The Kitty Thread...

My fav of the group.
 
I wish my kitties could go outdoors so I could get some outdoor shots with them.
 
He's a brat, but oh so precious. That pic is from the end of October, so he's gotten a lot bigger. I dunno how (fast) cats grow...is he a preteen now?
3 1/2 months old.

Not sure about regular old Feline Domesticus.... Savannahs take three year to reach full size and maturity... I would think that is probably true of most cats.
 
Glad I'm not the only one taking lots of cat photos!

Cgipson, I'm not sure if I missed your response, are Savannahs exotic, do you need a license or anything for them?

That's been my experience as well. They get taller and longer till they're about 2, and then they fill out and do ninja training for another year. :-)

We take ours out on leashes.. they learn to walk on them fairly well. They love going to the park!

You must have missed it.. no problem!

Repost:

They are exotic hybrids.. and it depends on where you live. In some states and counties / cities... they are illegal to own. Most of Florida is ok.. a lot of breeders there that I know also. You have to be careful who you buy from. This breed needs to be very well socialized and loved starting as tiny kittens, or they can be standoffish. But they are awesome once you win their hearts... almost more like dogs. They will come when called, and meet you at the front door. Some of them love to play fetch.. and will use you as a toy to play with also (extremely careful with thier claws.. they know they can hurt you, and DONT!). Extremely high energy.. always running. You have to Cat-Proof your house.. as they will be on every shelf and high up place, and love to knock things down. Love them! :) But they are definitely more work than a regular cat! Not cheap, either! :)
 
Ok thanks. How "not cheap" are we talking? lol.

Anywhere from $750 and up for an F5 or F6 (5th or 6th generation - Low percentage of the Serval ancestor) to $10-15 thousand for a really good High percentage F1 (first generation - breeder quality). Koko and Raja are both F4's... about $1500. There are breeders out there with inferior cats... either poor breeding, or unsocialized unfriendly cats... that will sell for less. But a good, established breeder that really works at it? Those prices are about the norm.
