Bodhi is a 10 year old F3 neutered male, located in Tiburon, CA. He is reported to be very social and friendly but prone to overstimulation. He is being surrendered because his living conditions simply are not meeting his needs. He needs more space and he needs more company.?

Previously he had lived with an Abyssinian happily although being a larger cat (~16lbs of lean muscled cat) he could at times play too rough with the older cat. For this reason we would prefer that Bodhi go to a home with either a very patient stoic cat or with a similarly high energy cat that would be up to his level of play. Bodhi has been known to bite his owner, she and her vet have determined that it was related to territorial issues as the space is very small and Bodhi seems frustrated if his perceived space is invaded. It may also be a buildup of energy with the lack of space to run and lack of companion kitty to expend his play energy on, but for this tendency to nip and bite Bodhi cannot go to a home with small children (less than 10 years old). Bodhi has not lived with dogs, and has appeared scared of them when he has seen one in the past. It is possible with the right introductions, a calmer large type dog might be fine but smaller dogs would likely not fit well.

Bodhi is in excellent health with regular vet visits, up to date on vaccinations, teeth cleaned and comes with health insurance that can be transferred to a new owner. He can also come with a collection of toys, beds, cat tree, food and litter. His adoption fee is $250 and he is not available for shipping. The owner wishes a local home.

If you feel your home would be great for Bodhi, please email info@... with your location, and a description of your household and how it would fit Bodhi's needs.

Rico is a handsome young Savannah male recently brought into Marine Humane Society by concerned neighbors who noticed that he was seemingly homeless. Rico has no microchip and does not seem to have anyone looking for him. He is currently being FIV/FeLV tested, neutered and vaccinated and will be available for release to Savannah Rescue only, please do not contact MHS about him.

We do not have any background information on Rico, we don't know if he is good with children, dogs or other cats. As he seems to be a young cat he is likely still quite adaptable, and once his hormones have dissipated after his neuter we anticipate him being easy to integrate into a household. He is however a young Savannah male hence he is likely energetic and interactive and would not be suitable with older cats that may not appreciate his ebullience. He is reported to be quite handeable and sweet with people, even in the stressful shelter environment.

As Rico is in a shelter situation, there is no ability to get him to an airport for shipping, hence he is available only to local homes that can drive to pick him up in a timely manner.Because there is still the possibility that his owner might be located, we will require a home to foster only initially, with the ability to adopt Rico if the owner is not found. His adoption fee would be the standard $200 at that time.

Please email info@... if you would like to offer Rico a home. Include your location, your ability to pick him up, and a description of your household and why it would be a good fit for Rico.

Thanks,

Brigitte

A bonded pair of Savannahs, a neutered male F2 and spayed female F5, have need of a new home asap. Their owner has passed away and his sister lives in Hawaii so cannot take them. To date we only have information about the breeder of the F2, Select Exotics, and they have failed to respond.

The only pictures we have are attached, we have little information beyond the information that they are "super friendly and well-behaved". I do not know if they are familiar with other dogs or children.

Please email info@... if you are within driving distance and are willing to foster these cats in a spare room, &/or are interested in adoption of them. Please do not offer if shipping is required, we have no ability to get them to an airport.

Please include in the email your location and a description of your household if wishing to adopt or information about the room you might spare if offering to foster.

Nala is a loving and friendly Savannah female, a delight to her current foster home who discovered her in a local shelter that is not hybrid friendly. Some questioning confirmed that this girl is from AAASavannahs (Paul Beeson), a defunct cattery. She is currently located in Shillington, PA.?

Unfortunately, veterinary examination of Nala detected a heart murmur, and a consultation with a veterinary cardiologist has diagnosed Nala with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common of feline heart diseases. Medication has stabilized her condition, she is easy to medicated, but we cannot know how much this will affect Nala's life expectancy. A new home should do some research into this disease to know what this entails.

Nala loves people but is not too interested in other cats. She would do great as an only cat, but should really only live with one or two other cats that are not too interactive as she doesn't wish to be close friends with other cats. We do not know how she is with dogs or children but her friendliness to adults probably means she would be a good fit with at least children older than toddlers.

Nala is not available for shipping, the foster home would prefer that she not have to travel too many hours from their home as they worry about the stress of the journey with her heart condition.

If you feel that you could offer Nala a great home, please email info@... with your location and a description of your household and how it would suit Nala.?

Isabella is a 4 year old spayed snow Savannah female from F1Hybrids, who will not be taking her back. Isabella is up to date on her FVRCP vaccine but not Rabies.

Her owner contacted us last year to surrender a pair of Savannahs, because the male Savannah was spraying in response to moving into a home with another cat. It seems that she did rehome the male by himself though, and now wishes to surrender Isabella. Although the situation improved, the two female cats do not get along and one of the cats is still marking in the basement occasionally. We have no feedback on what has been tried to resolve the issue unfortunately.

Isabella is reported to be social and like to be around people but not be picked up. She is said to love water, and brushing teeth with her human, and gets along well with dogs. She has not been around children so we would not recommend with young children, but older children that know appropriate play with a cat should be fine. We feel that she was happy living with one other cat (the Savannah male) so with appropriate introductions she should be able to live with one other cat, preferably a neutered male. If there is another cat then the personality of that cat will be important to the possible outcome.

This is one of our rare cases where shipping will be available to the right home, although of course preference to a local home will be made. The owner feels that she would be prepared to arrange shipping (at the adopter's expense) if that would find her the right home.

Skippy is a 2.5 year old neutered male said to have a Savannah and a Junglebob parent. The breeder is not known to us nor are they searchable on the internet so we have not been able to verify the parentage. There were of course no papers. Skippy does have a bobtail but no polydactyl paws. He is located in Berkeley, CA.

Skippy is a friendly cat that got along just fine with the household dog and older cat, then about 7 months ago a kitten was introduced. That was thought to be fine but two months ago Skippy started peeing in the house once a day and the owners think it is jealousy of the kitten or a "wild cat thing". They feel that they have tried all they can (they did have him checked out by the vet) and that he needs a new home. Hence we cannot pinpoint the source of Skippy's behavior.

In terms of a new home, given that Skippy lived fine for years with a dog and cat, we feel a home with other pets would be fine with the appropriate slow and thoughtful introduction. Care should be taken to avoid stress and work on any issues that arise. We cannot know what the cause of Skippy's inappropriate urination issue is, so the new home would have to be willing to work on this if it occurs.

Skippy lives with an older child hence probably any child over 8 years of age will be fine. Skippy is known to play rough with the cat and dog hence a very young child may not be a good idea for him. He does not like to be picked up and prefers to choose when he is petted.

If you feel that your home would be perfect for Skippy, please email info@... with your location and a description of your home and why it would be great for Skippy. Skippy's adoption fee will be $200. He is not available for shipping at this time.

Leopold is a handsome energetic 5 year old F2 neutered Savannah male, currently still in the surrendering owner's home in Navarre, FL.

Leopold is being surrendered mainly for the issue developing between him and the other resident cat, an F6 female Savannah. It seems that Leopold plays too rough for her, and this becomes worse when he is not getting enough exercise through other play, he turns to wrestling and does not let up. The other cat now runs at the sight of him. Additionally, recently he scratched their young child, seemingly without cause (although this has never happened before in the previous years). They feel he would do better in a home without children, or with older children (>8 years old). Recently (February 2017), he has had surgery to remove what was thought to be an obstruction, although when operated on the lump had moved to the colon and appeared to be a clump of fur. Leopold is also known to pee outside the box when stressed by any change. He does require a large tote box as litterbox as he is a larger cat. We had communicated with the owner previously (last year) about litterbox issues, but were able to resolve them with some suggestions about litter and box size and location.

When Leopold was 6 months old, he broke a rear leg that was pinned to heal. While this was successful, it has resulted in signs of early arthritis in that leg. He is currently healthy and up to date on vaccinations, and recently had his teeth cleaned. Generally he is reported to be friendly and playful with his family, but of course takes some time to warm up to strangers.

Leopold would do great in a home prepared to give him lots of activity and play, an outdoor enclosure would likely be perfect for his needs but is not required. Leopold has not lived with dogs, but with a thoughtful introduction I think it could work. If there is another cat (s) then they would need to be of a personality able to withstand rough play as this is a stated issue with Leopold. We would be concerned about older domestic cats etc in this case.?

The new home would need to pickup from Navarre, FL. No shipping is available at this time. If you think your home is suitable for Leopold, please email us at info@... with your location and a description of your household to introduce yourself. His adoption fee will be $200.

Titus is a 3 year old Savannah male located in Denver, CO. He was abandoned at a shelter with a note giving some basic information. He is intact so will be neutered before release to us.

The note said that he was being surrendered for litterbox avoidance. Of course, we think a major factor in this is that Titus is three years old and not neutered. So we do expect this behavior to resolve but would expect a new home to be prepared to work with this issue for the coming weeks as the male hormones dissipate from his system (decreasing his need to mark his territory). He is reported to be F2 or F3 but from the one picture we have of him it is likely that he is F3. Titus is reported to be friendly with his owners and their children (7-12 years old) but takes a while to warm to strangers and other cats and dogs. He has not reacted well to the shelter environment but we often see that with a high energy breed such as the Savannah, they don't do well in small cages.

We would need a potential home to be able to get to the shelter in Denver, CO. Please don't ask us to ship him, we are not there to do so. We think that a home with children 7 or older should be fine, and a home with a small number of cats and dogs could work as long as the home realizes that it will require a patient and slow introduction.

If you think that your home would be great for Titus, please email us at info@... with a description of your household, and some information on how you would anticipate dealing with his introduction. Please also include your location and willingness and ability to get to Denver CO in a timely fashion. Note that Savannahs are not allowed in Denver itself.
