Savannah cats are a spotted breed of domestic cat, with an elegantly tall, slender, and long body frame. The breed originates from an African Serval bred with a domestic cat. The first
generation of Savannah cats are referred to as 'F1' for first generation, and are 50% serval. An F1 female bred to a domestic or savannah male produces the second generation, referred to as F2s
(25-27% serval). Similarly, an F2 savannah female bred to another male produces F3s (12.5-14% serval). And so on.
Savannah cats are much more social than your average housecat and their behavior is commonly compared to that of a dog. Playing a game of fetch, learning to walk on a leash and splashing in
the bath tub is not at all unusual behavior for a Savannah cat. They are a very loyal breed and will usually follow their human companions around the house. Savannahs are athletic and
extremely agile with amazing jumping abilities, sometimes jumping over 8 feet high! Always looking for interaction, their playful antics will most certainly keep you entertained.
Savannahs get along well with children and dogs—as well as other cats—and would make a great addition to any family looking for an incomparable cat both in appearance and personality.
