How do I recognise a reputable
Savannah cat breeder?
If you decide to take a pet as a new
family member it is always important to
find a repu- table breeder. For getting a
Savannah cat it is even more important.
As they are hybrid cats with special
requirements, it is critical to have a
breeder with a huge knowledge about the
breed. The breeder should be willing to
offer expert advice and be available in the
future to discuss any problems any time.
As basic re- quirements, the cattery must
be clean and well-organized and the
kittens have to be
well-socialized with a health certificate
and a pedigree of an acknowledged cat
association.
But the most important thing is that you
feel a huge portion of respect and love for
the Sa- vannah breed and the cats. You
must feel that the breeder is not selling
you just something but your friend which
will accompany you for thenext 20 years.

The serval is an African wild cat

the Portuguese word ‘lobo-cerval’
meaning lynx. The fur of the serval is
