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.

*** A HAPPY ENDING to NIKA"s STORY*** Nika has found a new family to love her -- and right in her home town ! She will be moving to her new home shortly and thank you to everyone that was interested in her and wanted the best for her.?:)

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.

Nika was taken by her original owner to the vet and her owner abandoned her there and never picked her up. She had been identified by this owner as a spayed female F4 savannah. ?A worker at the hospital felt badly for her and took her home but now that family is having problems living with her since they had a new baby.

Nika is not happy. ?Besides the new baby, there is another cat in the house and Nika doesn’t always use the litter box. If laundry or other items are left on the floor she will urinate on them. She will also defecate on the floor for no apparent reason. ?She tries to be good for long periods of time, but then something upsets her and she starts going outside the litter box again. To investigate the reason for her inappropriate urination her owners took her to the vet to find out that she had urinary crystals and kidney stones. These stones can be very painful and are often the reason a cat will stop using the litterbox. But now that the habit has started, it has become behavioural as well as health related. She has been on medication for the stones plus she will need to remain on a veterinary diet (science Diet C/D) ?for the rest of her life to prevent reoccurrence of them. Nika will also scratch on the door moldings when she is kept out of a room or when she is stressed.

Her current owners say that she is as sweet as they come. She is gentle with their new baby and friendly to the whole family. She likes to play in water as you can see in the pics. ?She is quiet and sometimes likes to sit in your lap. She also will follow you around the house. She does not bite and is playful and a joy, and except for the above problems they would keep her.

Nika is going to be 10 years old this year and will come with all of her veterinary records. She is located in Tomball Texas. Savannahs are banned in many counties in Texas. If you live in this state please check this link to see if they are banned. If you are in an county that allows ownership you will be responsible for acquiring a permit to own Nika before she can move to your home. www.hybridlaw.com/texas

The ideal home for Nika would be one that doesn’t have a lot of activity going on. A home with roommates that are coming and going, or large noisy parties, or people that are out of town a lot would not be an ideal home. Young children running around and playing would not be a good fit with Nika. If there is another cat it should be a submissive, mellow natured cat and Nika would need her own litterbox. Nika gets along well with the current cat and they play together but perhaps there is some dominance issue going on that is causing her to defecate and urinate outside the box at times. ?If there are children-- an older, only child would be a perfect fit. Nika has been exposed to a dog (Chihuahua) but the dog just stressed her out and she wasn’t happy at all. Nika ran and the dog chased. It is possible this is also one of the reasons for her acting out? ?Perhaps if you have an old mellow dog that was quiet and left her alone it would be ok. And the ideal owner is one that is prepared to deal with a cat that may be prone to UTI’s and willing to keep her on a specialized diet and work on her litterbox issues and take her for all of her good qualities and have the patience and love to work on her shortcomings.

Nika’s adoption fee is $200. If you are interested in her please contact us at info@... and tell us about your home and location and why you would be a good place for Nika to retire and live out her life.?
