Griffin Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I reckon my Joe would give her a run for her money, he's very very tall. Must remember to measure him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Thats one stunning cat but I wouldnt want to be around it if it turned Its bigger than my dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Aren't they gorgeous? A mere snip at $7000-$22000 . Couldn't find any prices in the UK. Absolutely stunning cats though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I think they are beautiful but do wonder if they could 'turn' as they are so close to the wild cat. I joked to OH that I'd seen a picture of my next cat. He said I already know you want a Maine Coon its sunk in at last He thought the Savannah was beautiful too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janty Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Gorgeous cat but did you see that tail swishing? I reckon they stopped the camera just in the nick of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Gorgeous cat but did you see that tail swishing? I reckon they stopped the camera just in the nick of time. I'm glad you said that Janty, I thought the same That was one irritated cat and being not too dissimilar from a leopard, I don't fancy the young lads chances It is a beautiful animal though, although I am not sure I'd want one in my house, I'll stick to my tabby cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffyfeet Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Been doing a bit of 'looking into' these beautiful animals. The one on the clip is an F1 which I believe is a first cross between a Savannah and a Serval, hence the size and 'wilder' look about it. It is recommended that for one to be a pet they be at least F3, probably because the 'wild' DNA is more diluted. They are also smaller but still beautiful and are highly intelligent, will play like a dog, fetch etc. Prices in the UK seem to be from around the £500 pound mark and there are not many breeders. Would definitely love one though. I think my very large moggy knows I am interested in another cat as he has just come and sat on my workstation and is now staring at me and purring loudly - and a headbutt too - bless him!
