On behalf of Brigitte, my fellow Rescue Director, and Mary Jo, our Foster Coordinator, I would like to welcome all of the new members to this Yahoo group.
A few things to note, first, this group is set up for the purpose of announcing Savannahs looking for new homes. ?Sometimes these are few and far between and sometimes, for some reason, we will have 2 or 3 kitties in Rescue all at once. ?Currently, we do not have any Savannahs for adoption. ?Because we use this Group for the purpose of announcing available Rescue Savannahs and nothing else, there is no general chat on the group. ?We are the only ones who can post here. ?If you are looking for general information about Savannahs, we would suggest joining the Savannah Chatter and Savannah Cat Pets groups (-:
We so not accept Adoption Applications until we have a candidate for adoption. ?This is because we are all volunteers with outside jobs and lives and it became to hard to keep all the applications orderly. ?When we make an announcement we will ask you to contact us and then send an application.
Often we are asked how much adoption fees are. ?They generally the same as for any of purebred breed rescue. ?We do not make any money running Savannah Rescue and usually the adoption fee is equivalent to what we have spent transporting and/or vetting the candidate for adoption.
We rarely get in kittens, and the generations we have had surrendered vary from F1 down to F6. ?They are surrendered for various reasons, as are all cats and dogs that end up in rescue.
I hope this answers some of your questions (-:
Please keep this list on daily emails so that you can know immediately when we do have a kitty available for adoption, as you can imagine, they are adopted very quickly (-:
