SAVANNAHS ARE A HYBRID CROSS BRED DOWN FROM AN AFRICAN SERVAL AND A
DOMESTIC CAT. THE GOAL IS TO GET THE LOOK OF A WILD CAT IN A DOMESTICATED
BREED. THEY ARE LARGE, ABOUT 15-20# AND VERY GENTLE. THEY HAVE SCATTERED
SPOTS ALL OVER THEIR BODY, TEAR DROP MARKS COMING FROM THE CORNERS OF
THEIR EYES, TALL EARS, AND A LONG, SLEEK, LEGGY FRAME. EGYPTIAN MAUS, DSH,
OCICATS, BENGALS, AND ORIENTAL SHORTHAIRS WERE USED TO DEVELOP THIS
BREED. ASIAROSE EXOTICS WILL FOCUS ON SAVANNAH TO SAVANNAH BREEDING
IN OUR PROGRAM. SAVANNAHS ARE CONSIDERED "DOG-LIKE" IN THEIR PLAY AND
INTERACTIONS WITH PEOPLE. THEY ENJOY TOYS, GAMES, AND WATER LIKE THE
BENGALS AND CAN BE TRAINED TO WALK ON A HARNESS AND A LEASH. THEY
SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED OUTSIDE UNATTENDED.
OUR SAVANNAHS LIVE IN THE HOUSE WITH US AND OUR OTHER BENGALS WE HAVE.
THE BABIES ARE BORN AND RAISED/SOCIALIZED IN HOME WITH THE REST OF OUR CATS.
WE LET THE MOM'S RAISE THE BABIES UNTIL THEY ARE WEANED, BUT WE HANDLE THE
BABIES EVERY DAY FROM BIRTH. THEY USE THE LITTER BOX, EAT PREMIUM CAT FOOD,
ALTHOUGH THE EARLY GENERATIONS REQUIRE MORE MEAT IN THEIR DIET. THEY ARE A
GENTLER TYPE OF HYBRID AND DO WELL WITH FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN. SAVANNAHS
MATURE AT 3 YRS AND WILL KEEP GROWING AND FILLING OUT UNTIL THEN. THE HIGHER
PERCENTAGE OF SERVAL, THE BIGGER AND WILDER THE LOOK OF THE SAVANNAH.
SIZE AND EXOTIC FEATURES TYPICALLY DECREASE WITH EACH GENERATION.
