are by Kathrin Stucki. I also present another video of Titan ‘entertaining the children’ which comes first plus some still images taken at …

The magnificent F1 Savannah cats, the most glamorous domestic cats of all. I focus on F1 Savannah cats bred by Martin and Kathrin Stucki at their cattery A1 Savannahs, in Ponca City, Oklahoma. This is the founding breeding cattery for this breed in the world. The breed itself was founded by Ms. Joyce Souffle and …

This is a very successful video of F1 Savannah cat Magic waking up Andreas who is the son of Martin and Kathrin Stucki. The video was made about 13 years ago! At that time Martin and Kathrin were the owners and managers of the well-known Savannah cat breeder A1 Savannahs. The breeders are still there …

This is a stupendous F1 Savannah kitten with a gorgeous spotted coat. All Savannah cats have spotted coats, inherited from the serval but this is a high contrast example in gray which looks amazing. The kitten’s expression is sweet and his body is plump and patently in excellent health. The video also indicates that he/she …
No, in general (with some exceptions), under normal circumstances, a Savannah cat will not protect you like a guard dog. I wouldn’t adopt a Savannah cat to protect me as it wouldn’t work. The question in the title is making presumptions which is why it has been asked. It presumes that we are referring to …
As the video presenter says, it is indeed a great shame that such a beautiful cat has been abandoned by his owners. Loki is a male, high filial (probably an F1 or F2) Savannah cat. This means that there is a lot of wild cat DNA or blood in this cat. This in turn means …
I am referring to domestic cats in this article as domestic cats interest most people but you can buy tigers etc. (don’t buy one, by the way). The most expensive domestic cats in the world are going to be the F1 wild cat hybrids such as the F1 Savannah and F1 Bengal. The F1 Savannah …
The great dilemma, as I have described, with respect to Savannah cats is that the higher filial variants of this breed need to get out of the house and explore the countryside or whatever else is out there. They are intelligent and active. They tend to escape the confines of their home and if they …
The reason why I like this cat, and I guess why she/he won the best of breed, is because the coat is unusual for a Savannah cat. The unusualness extends to the face. The picture caught my eye on Pinterest. It is a picture of an usual cat and a champion. I have seen lots …
No, but the question has to be more precise to provide a precise answer. This is because you can adopt an F1 or an F5 Savannah cat. The former is a first filial cat in which the father is a serval and the mother a domestic cat. The fifth-generation Savannah cat is pretty much like …
The size of Savannah cats depends upon how far removed genetically they are from the wild serval which is the wild cat element in all Savannah cats. To put it another way the size of individual Savannah cat depends on whether they are a first-generation (first filial or F1) from the wild or F2 and …
